Community Mental Health Recovery Support Worker

35 hours per week

We’re looking for a self-motivated, empathetic, and dynamic Community Mental Health Recovery Support Worker to join our one-to-one mental health support service.

You’ll be primarily responsible for supporting people to identify and meet their self-defined mental health needs and aspirations, to understand the range of options available to them, to support them emotionally, and to connect them with appropriate community resources and services.

The post involves working directly with service users, volunteers, and in partnership with colleagues across different sectors in Camden. You’ll be working collaboratively alongside partners and statutory providers to adapt the service offers to meet changing local needs. You will be contributing to the transformation of community mental health services across Camden.

The role requires someone who: is passionate about people being at the heart of their individual mental health recovery; is an excellent communicator – both orally and written; and enjoys working within a diverse and growing team. You will demonstrate a relationship-first approach, a strong work ethic, and have an embodied person-centred approach to mental health recovery work.

This post is funded until the end of March 2026, with a probable extension.
