About Us:
Standing Together is a UK-based charity dedicated to ending domestic abuse and creating safer communities. We work collaboratively with various stakeholders, including local authorities, police, and health services, to improve responses to domestic abuse and support survivors. We pioneered the Coordinated Community Response (CCR) approach in the UK, a multi-agency partnership model that ensures the safety of survivors while holding abusers accountable.

Through innovative training, advocacy, and community engagement, we empower individuals and organisations to challenge and change the systems that allow domestic abuse to persist. Our mission is to ensure everyone can live free from violence and abuse, fostering a culture of respect and equality. By leveraging research and best practices, we strive to influence policy and practice, making a meaningful impact in the lives of those affected by domestic abuse.

Purpose of the Role
As a Senior Regional Lead, you will play a vital role in supporting Local Authorities and housing providers in achieving DAHA accreditation. You will lead a team of Regional Leads, providing supervision and support to ensure their success, while also developing partnerships and promoting innovative housing responses to domestic abuse. This role is key to the delivery of DAHA’s strategic goals and will give you the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of domestic abuse survivors across the housing sector.

Key Responsibilities

- Provide supervision and guidance to up to four Regional Leads, helping them achieve their goals and maintain high levels of engagement.
- Work with housing providers and local authorities to promote and support their journey towards achieving DAHA accreditation.
- Plan and deliver workshops, webinars, and training sessions on DAHA standards and domestic abuse housing responses.
- Build strong, collaborative relationships with external partners, including Local Authorities and Registered Social Housing Providers.
- Ensure that the work of the DAHA team is regularly monitored, evaluated, and improved upon, incorporating feedback and identifying areas for development.
- Act as a spokesperson for DAHA at conferences, forums, and public speaking engagements, promoting the value of accreditation across the sector.
- Oversee project delivery, ensuring that timelines and milestones are met, risks are managed, and resources are used efficiently.

Knowledge, Skills, and Experience

- Proven ability to lead and support a team, providing guidance, feedback, and managing performance.
- In-depth understanding of the dynamics of domestic abuse and its impact on survivors, with a specific focus on housing challenges.
- Strong experience in building and maintaining effective partnerships with external organisations, working collaboratively towards shared goals.
- Demonstrable experience in planning, managing, and delivering projects, with the ability to meet targets and evaluate outcomes.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to facilitate meetings, workshops, and represent DAHA at public events.
- A deep understanding of equal opportunities, intersectionality, and anti-discriminatory practice, particularly in relation to domestic abuse and housing services.
- A good understanding of safeguarding responsibilities, especially in the context of domestic abuse.
- Previous experience in line management or a training qualification is beneficial but not essential.

Benefits:

- 25 days of annual leave (pro rata), plus English bank holidays.
- 1 additional day’s leave for religious/cultural observation.
- Salary sacrifice scheme.
- Private healthcare scheme (post-probation).
- Flexible working opportunities.
