Job Introduction This exciting new development within Lincolnshire, based in Grantham, welcomes enthusiastic and experienced applicants to apply for this rare opportunity to be involved in shaping a brand new pilot service that will support individuals stepping down from acute mental health wards to transition into the community. The service will be delivered in partnership with Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Trust and will form part of the NHS Mental Health Pathway. The service will be going live in October 2025, with a full training and induction programme for the team, commencing prior to go live. At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As a Recovery Worker, you'll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the scope and support individuals to gain the skills to live independently. With an emphasis on key working, you'll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service. Role Responsibility Raising the bar for person-centred care, you'll provide a range of recovery focused support through key working sessions and group work. People's lives will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills and help them find ways to promote their long term recovery. As a Recovery Worker, you'll work with individuals on their recovery, devising individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective discharge planning. Ultimately, you'll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence. The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota which includes evenings, weekends and waking night shifts. The Ideal Candidate Ideally with experience in the mental health sector, it's essential that you have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution-focused attitude and a person-centred approach. You'll be equally comfortable getting things done on your own initiative and as part of a team, and have no problems working in a fast-paced environment and adapting to challenging situations. And of course, you'll be the sort of person who enjoys talking to people with different needs, is genuinely interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience. About us As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer. We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people. We never stop believing in change for the better, and we work constantly to improve the lives of the people we support. What Benefits Will I Receive?

At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with mental health issues. As a Recovery Worker, you'll make a real difference to their lives as you work closely with them to help them achieve their potential. Passionate about people, you'll enjoy the scope and support individuals to gain the skills to live independently. With an emphasis on key working, you'll need to work flexibly to manage your own small caseload and help with the day to day running of the service. Role Responsibility Raising the bar for person-centred care, you'll provide a range of recovery focused support through key working sessions and group work. People's lives will be truly changed by you as you enable and prepare them to gain new skills and help them find ways to promote their long term recovery. As a Recovery Worker, you'll work with individuals on their recovery, devising individually tailored support and risk management plans and ensuring effective discharge planning. Ultimately, you'll play a vital role in helping them to gain skills and coping strategies, all while encouraging positive change and independence. The role requires you to work on a 24-hour rolling rota which includes evenings, weekends and waking night shifts. The Ideal Candidate Ideally with experience in the mental health sector, it's essential that you have a good understanding of the recovery model, together with a solution-focused attitude and a person-centred approach. You'll be equally comfortable getting things done on your own initiative and as part of a team, and have no problems working in a fast-paced environment and adapting to challenging situations. And of course, you'll be the sort of person who enjoys talking to people with different needs, is genuinely interested in helping them, and possesses a deep level of empathy, understanding and patience. About us As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer. We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people.
