Recovery Motivator (Duty)

 

Every day, people take brave steps towards the future they want. Sometimes that starts with making a phone call, walking through a door, or asking for support for the first time. 

 

That's why we're looking for a Recovery Motivator to join our East Sussex team. Someone who can create a warm welcome, build trust quickly and help people feel confident about what comes next. 

This is more than a front-line role. It's an opportunity to be the person who helps someone feel heard, understood and supported at a time when it can make the greatest difference. 

If you're someone who enjoys connecting with people, thrives in a fast-paced environment and believes in the power of possibility, we'd love to hear from you. 

 

As a Recovery Motivator within our duty team, you'll play a key role in shaping people's first experience of our service. 

You'll be the friendly face, reassuring voice and trusted point of contact that helps individuals access support, understand their options and begin moving towards the goals that matter most to them. 

Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, you'll help create an environment where people feel respected, valued and empowered to take positive steps forward. 

Your impact will include: 

• Creating welcoming and positive first experiences for people accessing our service.

• Helping people access the support, advice and interventions most relevant to their needs. 

• Supporting individuals to navigate services and make informed choices about their next steps. 

• Promoting wellbeing, safety and harm reduction through compassionate and non-judgemental conversations. 

• Working collaboratively with colleagues and partner organisations to achieve the best outcomes. 

• Contributing to an inclusive service where every individual feels respected, heard and supported. 

No two days are the same, and that's part of what makes this role so rewarding. 

 

You believe that every person deserves to be treated with dignity, compassion and respect. 

You enjoy working with people and bringing warmth, energy and positivity to your interactions. 

You know how to listen without judgement, communicate clearly and build trust with a wide range of people. 

You might already have experience in health, social care, customer service, community services, peer support or the voluntary sector. Equally, you may bring valuable lived experience and the ability to engage and inspire others through your own journey. 

Most importantly, you're someone who: 

• →Builds genuine connections with people from all backgrounds. 

• →Sees strengths and potential where others may only see challenges. 

• →Stays calm, organised and adaptable when priorities change. 

• →Enjoys working as part of a supportive and collaborative team. 

• →Brings empathy, curiosity and a desire to help others succeed. 

• →Takes pride in making a positive difference, however big or small. 

 

This is more than a role where you support change. It's a place where you can continue your own journey too.
