At YMCA DownsLink Group,is to help children and young people have a fair chance to be who they want to be. We do this by providing a safe home, building life skills and self-confidence, and supporting emotional wellbeing and mental health.

Our Values - we do what’s right, we work with heart, and we build real connections - guide and shape how we show up for children and young people we support and for each other.

YMCA  works to prevent and disrupt the sexual exploitation of children and young people aged 5-25 across East Sussex, Brighton and Hove, and Surrey.

We are a specialist team of passionate, dedicated professionals who support each other to work in this challenging area.

We deliver trauma informed, consent-based work with young people, schools, statutory services and Sussex Police. The WiSE SOLAH ("safer online at home") project focuses on one-to-one interventions as well as group work, training for professionals and creation of resources to challenge the risk presented from the online space.

We have an exciting opportunity to join the WiSE team as a Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) Practitioner - SOLAH. We are looking for someone who is passionate about safeguarding children and young people, working creatively around promoting healthy relationships, online safety whilst creating safe spaces for children and young people to be heard.

You will provide early intervention support to children and young people 5-25 years who have been identified as being at risk of sexual or criminal exploitation.

Working primarily across Rye, Eastbourne, Robertsbridge and Hastings, you will support children and young people to stay safe online and within their communities by providing consultation, guidance and professional support to those working directly with individuals at risk of exploitation. As the role involves travel across East Sussex, you will ideally need access to a car and the ability to drive. Your work will include exploring key topics with young people such as risk, healthy and unhealthy relationships, sex and consent, negotiation and assertiveness, protective behaviours, personal boundaries, harmful sexual behaviours, gender identities, and concepts of masculinity.

Key responsibilities are:

• Manage a caseload of vulnerable young people and supporting them to stay safe and leave the influence of perpetrators
• Work with other professionals to deliver tailored care packages and provide consultation
•  Maintain accurate case records and contributing to timely reports
•  Liaise with Children’s Services, Sussex Police and other agencies to disrupt abuse and support prosecutions
• Deliver training and awareness-raising workshops to professionals and foster carers
• Contribute to strategic development and deputising at relevant meetings

This is a challenging role where children and young people do not always identify the level of risk they are exposed to or the abusive nature of the relationships they are in. The support of victims can be distressing and emotionally demanding for the workers, consequently 1-to-1 clinical supervision, weekly team meetings and regular line management supervision of cases and wellbeing.

If you are enthusiastic about this opportunity but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply. Your skills and experiences may be more transferable than you think, and you could be exactly the person we’re looking for.

Qualifications, experience and knowledge:

• Qualification in Youth Work/Social Work or equivalent, or comparable experience working with vulnerable young people
• Proven experience in safeguarding young children
• Experience providing casework support young people aged 10 to 25 years old
• Group work experience with young people
• Safeguarding children and young people at risk of serious harm
• Delivering and risk assessing outreach work with young people
• Knowledge of risks posed to vulnerable young people through sexual exploitation and harmful sexual behaviour

Role Title: Facilities Officer
Salary: £32,891 to £33,819 Pro-rata
Location: Office Based-Chard, Somerset
Tenure: Permanent, Part Time-15 hours per week (Job-Share, afternoons) 

ActionAid UK is a member of the ActionAid Federation, an international charity that works with women and girls living in poverty. We work with our partners and dedicated staff in 43 countries to end violence and fight poverty so that all women, everywhere, can create the future they want

Are you a keen advocate of women and girls’ rights in emergencies? 

Do you have proven experience in the delivery of a professional Facilities Management service?

Do you have Technical expertise in office maintenance and manual handling?

Then we'd love to hear from you!

At ActionAid UK, we’re driven by a bold mission: a world where women and girls live free from violence and discrimination, and can claim their rights. We’re looking for a Facilities Officer to help create the kind of workplace environment that makes that mission possible every single day. If you love making things run smoothly, take pride in high standards, and want a role where your work directly supports people doing life-changing work, this could be the opportunity for you.

