Are you an experienced manager with a passion for supporting adults involved with community justice? If compassion, care and inclusiveness are important to you, we have an opportunity to work in a unique, dynamic, and challenging but emotionally rewarding role within a community justice residential service.
Turning Point Scotland’s Turnaround service is seeking an experienced manager to join the residential team. As a Service Co‑ordinator, you will be responsible for managing direct service provision within a residential facility. You will support the service manager by overseeing the delivery of a structured programme promoting change behaviour. The 6‑week programme consists of therapeutic interventions including an evidence‑based group work programme, person‑centred one‑to‑one support and a range of therapeutic activities and interventions.
Turning Point Scotland takes a citizenship approach to reintegration and believes that the values of respect, compassion, inclusion and integrity are essential to everything we do.
The Turnaround Service delivers focused interventions that address the complex and interrelated issues of offending behaviour and problematic use of alcohol and other drugs. A CBT approach is adopted to help increase an individual’s self‑awareness, self‑esteem and confidence. Self‑development and reflection are key to an individual when putting into practice the skills and learning achieved within the service which helps sustain a person‑centred recovery pathway and promote desistance.
Responsibilities
* Coordinate assessment, planning, delivery and evaluation of care and support within a residential environment to a high standard.
