Vancouver, Canada Union Gospel Mission Full time

The Opportunity

Do you enjoy building relationships and fostering community? Do you have working experience with Recovery Coaching or Motivational Interviewing that you would love to share with our men in recovery? Do you appreciate working in a faith-based environment? We are looking for a committed Christian to act as a coach, mentor and role model to the men in our Recovery Program working some evenings and on the weekend when the men have time to participate. You will be a friendly, supportive and encouraging presence, seeking opportunities to speak with the men about various aspects of a recovery lifestyle and spiritual issues, and praying with them when that seems appropriate. Ideally, your own personal journey will include the lived experience of going through recovery.

Sometimes you will need to respond to unusual situations or crises, such as substance use or resident conflict, in a calm and level-headed manner. There will be other staff nearby to assist as required.

This is a permanent, full-time (37.5 hours per week) position. For a copy of the full job description, please click here. We offer a very competitive wage and you will qualify for extended medical and dental benefits after completing three months of employment. Wage starts from $28.96/hr - $31.64/hr.

Who We Are

Demonstrating the love of Christ, UGM feeds hope and changes lives through a faith-based continuum of care. We are a proud member of the Canadian Council of Christian Charities and have earned the Best Christian Workplace award again in 2021. We provide competitive salaries, generous vacation and sick leave, an RRSP matching program, as well as the potential for educational assistance. In addition, our extensive benefits plan is fully employer-paid and includes extended dental and medical, as well as $4,500 per year in pooled paramedical expenses. A focus on employee resilience, support for professional development, engagement in meaningful work, and a fun and caring environment are all part of being a member of the UGM team. If you are someone who desires to learn and grow, has a passion to serve and make a difference, and connects with others with both humility and humour, then you will be a great fit at UGM.

What You’ll Need

If you are considering employment with UGM, you must:

- be legally entitled to work in Canada.
- be able to demonstrate compatibility with our Core Values
