The role: This is a rewarding role where every day brings the opportunity to make a positive difference to people's lives. We regularly receive testimonials from service users describing the life-changing impact of receiving support from our caseworkers in the National Road Victim Service.

This provides a ready-made peer group who share best practice and knowledge and support each other so, in turn, they can best support road victims. There's no sugar coating it, this isn't an easy role, it requires a special type of person with strong resilience, but the reward is a strong sense of purpose, every day. You can’t pour from an empty cup, so we have strong support systems in place to support our caseworker's wellbeing, including clinical supervision. 

What we offer:

• A generous 35 days of annual leave (including bank holidays and 3-day end of year shutdown) 
• Birthday day off 
• Flexible working (choose a working pattern to suit you between the hours of 8am-6pm Mon-Fri) 
• Enhanced sick pay and compassionate leave 
• Death in service benefit 
• Pension 
• Employee Assistance Programme 
• Clinical supervision and excellent support 
• A rewarding role with purpose 
• Be part of a skilled, friendly team with an engaged Board of Trustees 
• Opportunity to attend prestigious events such as the Brake annual reception and awards (if you want to) 

Who we're looking for 

Full training will be provided under the guidance of our dedicated Training Officer. Our induction program has been developed to equip caseworkers with the skills they need to provide high quality support to road victims and covers topics such as being trauma-informed, safeguarding and risk management.
