About The Role
We are currently recruiting for a dynamic and committed individual to join our Criminal Justice Recovery Coordination Team based in Bishop Auckland. Our team provides support for individuals who are experiencing problematic substance use and are involved with the criminal justice system.
The Criminal Justice Recovery Coordinator role will ensure that we are able to provide specialist, tailored support to enable service users to make positive changes to their lives, whilst combining our knowledge and resources to support the engagement of individuals with a range of needs, within our communities. The role will be based in our centre at Saddler House, Bishop Auckland.
Working collaboratively alongside our partners National Probation Service, HMP Prison Service, Police and local Court’s teams you will support individuals who require additional intensive support to engage with treatment services.
- You will offer tailored guidance in minimising harmful behaviour and, if require, support those into service should they need more substantial support.
- You will take a “whole person” holistic approach, ensuring that every service user’s package of care encompasses all areas of their wellbeing, not just their substance use, with the aim of achieving the best possible outcomes for every person.

Waythrough (formerly Humankind) launched in October 2024 following the merger of Humankind and Richmond Fellowship. Our vision is to break down the barriers that stop people getting the support they need to live a life they value. We tackle poverty and disadvantage in communities, through mental health, drug and alcohol, housing and related support.
We have almost 200 services around England – and nearly 3,500 amazing staff and volunteers who run them. Every year our services support around 125,000 people.
Bringing together two big organisations is not a small task and it’ll take a while to fully integrate our systems, processes and approaches. That’s why you will notice the jobs here are still branded ‘Humankind’. Next year we’ll be fully integrating our recruitment systems but for now they are separate.
