Internally your job title will be Recovery Worker
You’re caring, flexible and creative, thrive under pressure, know how to connect with people at all levels and really enjoy helping others to live as independently as possible. You’d also like to be part of an organisation that counts on the professionalism, insight, expertise and passion of its staff to inspire individual recovery for the people they work with. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship’s Croft House as a Recovery Worker.
Right now, our Croft House Supported Housing service in Surrey is looking for Recovery Workers to support the people who use our services to maintain their tenancy and independence in the community. Not only are we committed to putting them at the heart of everything we do, we recognise they should be involved in decisions that affect their future too. That’s why we need you to inspire and support them to lead their own recovery. So, whether it’s helping to come up with a personal support plan that will see them achieve their goals and aspirations, developing domestic and finance management skills or accessing work, leisure or educational opportunities, your empathy, enthusiasm, and compassion will have every chance to shine.
Entering accurate case notes onto our IT system will be important too. And, when it comes to regularly liaising with GP surgeries, the local council, charities etc. or promoting the service within the community, again, we'll count on you.
No relevant experience is required as full training will be provided, although candidates with an understanding of mental health issues and/or lived experience would be welcomed. More important is your caring and compassionate nature and empathy and enthusiasm for helping others. Whatever your background, you’ll need to be happy to work both independently and within a team and willing to be part of a weekly rota system.
The post holders will be based at our Supported Housing Service in East Molesey.

About Surviving Economic Abuse
At Surviving Economic Abuse, we deal with one of society’s biggest issues. Last year, 5.5 million UK women reported that a current or former partner had controlled their economic resources – money and the things it can buy such as food, clothing, transportation, and housing.
Through economic control, abusers limit women’s freedom, they steal their futures, and, in far too many cases, they take their lives. Yet too few people are aware of economic abuse – even those who experience it.
We are the only UK charity dedicated to raising awareness of economic abuse and transforming responses to it. The speed and scale of our growth since 2017 are evidence of how much we are needed. We may be young, but we are already creating big waves.
What we offer you
We offer a range of benefits including:
-
25 days annual leave (pro rata), plus 5 Wellbeing Days (pro rata) and Statutory Bank Holidays
-
Flexible working
-
Working from home
