A unique and rewarding opportunity to join Cranstoun’s Positive Relationships Gloucestershire service as an Integrated Partner Support Worker.

This role provides independent, confidential support and advocacy to partners, ex-partners and family members of individuals engaged in behaviour change programmes across Gloucestershire, including the C-DAIR conditional caution pathway. You will ensure that victim-survivor safety, voice and safeguarding remain central throughout, while maintaining clear independence from the work undertaken with the person using abusive behaviour.

We are looking for a motivated, compassionate and confident practitioner with experience of supporting victim-survivors of domestic abuse. You will proactively make safe and appropriate contact, assess risk and need, complete and review DASH risk assessments, develop personalised safety and support plans, and provide flexible one-to-one support face to face, online and by telephone.

The successful applicant will work closely with Violence Prevention Practitioners, local domestic abuse services and wider statutory, voluntary and community agencies to coordinate support, manage risk and safeguard victim-survivors, children and other family members. You will advocate for victim-survivors, support access to relevant specialist services, contribute to multi-agency forums and share information appropriately and proportionately.

You will bring a strong understanding of coercive control, perpetrator dynamics, safeguarding and risk management, together with excellent communication, advocacy and partnership-working skills. You must be able to work independently while contributing effectively to a busy multi-agency team, maintain clear professional boundaries and accurate case records, and make defensible decisions in complex situations. An IDVA qualification or equivalent, or a willingness to undertake IDVA training, is desirable.

Post holder will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check against relevant barred lists.

Applicants must be able to provide satisfactory evidence of their right to work in the UK at the application stage.
