About Us
We are SafeLives, the UK-wide charity dedicated to ending domestic abuse, for everyone and for good. We work with organisations across the UK to transform the response to domestic abuse. We listen to survivors, putting their voices at the heart of our thinking. We want what you would want for your best friend. We look at the whole picture for each individual and family to get the right help at the right time to make families everywhere safe and well. We also challenge perpetrators to change, asking ‘why he or she doesn’t stop?’ rather than ‘why he or she doesn’t leave?’ This applies whatever the gender of the victim or perpetrator and whatever the nature of their relationship.
Last year alone, nearly 13,500 professionals received our training. Over 70,000 adults at risk of serious harm or murder and more than 85,000 children received support through dedicated multi-agency support designed by us and delivered with partners. In the last four years, over 2,000 perpetrators have been challenged and supported to change by interventions we created with partners, and that’s just the start.
Together we can end domestic abuse. Forever. For everyone.
The Role
Our training programme significantly improves the ability of domestic abuse professionals and other frontline responders and organisations, including police, children’s social care staff, and corporate HR and community teams, to identify and respond to domestic abuse and closely linked issues. We take a holistic approach, looking at the whole family and the connections between them to keep families safe sooner, and offer a whole range of training products to develop people who support them, including accredited professional training (e.g Idva, Ypva), accreditation of specialist DA services (Leading Lights), and bespoke services for public, voluntary and commercial organisations.
We are looking for a Lead Trainer to oversea our flagship Idva programme covering England and Wales. Since 2006 we have trained over 3,000 Idvas and with increasing demand our Idva course remains one of our core training offers.
As one of SafeLives’ trainers and assessors you will be part of the SafeLives learning and accreditation programme, with shared responsibility for developing, delivering and continuing a range of courses from within our suite. More broadly, you will work to ensure that SafeLives’ training programmes are in line with our strategic priorities and are of the highest quality, including course development and delivery with external partners and associate trainers.
You will combine teamwork with working independently on a day-to-day basis at home, in SafeLives’ Bristol or London office and at training locations.
This role offers a unique opportunity to influence the performance of professionals within the domestic abuse and related sectors at a national level as well as the response of other frontline or first responders in the public, voluntary or commercial sectors, and thus help address the risks faced by victims of domestic abuse.
Benefits include a generous package including 25 days’ holiday per year plus public holidays, employee pension scheme with 4% employer contribution, Cycle2Work scheme, 365 days a year Employee Assistance Programme.
If this challenge sounds as exciting to you as it does to us and you believe you have the qualities we have described, please take a look over the job description and submit a 500-word cover letter, CV and equal opportunity form.
Closing date: 10am on Friday 7th May 2021.

We exist to strengthen the Church to meet the needs of the vulnerable. The Operations Coordinator will lead our administration and operations to ensure a functioning and flourishing organisation, healthily serving the Church to bring hope and wholeness to those in need.
Role Summary
You will ensure the excellent operation and administration of the trust as we pursue our mission of “Strengthening the Church to meet the needs of the vulnerable”. Taking a particular focus on contract and compliance management, office management, project management and communications to enable further ministry to happen. You will work well with others to set a healthy team culture that balances the needs of staff and productive output, including line management. This is a leadership position within the trust, working closely with the Charity Leader to influence the practical and administrative aspects of our work.
Why do we need an Operations Coordinator?
Müllers exists today to “Strengthen the Church to meet the needs of the vulnerable.” In all we do,
we work to help Christians use their skills and influence for the benefit of the most disadvantaged people of our world. We do this through training, resourcing, praying, teaching, networking, mentoring and inspiring. None of this is possible without clear, helpful, effective, robust, honouring and proactive administration happening behind the scenes. In fulfilling the role of Operations Coordinator, you will play a key role in leading our administration and operations to ensure a functioning and flourishing organisation, healthily serving the Church to bring hope and wholeness to those in need.
Our work
Last year, Müllers resourced 228 global partners through prayer and donating £1.3 million as they met the practical, financial, spiritual and health needs of the most vulnerable of our world. We taught a free, year long theology course to 22 students to inspire their faith and strengthen their minsitry. We equipped 49 youthworkers to engage with young people in Bristol. We saw record numbers visit our museum, we hosted workshops on caring for the elderly and mentored church leaders, all so we can continue to pursue George Müller's vision, "that it may be seen that God is faithful still and hears prayers still." Would you consider joining us to make future years even better?
