You will come from a very strong performance background, most likely with a highly detailed understanding of regulatory compliance within any regulated / licenced sector. You will be unafraid to ask difficult questions, scrutinise business and operational planning, put into practice swift and effective performance improvement initiatives, and assure a Board of your services / portfolios efficiency, effectiveness and grip within complex operating environments. Unafraid of robust conversations and relationships, you will not shy away from what needs to be done to ensure the very highest standards for our residents.

Are you passionate about supporting women and girls affected by violence, exploitation and harm? Do you have the ability to build trusted relationships with young people during some of the most challenging moments in their lives?
If so, St Giles Trust is looking for a Female A&E and Custody Mentor to join a newly established community team supporting women and girls aged 11–25 who are at risk of, involved in, or affected by serious youth violence across the West Midlands.

An ambitious, well-established charity that helps people facing adversity to find jobs, homes and the right support they need.

About the service
This new community-based service will provide intensive support to children and young people aged 11–25 who are at risk of, involved in, or affected by serious youth violence.
Working closely with Police, NHS and safeguarding partners, the service will support young people who present at hospital with violence-related injuries, have been arrested or identified as being involved in serious youth violence, or who are vulnerable to exploitation, re-injury or further offending.

As a Female A&E and Custody Mentor, you will provide intensive one-to-one mentoring and support to women and girls aged 11–25 who are experiencing significant vulnerabilities linked to violence, exploitation and offending.
You will respond quickly to referrals, often following a hospital admission, arrest or safeguarding concern, using these critical moments as opportunities to begin meaningful engagement and support. You will build trusted relationships with women, young girls and their families, helping them to increase their safety, develop resilience and make positive changes that reduce the risk of future harm.
You will also undertake in-reach work within hospital settings, including A&E departments, as well as community outreach across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands.

Purpose of the Job
Physical health and mental health are inextricably linked. The purpose of this role is to support people who have significant mental health issues and those from diverse ethnic backgrounds who may face barriers in accessing physical health checks. The role will provide longer term support in some cases, so people can address some of the barriers which might be in the way for them to consider their physical health positively. The roles will provide a service across Hammersmith and Fulham and Hounslow.
The role will be delivered within Primary Care and therefore you will be expected to build relationships within those settings and with community VCSE organisations to ensure that the service supports people within their own communities.
