Recovery coach jobs

About the role:

At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we believe in the power of human connection to inspire change and shape futures. As a Project Worker at King George’s in Westminster, you’ll join a dedicated and forward-thinking team within our Multiple Disadvantage Services. King George’s is a 68-bed hostel and a key part of Westminster City Council’s Rough Sleepers Pathway, offering support to men with complex needs who have experienced prolonged periods of rough sleeping. Many of the people we support are navigating the impacts of long-term substance use, offending histories, and trauma that often began in childhood and continues to shape their lives.

This is a role where meaningful change happens every day - through conversation, connection and consistent support. You'll be working within a Psychologically Informed Environment (PIE), helping individuals move forward from deeply challenging circumstances towards greater health, independence and purpose. Whether you're building trust, supporting recovery, or guiding someone to find stability in housing and wellbeing, your work will have a direct and lasting impact.

It’s also the kind of role that builds you. At SHP, we invest in your growth just as much as you invest in the people you support. You’ll be part of a team that values creativity, resilience and compassion - where there’s space to develop, to lead and to build a truly rewarding career. If you’re looking to make a difference and grow in the process, this is where it starts.

About you:

• Previous experience of working in the health and social care, supporting vulnerable people, rough sleepers or people with complex mental health, physical health or substance use support needs. 
• An understanding of working with people using person-centred approaches. 
• The ability to manage a caseload and deliver positive outcomes utilising your knowledge of the health and social care sector. 
• A flexible and creative approach to working with a sometimes hard to engage client group.

About us:

Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.

We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.

We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.

Join us in creating a brighter, more hopeful future for individuals in need.

About Us

Millimetres 2 Mountains Foundation (M2M) is a charity dedicated to helping individuals rebuild their lives after experiencing physical or emotional trauma. Founded by former professional rugby player Ed Jackson and his wife, Lois, following Ed’s life-changing spinal injury, M2M uses the power of adventure, nature, and community to support people on their journey of recovery. 

At the heart of the charity lies the M2M Development Programme - a bespoke, holistic support system tailored to each beneficiary’s unique recovery journey. Through one-to-one mentorship, a nurturing community, and the transformative power of the outdoors (culminating in life-changing mountain expeditions abroad), M2M empowers individuals to rediscover purpose, rebuild confidence, and move forward with lasting resilience. We take on eight new beneficiaries each year, supporting up to 24 individuals at any one time. Guided by our ‘inch-wide, mile-deep’ philosophy, we focus on depth of impact over scale, ensuring each person receives the tools, encouragement, and care needed to create life-long change. This includes access to grants for physiotherapy, psychotherapy, job retraining, and any other support essential to their growth. Everyone is met exactly where they are, with a personalised plan that reflects their goals, challenges, and potential.

In addition to our core programmes, M2M runs Together Outdoors  - an initiative that harnesses the healing power of nature and connection through community-based mental health walks. Led by trained volunteers and Life Coaches, these walks offer safe, inclusive spaces for honest conversations, emotional support, and personal growth. Whether on a remote peak or a local path, M2M believes in the life-changing potential of movement, shared experience, and the great outdoors.

M2M is an inclusive, people first organisation. A core part of achieving our mission is that our workforce is diverse and reflective of the community that we serve. There will be no discrimination in our recruitment and selection processes, nor when considering pay and benefits. 

The Role

We’re seeking an organised, enthusiastic Community & Events Coordinator to help us deliver our Together Outdoors community walks and events, as well as key moments within our M2M Development Programme for beneficiaries.

We’re looking for someone kind, compassionate, and passionate about the outdoors and the power it holds to support mental health. You’ll be a clear communicator and natural team player - proactive, organised, and creatively minded when it comes to solving problems.

This is a brilliant opportunity to start or develop a career in the charity sector, particularly in events or community engagement.
