Domestic Abuse Safe at Home Practitioner 

Location: Bury

Salary: £27,500

Contract Type: Permanent

Please note, this is an on-site role only. Due to the nature of our Refuges and Outreach services, it is essential that our teams are present and accessible, enabling us to provide safe, responsive and high-quality support to those who need us most.

About Safenet

We provide domestic abuse services across the Northwest of England, including refuges  for women and children, safe houses for men, community support, and extra support for those facing addiction, mental health, or other issues.

We understand the serious impact domestic abuse can have, especially on health and  wellbeing, and provide support and guidance to help survivors live safely and securely.

Safenet is part of the Calico Group. Here’s what makes The Calico Group unique: each of  our specialist companies collaborates and innovates together to have a greater impact than they could alone.

“A future where everyone can live safe, happy and healthy lives free from abuse,  violence and exploitation in their homes, streets and communities

About the role

As a Domestic Abuse Safe at Home Practitioner, you will help women experiencing domestic abuse to feel safer in their own homes.

  • Knowledge of safeguarding practice for adults, children and young people, and confidence following organisational/local safeguarding procedures.
  • Ability to complete risk assessments and co-produce safety and support plans, reviewing them as risk changes and working to agreed timescales.
  • Strong communication skills, including the ability to build trust, explain options clearly, maintain professional boundaries, and work in a non-judgemental way.
  • Ability to work independently and manage a caseload, prioritising effectively, meeting deadlines, and maintaining accurate, timely case notes and monitoring/outcome data.
  • Confidence working with partner agencies (e.g., housing, police, health, MARAC/IDVA pathways and civil remedies) and making appropriate referrals and signposting.
  • Willingness to undertake home visits and lone working, using dynamic risk assessment and following health & safety procedures (including safe professional curiosity in the community).
