Rare opportunity: Help those affected by road crashes and create lasting change with Brake, the renowned road safety charity.

Who we are: Brake has been supporting victims of road carnage since 1995, and we're on a mission to prevent future collisions. Every 20 minutes, someone is killed or seriously injured on our roads, impacting lives profoundly.

Join our team: We're looking for a dedicated Bereavement Caseworker to join our dynamic, compassionate team. Your role will involve delivering world-class support services to those at their most vulnerable.

Not your average job: This isn't a 9 to 5. You could play a significant part in delivering trauma-informed support services nationwide. Make a real difference in the lives of those affected by road traffic collisions. 

What we offer:

• A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day shutdown period between Christmas and New Year. Pro-rata for part-time working patterns)
• An extra day off for your birthday to take whenever you choose 
• Enhanced sick pay and compassionate leave 
• Death in service benefit 
• Pension
• Employee Assistance Programme 
• Flexible working 
• Ongoing support and clinical supervision 
• Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees 

Who you are: We are looking for dedicated, adaptable and empathic people with a background in providing high-quality emotional support and advocacy. Experience gained in the following kinds of roles tends to transfer well to the role of caseworker at Brake: police force, roles within the criminal justice system, family liaison officer, counsellor, experience in health and social care or previous caseworker experience in any area. 

Specifically seeking candidates that have:

• A full clean UK driving licence, with your own vehicle and a willingness to use it for work purposes (travel expenses will be reimbursed)
• Located in the Devon and Cornwall area. You will support service users through their preferred communication method, which may be via Teams or telephone and there will be some face-to-face meetings with clients in their own home or safe meeting place
• Experience of frontline care for people in crisis with acute vulnerabilities and risks (desirable but not essential) 
• Comprehensive understanding of the processes involved in the criminal justice system (desirable but not essential) 
• Research and advocacy skills – you will reach out to other organisations to support your cases where required 
• Significant resilience, and willingness to be professionally developed and clinically supervised 

We are interested in receiving applications, not to the exclusion of others, from candidates with experience supporting people who have suffered sudden bereavement or working with those with heightened vulnerabilities. 

The greatest reward comes from knowing you have made a real positive difference to someone’s recovery from psychological trauma, and the emotional or practical challenges presented by their sudden bereavement or serious injury. 

If you are seeking out a new challenge and think you have the skills, passion, and commitment that we are looking for, we would be interested in hearing from you. 

About the team and how we work

Brake is passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that values diversity. We welcome your application whatever your background or situation. We particularly welcome applications from those who are part of the global majority, the LGBTQIA+ community or disabled. We are proud to be a disability confident employer. We don’t want you to ‘fit’ our culture, we want you to enrich it. 

So, if you have a passion for making a difference and share in our vision for a world where no one is killed on our roads, we would love to hear from you.

The successful candidate will be required to go through an enhanced DBS vetting process due to the sensitive nature of the service delivered.

We do not accept applications from serious traffic offenders due to the nature of our work. Candidates will be asked to disclose any unspent points at interview. Employees are subject to driver licence checks. 

To apply

Submit your CV and a covering letter which clearly demonstrate you have what it takes to perform this challenging and rewarding role.

Contract:  Permanent, part time  

Salary:  £18,963 - £22,050 per annum (£27,089 - £31,499 FTE) 

Location:   Homebased within Oxfordshire or Warwickshire 

Closing date:  Tuesday 24 September 2024 

Interview dates: 1 & 3 October 2024  

The Regional Adoptions Facilitator will be instrumental in streamlining our adoption services to maximise the number of horses we can help by 2026! 

More about the role

As Regional Adoption Facilitator, you'll collaborate with centre-based Adoptions Coordinators to swiftly execute the Blue Cross strategy, focusing on efficient horse adoption services, including home direct placements. You'll oversee the post-adoption process in your region, ensuring smooth ownership transfers after successful loan periods to expedite horse rehoming and optimize space for new cases.

