About Us
At Standing Together, we believe no one should live in fear, yet domestic abuse affects millions of people, often hidden in plain sight.
 
We don't provide frontline services. Instead, we work behind the scenes to change the systems that too often fail survivors; from housing and health to policing, social care and beyond.
 
As a second-tier organisation, we support and strengthen the work of others. We bring agencies together, build skills, offer expert consultancy and drive improvements in policy and practice — so that people facing abuse get better, more joined-up support wherever they live.
 
We're best known for developing the Coordinated Community Response (CCR) a powerful model that gets services working together to prevent harm and keep people safe. It's now recognised across the UK and shapes everything we do.
 
Our work is proudly feminist and anti-racist. We know abuse doesn't exist in a vacuum it's linked to inequality, discrimination and injustice. That's why we're building a team that reflects the communities we serve, with space for diverse voices and lived experience.
 
We're remote-based but closely connected through shared values, mutual respect and a deep belief in the power of system change.
 
We stand with survivors. We stand for justice. We stand together for change.
 
The Opportunity
Be part of a national team improving how services respond to domestic abuse.
 
This role exists to promote and support DAHA Accreditation among housing providers and local authorities, ensuring they embed effective and survivor-centred responses to domestic abuse. Its main goal is to drive system and culture change in the housing sector, improving safety, support, and outcomes for survivors of domestic abuse through the implementation of DAHA's nationally recognised standards.
 
The role directly contributes to Standing Together Against Domestic Abuse's mission by embedding domestic abuse best practice into housing systems at both strategic and operational levels. By building partnerships, delivering training, supporting accreditation, and influencing policy, the role ensures the housing sector plays a proactive part in a coordinated community response—ultimately helping prevent abuse, safeguard survivors, and strengthen institutional accountability.
 
This role addresses the critical gap in how housing providers respond to domestic abuse. It helps standardise and raise the quality of responses, ensures survivors receive safe and appropriate support, and builds capacity across housing systems to prevent harm and hold perpetrators accountable. The added value lies in reducing harm, driving consistency, improving survivor experiences, and supporting organisations to meet their legal and ethical responsibilities through accreditation and training.
