Join us on our journey to empower over a million people to change their behaviours and thrive!

At Thrive Tribe we deliver award-winning healthy lifestyle and wellbeing programmes that make people happier and healthier! Its a super exciting time to join us as we deliver our Smoking Cessation support service across Hampshire and were looking for a Community Stop Smoking Advisor to join us!

Our programme is designed to support residents of Hampshire to access the support they need to stop smoking. This includes a range of approaches including the supply of Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRT) alongside high-quality behavioural support from our Stop Smoking Advisors.

This is primarily a face-to-face community-based role focused on delivering high-quality smoking cessation support to people across Hampshire. Advisors will manage a caseload of clients through their quit journey delivering one-to-one and group support in community settings and clinics with the ability to provide remote support where appropriate.

Youll be accountable for your performance across key stages of the client journey and will work towards agreed individual and service targets.

For people supported to quit smoking through the use of a vape quit aid where the risk of relapse is deemed low a vape cessation service will be offered and delivered. For residents who dont smoke tobacco but do use vape devices and wish to stop this role will also provide vape cessation support.
