Plus is one of the most respected Learning Disability and Autism Charities in London with a proud history stretching back more than 30 years.  We have an amazing team that is dedicated to supporting people to live their best possible lives and we have literally changed people’s worlds with the support we have provided.

Our Client Group is quite varied and during the recruitment process you would be specifically recruited to work with those that your personality, skills and experience would fit best with.  Some have really challenging behaviour, but unless you had the capability to best serve those people you would be assigned to a different group.  So, there is no need to worry about being out of your depth.

We also provide industry leading training and on-going support, so rest assured you will be ready for anything the job throws at you.  I cannot promise you it will be easy, but I can promise you it will be worth it.  And when you go home you will know you have made a massive difference and the world is a slightly better place as a result of your efforts.

What does matter is you must care and you must want to enhance the lives of the people who we support and rely on us.

You will need to be comfortable spending large amounts of your day one-to-one with the Service Users, there is no leaping from client to client here with 15 minute blocks.  You will need to be happy supporting people to learn new skills and become independent.  And you will need to thrive on taking people out into the big wide world, expanding their horizons, bringing a smile to their faces and adding a spring in to their step.

To be considered for the role you will need to be able to:

•  Do your share of weekend shifts, sleep-ins, waking nights and bank holidays.
•  Be physically fit and able to move freely and physically and to support service users who may be physically dependent.

About The Role

Are you ready to lead real change in one of the prison service’s most critical priority areas?

We are looking for a driven, experienced Drug Strategy Lead to shape and deliver a whole-prison approach to reducing drug misuse, supporting recovery, and improving rehabilitation outcomes.

This is a high-profile leadership role with real influence, working closely with the Governor, senior leaders, health partners and external agencies to turn national strategy into meaningful, on-the-ground impact.

What you’ll do

• Lead and deliver HMP Millsike’s Drug Strategy, aligned with HMPPS priorities and the Forward Trust’s rehabilitation mission

• Prison or secure-environment experience highly desirable

This is a unique chance to shape strategy where it truly matters, turning policy into practice, supporting recovery, and making a lasting impact on lives, rehabilitation and public safety within a new and ambitious establishment.

HMP Millsike is in a rural location; therefore, access to a car is preferred.
