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 is our specialist project supporting children and young people across Sussex and Surrey who are affected by, or at risk of, exploitation. Through education, awareness-raising and empowerment, we help young people understand healthy relationships, recognise harmful behaviours, and build safety and resilience.
We now have an exciting opportunity to join our WiSE team as a Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) Practitioner. In this vital role, you will work alongside the Service manager, an Early Intervention worker, and two experienced Practitioners. You will be co-located with the Exploitation team at Guildford Police Station, working collaboratively with partner agencies to support young people and contribute to multi-agency safeguarding responses.
The role involves a significant amount of lone working and frequent travel across Surrey to meet clients and attend meetings, with occasional travel further afield. Therefore, a full UK driving licence and access to a car are essential.
What you will be doing
In this role, you will hold a caseload of young people aged 10–25 who are vulnerable to sexual or criminal exploitation, providing intensive, person-centred support. You will work closely with professionals across multiple agencies to promote safety, disrupt exploitation, and empower young people to move towards safer, more stable futures. Key Responsibilities:
- Manage a caseload of vulnerable young people, helping them stay safe and move away from the influence of perpetrators.
- Work collaboratively with partner professionals to design and deliver tailored support packages, offering specialist consultation where needed.

- Deliver training and awareness workshops to professionals, foster carers, and partner agencies to strengthen community understanding and responses to exploitation.
- Contribute to strategic development, deputising at relevant meetings and helping shape best practice across the service.
This is a challenging role; many of the young people you support may not recognise the risks they are facing or the abusive dynamics within their relationships. Supporting victims can at times be emotionally demanding and distressing. To ensure you feel supported and able to deliver high-quality practice, you will receive:
- One-to-one clinical supervision
- Weekly team meetings
- Regular line management supervision focused on both casework and wellbeing
We recognise the emotional weight of this work and prioritise a reflective, supportive environment for all team members.

Qualifications, experience and knowledge

- A relevant qualification in Youth Work, Social Work or an equivalent field — or significant comparable experience working directly with vulnerable young people.
- Proven safeguarding experience involving children and young people, with the ability to identify, respond to, and escalate concerns appropriately.
- Direct casework experience supporting young people aged 10–25, delivering structured, person-centred interventions.
- Experience facilitating group work that engages, educates and empowers young people.
- Experience delivering and risk-assessing outreach work, ensuring safe, effective practice in community settings.
- A strong understanding of the risks faced by vulnerable young people, including sexual exploitation, criminal exploitation, and harmful sexual behaviour.

About Hammersmith and Fulham Foodbank:
We are the Hammersmith and Fulham Foodbank, an independent charity, and a proud member of the Trussell Trust Foodbank Network, providing a range of essential services for people who need help in our community. Our mission is the prevention and relief from poverty. But we don’t ‘just’ provide food. We know that by the time someone comes to the Foodbank, there may be wider issues needing support, which is why we also offer professional advice through our partners, such as Citizens Advice H&F and connect people with a breadth of local support. We achieve a life-changing impact through our foodbank sessions and our Hub on the White City Estate. We believe in helping the whole person, responding to the changing needs we see, and we push for early intervention in our borough to avoid people reaching crisis.