Each day you will be conducting thorough home checks and visits—both in-person and virtually—for borrowers to uphold welfare standards and address any issues promptly. Collaborating with the Rehabilitation, Trainer, and Behaviour Advisor (RTBA), you'll manage challenging horse behaviours to support successful home placements. You'll also facilitate home direct rehoming initiatives, making critical decisions to match horses with suitable owners based on your expertise and ensuring ongoing support post-adoption.

To expand our impact, you'll recruit and manage a network of volunteers, including a regional volunteer manager, for home direct assessments and checks. This includes coordinating visits and appointments, fostering partnerships with external charities aligned with our home direct efforts.

Providing excellent client experiences is essential, ensuring every interaction covers all necessary information for successful matching and adopting horses into loving homes.

This is a home-based post with extensive travel. The nature of the post will require the coordinator to demonstrate considerable flexibility in arranging their work schedule and time allocation. This will include some weekend and evening work. Due to the nature of the charity’s work, it may be necessary to exceed these hours when the workload demands. The Regional Adoptions Facilitator will be required to use their own car in carrying out their duties and will be reimbursed for business mileage as appropriate. 

This is a part-time role working 26.25 hours over four days per week on a rota which includes weekends and bank holidays.  This role involves extensive travel covering areas such as Warwickshire, Nottinghamshire and across to Norfolk. 

 For a more detailed look at the role and its requirements, please see the attached job description.

About you

As this role requires coverage across specific regions, candidates must reside in either Warwickshire or Oxfordshire. You are an excellent communicator with experience in client-facing roles within horse-related environments. Your knowledge of horse welfare and riding will ensure successful adoptions. You can quickly absorb and record information while engaging with clients and stakeholders.

Client-focused and decisive, you handle pressure well and challenge risk-averse decisions using evidence-based methods. You follow set processes, adapt to new methods, and aim to improve horse welfare by maintaining high standards in the adoption process.

Strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential. You remain professional and approachable, handling difficult situations calmly. You are open-minded, adaptable, and able to communicate effectively with customers and colleagues.

Your skills allow you to assess support levels for horses and borrowers, identifying and addressing underlying issues. You support borrowers in maintaining high welfare standards.

Trustworthy and proactive, you approach your work enthusiastically. Your problem-solving mindset helps you find solutions and prioritize decisions with attention to detail.

Resilient and emotionally intelligent, you support clients and colleagues empathetically. Motivated, flexible, and dependable, you provide exceptional service to Blue Cross horses and customers, managing your workload effectively both independently and as part of a team.

Who they’re looking for

Our client is seeking a new Trustee with a public affairs background who is passionate about their vision, mission and values, to support the board and team in achieving their charitable aims.

They are looking for an individual with a strong background in the field of public affairs. This could have been gained through a position as an MP, through another role in Parliament or engaging with policymakers on behalf of the public, private or charity sector. Applicants should also have a strong interest in animal welfare and science, and be willing to advocate on the charity’s behalf.

Previous experience of being a Trustee is not necessary as a full induction and ongoing support will be provided.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

They want everyone they work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone they support, to feel included and that they belong at the organisation. They are committed to building a diverse organisation that represents the communities they serve and ensuring inclusion in everything they do. They will support you to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best.

Board meetings and time commitment

The Board ordinarily meets four times per year in March, May, August and November. Two of these meetings are held remotely via video call on a Saturday, and two are held in person in London across weekends. In addition, Trustees are encouraged to join a Committee relevant to their area of expertise which meets at least once per quarter via video call. An appropriate time commitment will be required over the course of the year for preparative work between meetings. Trustees are also invited to attend occasional charity events and join recruitment panels on an ad hoc basis.

Following a probationary period where Trustee-elects attend at least 3 board meetings, appointed Trustees serve a three-year term, with the option to renew for a further three years.

This is a relatively new Trustee role for the charity, therefore you will be expected to play a key role in shaping strategy and sharing knowledge and expertise with other Trustees. Trusteeship is an unremunerated position, though reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be paid.

If this opportunity to join a small but ambitious charity appeals to you, and you have public affairs expertise, enthusiasm and a commitment to their vision of a world where animal-free, human-specific technologies secure breakthroughs for patients then they’d like to hear from you.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