Based in our Chard office (with remote support links to our London team), you’ll be the person who keeps our office environment safe, welcoming, resilient and values-led. You’ll be a key point of contact for staff, visitors, suppliers and contractors, making sure our workplace is a  friendly and well-managed space. One day you might be coordinating engineers to resolve an urgent building issue, and the next you could be ensuring new starters feel confident about health and safety procedures, supporting office events, or helping colleagues with travel and accommodation arrangements.

This is a hands-on, varied role where you’ll support the day-to-day rhythm of the office while also spotting opportunities to improve how we work. You’ll oversee reception and administration essentials, including managing outgoing mail efficiently and cost-effectively, keeping accurate cross-charging records, and maintaining effective systems for stationery, supplies and office consumables. You’ll play a central role in ensuring visitors are supported with the information, logistics and practical help they need to have a safe and productive stay, and you’ll help keep internal communications flowing by sharing relevant updates around the office.

You’ll also take real ownership of the office environment along side your Job-Share co-worker, working to service levels and agreed processes, listening to feedback, and continuously improving the service we provide. You’ll ensure facilities equipment is secure, maintained and compliant, including items requiring legal checks such as PAT testing, and you’ll maintain accurate asset information. You’ll be a main contact with cleaning services to set clear standards and monitor cleanliness, waste disposal, recycling and supplies, and you’ll organise confidential waste and recycling in line with best practice. From managing deliveries and ensuring the right equipment is in place for moving items safely, to attending the premises out of hours if needed for urgent repairs, you’ll help ensure staff can work confidently and safely. Security and safe working are central to this role. You’ll support building access control, assist with fire and building safety procedures, promote safe working practices, and work alongside security colleagues to support safe travel for staff. You’ll also support the Facilities and Security Manager with information gathering for renewals such as travel and office insurance, and coordinate with our London facilities team where travel and accommodation bookings are required.

We’re looking for someone who brings proven experience delivering a professional facilities management service in a similar environment, with a strong customer service mindset and the confidence to build a positive service culture around them. You’ll have practical technical knowledge of office maintenance, repairs and improvements, and you’ll be comfortable managing supplier relationships, raising orders, and handling associated financial processes. You’ll be organised, calm under pressure, and able to juggle immediate daily needs alongside longer-term projects. You’ll also be someone who can identify risks early and take sensible action to reduce them.

Experience as a First Aider and/or Fire Warden, and experience of manual handling are important for this role, and it’s a bonus if you’ve worked with asset management, in the charity sector, or in office environments aligned to health and safety standards such as IOSH.

Today, 12 children and young people will be diagnosed with cancer. We’ll stop at nothing to make sure they get the right care and support at the right time.

Change lives in a life-changing career 

When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world can feel like it’s falling apart. Independence is taken and confidence is stolen. Stability no longer exists. The future suddenly feels uncertain.

The impact of cancer on young lives is more than medical. That’s why we exist. Our specialist social workers help children and young people with cancer and their families navigate the emotional and practical impact of cancer. We remove barriers, solve problems and prioritise wellbeing. And we stop at nothing to make sure they get the right care and support at the right time.

We challenge the systems and policies that surround children and young people, we highlight gaps and campaign for change. Because we know what a better future could look like. And we know what we need to do to make that future a reality. We need to push harder, reach further and work smarter. And we need the right people on our team to help us get there. People like you.

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we recognise that opportunities for too many people remain a condition of their sex, ethnicity, class, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation – or a combination. This has never been acceptable to us as an organisation. We don’t just accept differences, we value it, celebrate it, nurture it and we thrive because of it.

We’re on a journey to be reflective of the diverse children, young people and families we support. We know we aren’t there yet, and we’re passionately committed to taking actions and making changes to be a truly diverse, inclusive and equitable organisation. This includes taking anti-oppressive action and removing barriers in our recruitment practices. We particularly welcome applications from members of minoritised communities. Our Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging strategy will tell you more.

Accessibility

We’re committed to providing reasonable adjustments throughout our recruitment process and we’ll always aim to be as accommodating as possible.
