Support, Time & Recovery (STR) Worker – Newington Community Mental Health & Wellbeing Service (CMHWS), part of our innovative, integrated model for North Solihull.
As an STR Worker, you’ll play a vital frontline role in helping people move forward in their recovery journey. You’ll work alongside a skilled and friendly multidisciplinary team to provide practical, social and emotional support to individuals in the community – empowering them to set goals, regain confidence, and connect with the opportunities and services that matter most to them.
This is a dynamic, hands‑on role where no two days are the same. You might be helping someone rebuild their daily routine, supporting them to attend appointments, or exploring new ways to enhance wellbeing and independence through creative, community‑based solutions.
You’ll hold a small caseload, allowing you to build real, trusting relationships and deliver personalised, recovery‑focused care in line with the CMHWS approach – combining compassion, collaboration, and practical problem‑solving.
Working within a fully integrated CMHT–NMHT team, you’ll be part of a service that’s breaking down barriers between pathways, improving access, and shaping a new way of delivering local mental health support.
Responsibilities
* You will ensure there are effective care pathways to a range of services that will enhance individual recovery. This will be achieved by ensuring close liaison with identified partners and community organisations including employment/training providers, housing and mental health services. You will also engage in low intensity psychosocial interventions with service users on your caseload, supported by clinical supervision provided by clinical leads and psychology colleagues within the MDT setting. You will signpost service users to the appropriate facilities and provide effective, time‑and‑need‑led support.
