We're looking for a Criminal Justice Recovery Worker to join a well-established substance misuse charity in South London.

The ideal candidate will have Criminal Justice experience , although they would also consider someone with a strong Substance Misuse / Recovery background who has a good understanding of the criminal justice system.

You'll be working with:

• Prison leavers
• Referrals from Probation
• Court referrals
• Clients with substance misuse and complex needs

A key part of the role will be producing reports for the courts, alongside managing a caseload, completing assessments and providing recovery-focused and harm-reduction support.

The role is based from the Croydon office , with regular visits to two local courts , both within walking distance of the office.

What they're looking for:

• Criminal Justice / Probation experience or strong Substance Misuse Recovery experience
• Understanding of the Criminal Justice System
• Experience working with complex needs and safeguarding
• Caseload management experience
• Strong report writing and communication skills
• Confident engaging with service users and partner agencies

Good onboarding and training provided - so candidates with strong substance misuse experience but less direct criminal justice experience will still be considered.
