People team administrator jobs in west wickham, greater london
Summary
The Church of England is continually striving to improve its safeguarding practices. The 2020 report by IICSA on the Church highlighted failures in respect of child sexual abuse and, more broadly, the challenges facing the Church to get safeguarding right.
The Church's aspiration is that safeguarding is not experienced and approached as a matter of administrative compliance. Rather, it should be what the Church is - something that flows from its core beliefs and values, part of its DNA.
The Church has made important and positive strides over recent years. There is, however, still much to be done to keep children and vulnerable adults safe, and to promote their well-being.
The Church is a complex collection of different bodies. Most of the safeguarding work is carried out locally within the 42 dioceses and cathedrals in England. This work is supported centrally by a National Safeguarding Team (NST).
The NST are developing high quality, robust safeguarding learning and development pathways, based on legislative requirements and evidence of good practice. This role will be pivotal to delivering this.
This post will have responsibility for the creation and revision of national safeguarding learning, for planning its implementation and for leading work for the NST on evaluating the effectiveness of the learning pathways offered. Working alongside the Safeguarding Learning and Development Manager (Development Lead) the postholder is responsible for ensuring that the learning pathways are based on best safeguarding practice, adult learning best practice, latest relevant academic research, national legislation and safeguarding policies and guidance.
