How to become a Safeguarding Coordinator

Considering a career as a Safeguarding Coordinator?

The charity sector tackles some of the world's most critical problems, helping vulnerable people and communities across the world. As such, there's a lot of room for human error. People get fatigued; they get overwhelmed. That's why it's so important to have proper safeguarding policies in place to ensure the safety of beneficiaries and instil a lasting public trust that inspires continued support.

As Safeguarding Coordinator, you'll be responsible for establishing this safeguarding groundwork. Working across the businesses with all departments, you'll support operations and programmes to ensure they're adhering to all the proper standards. A safeguarding coordinator role also involves presenting analysis and trends and advising on complex and high-risk safeguarding cases. Ultimately, you’re there to make sure everything is done above board and with the beneficiary in mind.
