At Change Grow Live, our values — be open, be compassionate, be bold — shape everything we do. Every day, our teams help people change the direction of their lives, grow as individuals and live life to its full potential.

We Thrive by recruiting for success, recognising and rewarding effort. We are safe, healthy, agile and flexible in how we work.

 

We’re looking for a passionate and motivated Hospital Liaison Recovery Worker to join our Barnet Service. With this role, you’ll be working as part of the Change Grow Live Hospital Liaison team, based within local hospitals and A&E departments, acting as a vital link between acute services and community drug and alcohol services.

 

You’ll work closely with hospital staff, building strong relationships across wards and A&E, offering advice, guidance and training on substance misuse, and helping identify alternatives to unnecessary admissions. You’ll also play a key role in supporting people who present repeatedly, working with wider services to understand what’s going on and what might help break the cycle.

 

 

 

AI can be a really helpful tool when putting together your application, and we're happy for you to use it. However, what we're most interested in is you.

 

We want to understand your experiences, achievements and strengths, so please make sure your application reflects your own story and clearly shows how you meet the essential criteria and the impact you've made in previous roles.

 

There's no need to write in a particular style. The strongest applications are those that are authentic, specific and clearly demonstrate your skills, experience and potential. We look forward to learning more about you.
