CVAA UK is a membership organisation supporting not-for-profit organisations across the UK who specialise in adoption services. Over 3000 children in the UK need adoption each year because they cannot remain at home or with family members. The CVAA Practice Programme delivers 30 or more online courses each year to those working in the sector, primarily social workers. The programme has developed a strong reputation for attracting a range of subject experts to deliver cost effective, engaging and useful training. Due to a restructure of the team, we are now looking for a Training Manager who can oversee the delivery of the programme from mid to late July 2024. Initially fixed term, it is anticipated that this post will become permanent.

The Training Manager will work with the Head of Practice Development and the Programme Administrator to ensure that the courses are full, delivered effectively and evaluated. Part of the role will also be to source new trainers and support the creation of the programme into 2025.

The CVAA team work remotely across the UK so location of the postholder is not a barrier to recruitment as long as long as they can travel occasionally and come into London for team days. The team is small, diverse and dynamic. Experience of project management or delivery of training or events is more important than knowledge of adoption or children's social care. We would warmly welcome an application from people who have lived experience of adoption or fostering, and candidates from the Global Majority. 

Benefits include:

• Flexible working
• Pension
• Personal training budget
• Generous holiday allowance

Candidates must be eligible to work in the UK and will need to undertake a DBS due to the sensitive nature of the work of CVAA. We require three references, one of whom can be personal. To apply please prepare a comprehensive CV and Personal Statement. The statement should be no more than three pages of typed A4, in English, and address all the requirements of the Person Specification providing evidence and examples to back up statements.

Petra Jodlova, Head of Practice Development, is available to arrange informal conversations about the post. 

The closing date for applications is 11.59pm 16th May 2024. Interviews will be week commencing 27th May 2024.

This is a dedicated post working with children, families and Young People who have been exposed to gender-based violence and exploitation.  To support them to be safe and have access to appropriate interventions to enable them to live free from fear and harm.

Our key values are diversity and inclusion, collaboration, advocacy and innovation.

This is an exciting post which needs a dynamic individual to join our charity to work on the premise that Children and Young People are survivors in their own right and need the right support to move forward into a life free from fear and harm.

We are continually developing this service and you will be an integral part of this, finding new ways to engage and support the children, young people and families in our service and going out into the community to educate and empower families about Domestic Abuse and the support available.
