This is not your average catering job. It is a great chance to put your catering qualifications and skills into practice and make an impact far beyond the kitchen. As part of the prison’s catering team, you’ll be working in a professional industrial kitchen environment, with a good salary, pension and Civil Service benefits including apprenticeship opportunities ‘earn while you learn’. Unlike traditional restaurant jobs, you won’t have to work late into the evening. You’ll oversee the work of offenders to prepare and cook quality, nutritional meals for the entire prison. Plus, you’ll play your part in helping them turn their lives around - supporting them to learn new skills and work towards gaining qualifications to increase their chances of employment and reduce their likelihood of reoffending when they leave prison. Hours and salary You will work a 37 hour week and shift patterns are in place which include hours outside of 7am to 7pm Monday to Friday, weekends and public holidays. You will receive a 20% unsocial hours payment in addition to your basic pay, subject to working these hours. All roles can be open to part-time and job share arrangements subject to the business need/operational requirement. However, you will still be required to undertake the full range of shifts. As a new recruit, you will start on the minimum salary.

Please Note: A Full UK Driving Licence and Access to a Vehicle is an Essential Requirement. The Herefordshire Recovery Service (in the West Midlands) works across the county to support people with alcohol or other drugs use, including people struggling with their mental health, housing, and those who are involved with criminal justice. We have several roles available to support our work to improve access to treatment and enhance the quality of service delivery. We are seeking people to join our team and help us deliver our vision to provide new opportunities to vulnerable people. As a Criminal Justice Recovery Worker within the Herefordshire Recovery Service, you will make a real difference as you empower and enable people to change. You will join an established, multi-disciplinary team of clinicians, recovery workers and peer mentors and be encouraged to work alongside a range of partners in criminal justice, housing and health and social care. You will have opportunities to progress your career with a structured learning journey and clearly defined career pathways that will enable you to achieve your long-term goals and work to your strengths. Whether you are looking to progress into a management and leadership role or to be a specialist in your field as an Advanced Substance Misuse Practitioner at Turning point we will support and encourage you on your career journey. Role Responsibility Recovery workers act as 'key workers' to a caseload of service users, supporting them to develop plans to achieve their goals, maintaining regular contact with your clients, offering advice, information and psycho-social interventions as well as providing assessments, risk management planning and working closely with our clinical staff and partner agencies. The Criminal Justice Recovery Worker will work in close partnership with local Probation and Police teams, supporting people who have been arrested and those receiving court orders for community treatment (including Drug Rehabilitation Requirements and Alcohol Treatment Requirements). You will be co-located with local services, delivering brief interventions, and supporting clients to engage in treatment.

We also look for candidates with excellent communication skills and who share our values as an organisation. We value individuals with lived experience but also those who are just interested in this line of work; our Trainee Recovery Worker program enables individuals without all relevant experience to gain an entry level position within the organisation before moving on to other roles. We value individual creativity and initiative and, whatever your role, you will be fully involved in identifying opportunities to improve the quality of our services and the service user experience. Your ideas will be listened to and your suggestions implemented wherever possible. You will be supported in your role by extensive training to help develop your skills.
