Part of your time will be spent ensuring that Police colleagues have the information they need to effectively administer conditional cautions so you will work closely with Police, Hampton Trust to develop different training elements, a willingness to develop and deliver this material is essential.
A relevant qualification in VAWG is essential, as well as willingness to undergo Police vetting.
