Senior Recovery Case Manager

Williamsburg House is a long-term recovery residence in Brooklyn. We’re hiring a Senior Recovery Case Manager (substance use) to guide a caseload of 8 to 12 clients through the arc of early recovery post treatment: stabilizing, rebuilding relationships, taking on responsibility, and moving toward independence. On-site, ~40 hours/week, combining case management days with residential shifts (nights, weekends and holidays included). $31.25 to $36.00/hour ($65,000 to $75,000/year annualized) Why this role A focused caseload. Enough time with each client to manage the case with close attention and follow-through. Real judgment. You shape the direction of cases, not just execute someone else’s plan. Autonomy without isolation. Weekly clinical supervision, clear escalation pathways and colleagues to think with. Time to see growth. Clients stay long enough for you to watch the progress you helped create.

You’ll lead during difficult moments, consult on other case managers’ cases, mentor staff, help hire and onboard, and own a program improvement. You’ll also join the on-call rotation and help the Director keep operations steady. This is an advanced practitioner role, not a people manager role. Leadership is an available path, not a requirement. What you bring3 to 6 years in addiction treatment, recovery services, sober living or behavioral health2 to 3 years of independent responsibility for moving clients forward over time (referral-only work doesn’t count) Experience with co-occurring conditions, medications for addiction treatment, relapse response, discharge planning and the continuum of care Comfort with LGBTQIA+ clients and clients of all identities, and a commitment to affirming, non-shaming care We’d especially love: a sober living or residential background; a credential such as CASAC-T/CASAC, CARC/CRPA, ARISE/CIP or LMSW (strong experience can stand in for a credential); familiarity with 12-step, SMART and Dharma; trauma-informed care. Success looks like90 days: you own your caseload, can have hard conversations and know when to escalate.6 months: you’re a trusted voice in case conference and have taken on a program improvement.1 year: we rely on your judgment, your clients have made real progress, and you’ve helped a colleague grow. The reality: Recovery isn’t linear. Clients relapse, plans fail, and work sometimes spills into off-days. You’ll have clear escalation paths, shared crisis responsibility and a team to hand off to. Schedule and on-call: ~40 hours on-site, varied availability on days, nights, weekends and holidays. On-call 1 to 2 weekends a month, plus periodic coverage set by the Director.
