Recovery Consultants

(In-Home Support – Mental Health & Addiction Recovery)

Recovery Consultants | Flexible Schedule | W2 Employment

Recovery Consultants is hiring compassionate, reliable individuals to provide in-home recovery and mental health support as a Recovery Companion.

This is a non-clinical, one-on-one support role providing companionship, supervision, transportation, structure, and accountability for clients navigating addiction and mental health challenges.

We are not a gig platform. We are a mission-driven team committed to providing high-level, ethical, relationship-centered care.

What You’ll Do

  • Provide in-home supervision and supportive companionship
  • Transport and accompany clients to medical appointments, therapy, recovery meetings , errands, and activities
  • Support daily routines (meals, hygiene reminders, structure, planning)
  • Observe clients taking prescribed medications (no administration)
  • Reinforce accountability with scheduling and commitments
  • Report safety concerns and respond appropriately in emergencies

What We’re Looking For

  • 21+ years old
  • Reliable transportation or comfort using public transportation/rideshare 
  • Strong emotional intelligence and professional communication skills
  • Comfortable working inside clients’ homes
  • Ability to work flexible or extended shifts
  • Relapse Prevention

Who Thrives Here

  • Calm, grounded, and emotionally regulated
  • Professional and highly reliable
  • Comfortable in high-stress or dynamic environments
  • Purpose-driven and motivated by helping others
  • Open to feedback, learning, and growth

Why Work With Recovery Consultants?

We believe support work should feel supported.

When you join Recovery Consultants, you are part of a team not out there alone.

We provide:

  • W2 employment (not 1099)
  • Twice-monthly group trainings focused on skill-building and real-case scenarios
  • Ongoing leadership support and direct access to management
  • Professional development and growth opportunities
  • Clear communication and structured expectations
  • A culture rooted in integrity, accountability, and compassion

We invest in our companions because the quality of care our clients receive starts with the quality of support our team receives.

Compensation & Perks

  • Competitive hourly pay
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Reimbursable job-related expenses
  • Meaningful, mission-driven work
  • Opportunities for long-term placement and increased responsibility

If you’re looking for more than “just a job” and feel called to make a real impact in someone’s life we’d love to connect with you.

Apply today to join a team that is redefining what recovery support can look like.
