Job description

You don’t need a cape to be a hero. Just the heart to help others rise.

Deadline : 23rd July 2025

  • London
  • Full-time

Job overview

We’re proud to deliver IPS (Individual Placement and Support) a proven, evidence-based model that helps people with mental health and / or substance use challenges achieve their employment goals.

But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our clients have said :

I had been drifting and my confidence had sunk… IPS helped change my life.”

I got the help I was looking for… I found work after 17 years of being unemployed.”

Role

At Via, we believe that recovery from substance misuse is about more than treatment, it’s about rebuilding lives. That’s why our award-winning IPS Into Work team is dedicated to helping people find meaningful employment that supports their long-term wellbeing.

Responsibilities

Employment can be a powerful part of someone’s recovery journey. As an IPS Employment Specialist, you’ll be a key part of that transformation – helping people rediscover purpose, confidence, and independence through work.

Every day is different, but your impact will be consistent. You’ll :

  • Provide one-to-one, tailored employment support to people in recovery.
  • Work closely with clinical teams, support workers, and community partners to ensure a joined-up approach.
  • Build relationships with local employers to create inclusive job opportunities.
  • You don’t need to be an expert in recovery, we’ll provide full training.

    What matters most is that you :

  • Are compassionate, proactive, and a great communicator.
  • Believe in people’s potential to grow and succeed with paid work.
  • Want to make a real difference in your community.
