Our Employment Services offer tailored support and guidance to bring people nearer to and into work. Our package of support equips people to consider work as an option or to access training, education and volunteering. We support with CVs, interview skills, work experience to help people work towards the career they want.
About the Job
You will manage a team of IPS Employment Specialists, whose role is to support people in structured treatment for drug and/or alcohol use to assist them in securing sustainable, paid employment in line with their preferences.

You will work as part of a community of a drug and alcohol treatment provider, maintaining positive and integrated relationships, fostering a holistic approach to recovery through employment.
In addition to management responsibility, the role involves developing relationships with employers to ensure the people we support can capitalise on the development of employability skills and progress towards the labour market.
