Community Outreach & Engagement Worker
Be part of something new, bold and meaningful.

At Change Grow Live, we’re launching an exciting new service — the Liverpool River Service — and we’re lookingfor passionate people to help shape and deliver it from the ground up.

As a Community Outreach & Engagement Worker, you’ll play a vital role in connecting with individuals who are often furthest from support. Whether it’s people affected by substance use, street homelessness, or complex needs, you’ll be a visible, trusted presence — engaging people where they are, building relationships, and supporting them to access the help they need.

We Thrive by working together.

At Change Grow Live, we believe people thrive when they’re supported to succeed.
We recruit for potential, recognise and reward effort, and work in ways that are safe, healthy, agile and flexible.

• Everyone experiences a true sense of belonging, where every voice counts

• We engage and connect with each other at all levels

• Our people feel supported to grow, learn and thrive

• We live our values — being open, compassionate and bold — in everything we do

This is more than just a job. It’s a chance to create meaningful connections, help people take their first steps toward change, and be part of a team that genuinely makes a difference.

What you’ll be doing:

• Proactively engaging with people in the community who may not yet be accessing services

• Building trust and supportive relationships with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences

• Providing information, advice and guidance on harm reduction, treatment options, and wider support pathways

• Working flexibly across community settings, including outreach and street-based work, to meet people where they are

• Collaborating with partners and agencies to ensure seamless referrals and wraparound support

• Promoting our service through events, drop-ins, and local networks to increase awareness and reach
