A key focus of the role is driving greater technological excellence in both teaching and operations, particularly digital testimony preservation and the use of educational technology.

The post’s success is the continuous improvement of both programme reach and impact, engaging new and diverse audiences and demonstrating meaningful long-term impact in line with the Trust’s mission and vision.

Drive Practice Adviser Team Lead

£48,734- £49,771 (plus LA as appropriate)

Home-based, with travel to offices/sites as required

Full time

The Drive Partnership, formed by Respect, SafeLives and Social Finance, is working to transform the national response to perpetrators of domestic abuse. We work to end domestic abuse and protect victims by disrupting, challenging, and changing the behaviour of those who are causing harm. Together we have developed the Drive Project to address a gap in work with high-harm, high-risk perpetrators of domestic abuse. We also work to advocate for systems and policy change- to develop sustainable, national systems that respond more effectively to all perpetrators of domestic abuse.

In July 2025 the Home Office announced a £53m investment over the next four years to enable the Drive Project to roll out across England and Wales. To end domestic abuse, we must address the source of the problem - the perpetrator.  This funding will make a huge difference to our efforts to support survivors, by holding perpetrators to account, stopping them from causing further harm and giving them the chance to change.

Purpose of the role:

The role of the Drive Practice Adviser Team Lead is to support the practice team in fulfilling their role whilst also acting as a specialist advisor providing expert knowledge in Domestic Abuse to the Drive teams, in addition to supporting the Drive central team in their work.  We have a bank of extensive learnings from 10 years of delivery. The Drive Practice Team Leader will play an important role in applying this best practice to new and existing delivery areas through training.

This role will also involve establishing close working relationships with local PCC leads, police, multiagency partners and delivery providers to ensure structures and processes required for effective Drive Project delivery are established during site preparation; quality of service development; consistency in the development of the Drive Project; fidelity to the evolving model across delivery sites.

The successful candidate is likely to bring extensive experience of working with high harm perpetrators and/or victims of domestic abuse. You are also likely to bring knowledge and experience of effective ways of working/engaging with high harm perpetrators of domestic abuse, or clients with complex needs and challenging behaviours.

A sound understanding of the IDVA and MARAC process and best practice when working with high-risk victims of domestic abuse is highly desirable.
