Role summary
In 2021, the UK Government launched “Harm to Hope”, a national strategic plan which committed to a focus on drug treatment and recovery. Harms from alcohol remain one of the biggest reversible causes of illness nationally and we know there are many people in Somerset who need more support.
We’re looking for an individual who is passionate about supporting addiction and mental health recovery, who can help Somerset Council to be a positive leader on this programme.
In this exciting role, you will be joining a strong, dedicated, friendly team in Somerset Council and will be working with engaged and committed partners across the health and justice system. You’ll lead on the development, coordination and delivery of Somerset’s Strategic Drugs and Alcohol Partnership, translating the national strategy into local action.
You will be supporting some of our most vulnerable clients, from children and young people to older aduits, who are often dealing with complex mental health needs and addiction. You will need to be ambitious and willing to develop strategies which positively support all individuals in need. In doing this, you will play a key part in improving health outcomes and reducing health inequalities, some of our central purposes with Public Health.
We’re looking for someone who can provide strategic thinking and provide whole system leadership. Using your expertise and enthusiasm, you will be driving multi-agency collaboration and influencing the development of key policies and strategies. You will be a key leader and influencer across Somerset’s public health landscape, fostering strong networks and ensuring coordinated efforts to reduce substance related harm.
This is a vital role in helping to achieve local Public Health aims across Somerset while contributing to national transformation. If you think you’re the person to help make this difference, then we would love to hear from you.
