At Via, our mission is to provide the best health and wellbeing support to as many people as possible, helping them to change their lives for the better. Last year, we supported over 11,000 people across the UK affected by alcohol and drug use. Everything we do is driven by our values: Care – care for people is at the heart of everything we do; Be human – we are accessible, genuine and humble, always learning; Do the right thing – we’re open, honest and inclusive, and we get things done.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-paced and growing organisation as a Harm Reduction Senior Practitioner for our Via Harrow service.

We are looking for an experienced practitioner with a passion for harm reduction who is eager to develop and advance the delivery of care in this senior practitioner role.

If you are compassionate, have good communication skills, and can stay calm under pressure, this role is for you.
