U-evolve is an Edinburgh mental health charity for 11–21-year-olds. Founded in 2015, we support over 200 young people annually with free to access to mental health support. Each year we deliver over 1,000 hours of individual support to help Edinburgh’s young people feel better. We’re currently hiring for a Mental Health Coach to join our Service Delivery team.

About the role

We are recruiting for an additional Mental Health Coach to join our team to help us meet demand. The coach will provide 1:1 support for young people, as well as supporting our groupwork and drop-in programmes. Our Mental Health Coaching is person centered, strengths based and incorporates counselling, coaching and youth work approaches. The aim of all our support services is to help young people to have improved mental health and to feel better. Through mental health coaching we help the young people to learn techniques to manage their wellbeing and work closely with community partners to provide a holistic service.

Who are we looking for

We want to recruit people to join our team who share our vision, values, and passion to support young people to thrive. It is also important to us that you are someone who learns from the young people you support and can help our young people’s voices to be heard.

If you are looking for a rewarding career and to work within an epic team that will help you grow and thrive, then you have come to the right place. Here you can start your day knowing what you do really does make a difference! This is an opportunity to work in a collaborative and learning focused environment working alongside a multidisciplinary team.

Penumbra Milestone is a 10 bedded step-down service providing short-term care and recovery (for approx. 12 weeks) for vulnerable men and women aged 18+ with a diagnosis of alcohol related brain damage (ARBD).

The service is alcohol-free and promotes recovery from ARBD through a wide variety of group work and 1-1 support. We utilise our specialist ARBD Toolkit, as well as Penumbra’s wider HOPE toolkit and IROC (Individual Recovery Outcomes Counter), to support and encourage people to make positive changes in their lives. It is our goal to help people build resilience develop positive coping strategies to minimise the chance of relapse, increasing their chance of prolonged recovery from ARBD. During their stay, each resident benefits from the shared expertise of our multi-disciplinary team, with regular in-reach support from Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, Psychology, Social Work, Psychiatry and many other visiting professionals.

The service was developed to reduce the amount of time people with ARBD spend unnecessarily in acute hospitals, recognising that people with ARBD are often medically fit for discharge but due to cognitive impairment and ongoing addiction and social issues a return to the community is likely to lead to further A&E or acute hospital admissions. Addressing the needs of each resident in a holistic way with a focus on recovery, rehabilitation and re-enablement has substantial beneficial outcomes for the residents, their families, their communities and for acute hospitals and social services at a wider scale.

The service is a collaborative partnership between Penumbra Mental Health, NHS Lothian/Integrated Joint Boards and City of Edinburgh Council. Referrals come from acute and community hospitals in Lothian, with additional referrals from the regional alcohol detox unit.

We can offer you a tonne of employee benefits, and we can promise you’ll be inspired by some pretty amazing humans every single day. We will support you on your own career path; developing new skills, accessing formal and informal learning experiences and providing opportunities to put your continual progress into practice.
