IDVA, BEDE STARFISH DOMESTIC ABUSE PROJECT
Full time, permanent contract £27,854 to £30,540 (depending on qualifications and experience), plus contributory pension.
Bede is an established local charity sitting at the heart of the Bermondsey community. Our Bede Starfish Project supports clients who have complex needs to end domestic abuse. Our small, dynamic team works with over 150 individuals each year using a flexible, creative casework approach. A key element in our success lies in accompanying clients to court and social services meetings. Another of our unique services is peer support to break the cycle of long-term abuse through our Freedom Programme and Survivors’ Groups.
This is a unique opportunity for a qualified and adaptable IDVA who wants to do more long-term front facing client work with individuals at high risk and with complex needs. You will have the opportunity to use your holistic skills to help those most vulnerable, including clients who have no recourse to public funds or are facing child care proceedings. Working from our office in Bermondsey, you will work closely with the local Community Safety Unit and will be based once a week at Brixton police station.
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact the project manager, Ahlam Laabori - details on website or cover letter below.

The Big House has a simple mission: to enable care leavers to fulfil their potential. Through drama and tailored long term wrap-around support we help care leavers overcome traumas experienced in childhood so they can make the complex transition from looked-after child to independent adult.
Through our work we have seen the transformational effect that drama can have on at-risk young people’s lives. The strict discipline required to produce professional theatre imparts vital transferable skills including time keeping, focus, team working, effective communication, ability to regulate emotions and make better informed decisions; empowering and equipping the young people with the skills needed to become self-reliant.
We are seeking a Fundraising Executive to ensure the delivery of a new and ambitious fundraising strategy, working to diversify our income streams and develop the Trusts and Foundations pipeline. The successful candidate will work closely with the Fundraising and Development Manager to achieve key performance indicators in line with the organisation's Business Plan.
