Senior Practitioner

Phoenix Futures is looking to recruit a passionate and solution focussed Senior Practitioner as part of our Building Futures service at HMP Pentonville. As a Senior worker you will have in-depth knowledge of recovery, care planning and relapse prevention activities. You will have line management duties and group interventions duties alongside holding a caseload of your own clients. You will develop and deliver interventions packages and will be confident in building and maintaining relationships with internal and external partnership agencies in order to fully support the client through their recovery.

As an individual, we are looking for someone who is self-motivated, can work on their own initiative, but more importantly, as part of a team. You will need good communication and organisational skills. Successful candidates will be dynamic and forward thinking with keen insight into preventative and early intervention methods. The ideal candidate will have experience of line management, safeguarding and working with vulnerable adults presenting with substance, alcohol and associated issues.

The Phoenix Futures Group has more than 50 years’ experience of developing and delivering pioneering substance misuse services. We believe in being the best and that is why we constantly strive to learn and innovate, to challenge ourselves, to adapt and to work together with others who can bring valuable expertise. Join us and we will support you to contribute to the creative development of our treatment and recovery approach to meet the needs of our service users, our commissioners and stakeholders.
