About the Role

We are looking for a compassionate and motivated Criminal Justice Recovery Coordinator to join our Criminal Justice team at NTRP.

You will work closely with a range of partner agencies including probation services, prisons, safeguarding teams and other community organisations to provide person-centred support and interventions that reduce harm and promote recovery.

  • Deliver harm reduction interventions and promote recovery-focused outcomes
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records using online case management systems
  • Support prison in-reach and positive community reintegration where required
  • Contribute to a positive team culture and uphold Waythrough’s values of kindness, courage and respect
