You’ll have the opportunity to shape services, strengthen partnerships and help define what excellent domestic abuse support looks like.

The opportunity

As our Designated Safeguarding Lead, you’ll play a key role in developing a strong safeguarding culture across the organisation, ensuring concerns are managed effectively and learning leads to meaningful improvement.

You’ll also use data, outcomes and feedback to understand what is working, identify emerging needs and drive service development.

You will:

• Lead, support and develop a dedicated domestic abuse team.
• Oversee safe and effective delivery across refuge, community and outreach services.
• Champion trauma-informed, strengths-based and person-centred practice.
• Lead safeguarding for adults and children and contribute to multi-agency processes.

About you

You’ll have experience of managing people and services, together with a strong understanding of domestic abuse and its impact on adults and children. Experience within domestic abuse, safeguarding, housing, social care, family support or a similar specialist service would be highly relevant.

You’ll combine strong leadership with genuine compassion. You’ll be confident managing risk and complex situations, able to challenge poor practice when necessary, and committed to developing others.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• An inspiring and supportive people manager.
• Experienced in trauma-informed, person-centred
