The Alcohol & Drug Service (ADS) are a registered charity who have been transforming the lives of people affected by drugs and alcohol misuse for over 40 years. 

East Riding Partnership (ERP) – is a partnership between ADS and Humber Teaching NHS trust.

It has three hubs, Hull, Bridlington and Goole.

It is multi-disciplinary team led by a consultant and provides treatment services in the community.

The services include aftercare, young people, community rehabilitation programme, a specialist supporting image and performing enhancing drugs/steroids and a team supporting service users and cares through a team of volunteers and peer mentors.

It is a very exciting time to be working in the drug and alcohol field, with significant new career opportunities being created.

There is an exciting opportunity to join an innovative team, based in Goole, on a part-time basis (0.8 FTE), for a fixed-term 12-month maternity cover.

The role will support service users with diverse and complex needs and their families with issues relating to substance use including alcohol.

The post would involve assessing need from a person centred and strength-based perspective.  You will have a good understanding of recovery and have a value base that stems from a strongly held working belief in individuals’ ability to change and live in recovery along with a desire to ensure each service user has access to the information and 'tools' needed to live a fulfilling life in recovery.

If you have relevant experience in the substance misuse field, a relevant degree e.g., psychology, sociology, social work or Diploma in Health and Social Care or equivalent we would like to hear from you.
