This is your chance to play a key part in a passionate team dedicated to ending economic abuse. Surviving Economic Abuse (SEA) is not just a workplace; it’s a community united by a shared mission—to ensure every victim-survivor of economic abuse can thrive free from fear and oppression.

We are seeking a People and Operations Officer who is both a strategic thinker and a practical doer, capable of supporting our internal team and enhancing our operational effectiveness. Your role will be crucial in implementing our ambitious 3-year strategy and ensuring our operations are resilient as we continue to grow in size and impact.

• Your communication skills are top-notch, enabling you to foster strong relationships both within the team and with our external partners.

About Surviving Economic Abuse:

At Surviving Economic Abuse, we deal with one of society’s biggest issues. Last year, 5.5 million UK women reported that a current or former partner had controlled their economic resources – money and the things it can buy such as food, clothing, transportation, and housing. Through economic control, abusers limit women’s freedom, they steal their futures, and, in far too many cases, they take their lives. Yet too few people are aware of economic abuse – even those who experience it. We are the only UK charity dedicated to raising awareness of economic abuse and transforming responses to it. The speed and scale of our growth since 2017 are evidence of how much we are needed. We may be young, but we are already creating big waves.

What We Offer You:

• Remote working with occasional travel for team events
• Competitive salary
• 25 days of annual leave plus (pro rata) plus bank holidays
• 5 'Wellbeing Days' (pro rata)
• Enhanced maternity and paternity pay
• Pension scheme, with 3% employer contribution.
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) offering free, confidential advice or support with any personal or work related concerns.
• Reflective practice
• Opportunities for personal and professional growth in a supportive and innovative environment.

How to Apply:

If you are passionate about making a difference and think you have the right skills and enthusiasm for the job, please apply via our website. Interviews will be held online week commencing Monday 1st July 2024. 

Surviving Economic Abuse is committed to developing an inclusive team which reflects the diversity of the communities we support.
