About us


Changing Lives is a nationwide charity helping people facing the most challenging of circumstances to make positive change - for good.

We believe that everyone deserves a safe home, a rewarding job and a life free from addiction or abuse. We know that given the right support, anyone can change their life for the better.


Our services across the country help thousands of people each year who are experiencing a wide range of complicated challenges, including homelessness, drug and alcohol addiction, unemployment, involvement with the criminal justice system, sexual exploitation and domestic abuse.

By focusing on their strengths, potential and opportunities, we support the people we work with to overcome their problems and live safe, successful, independent lives.


Our charity is powered by over 600 passionate colleagues who bring a diverse and inclusive environment for our colleagues to grow.

We are proud to say that many have actual lived experience of the challenges faced by those we support. We are looking for committed and compassionate professionals to join our team, who share our enthusiasm for changing lives.


About the Service - Treatment & Recovery Services
Our dedicated treatment and recovery services offer tailored support to help people challenge dependency.

We understand that recovery from dependency is a personal process, and we know that it is possible with the support.


At Changing Lives, we recognise that substance dependency is often something that emerges linked to life experiences and we are here to help people explore, make meaning and decide what changes they would like to make moving forward.

We work with people at every stage of their recovery journey. We offer an effective therapeutic support for people, and on-going support as life progresses.

We also support people to connect within their communities and to other services that can help with other issues arising, including employment, housing, family relationships, mental health and more.


About the Job
We are looking for a passionate and engaging individual to join us as a Team Leader.

The Team Leader will provide operational management, transformation and line management support across the Community Asset Team of North Yorkshire Horizons - Adult Drug and Alcohol Service.


This role will require some travel to our hubs and locations across North Yorkshire - we operate across North Yorks and would be flexible as to where this role is based.

Our main offices are located in Harrogate, Skipton, Selby Northallerton and Scarborough and we would expect this role to be agile with a mixture of home and office based working.


The Team Leader will provide day to day support for our front-line staff across the country, support the team to build and develop recovery communities across the country.


The Team Leader will be responsible for managing and leading on the development of an equitable and inclusive recovery community across North Yorkshire, working closely with staff to build a forward looking, dynamic and competent team within a culture of continuous performance.


The role involves working collaboratively with external partner agencies and services to provide interventions to support and motivate service users and meet their needs through all stages of their individual recovery journey.


The overall view is to support the development of a strengths-based, recovery-orientated, change and outcomes focused approach, based on personalisation, responsibility, co-production, community development, and partnerships.

Line management/leadership experience is essential.


If you are ready to make a positive difference as a Team Leader, then we would love to hear from you.
