Company Description
At Catch22, we are proud of our reputation as a modern and progressive employer. Our 1,300 colleagues and 300 volunteers work at every stage of the social welfare cycle, supporting over 60,000 individuals from cradle to career.
Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. We call these our '3Ps'. We achieve this in two ways. Firstly, we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services. Secondly, we use our knowledge to change 'the system', to fix the complex web that can trap and disempower those it was set up to help. With the heart of a charity and the mindset of a business, we are uniquely placed to deliver on this challenging agenda.

  • Consistently identifying, monitoring, reviewing, and managing support plans and risks, assessing service user progress and responses, and ensuring that safeguarding risks are escalated appropriately.
  • Providing support and information to cope and recover, guiding victims through administrative information and advice packages, and empowering victims to navigate the process effectively.
  • Ensuring that service users are fully informed through a robust introduction to the service, including referral pathways, support services, and the Beacon service offering, alongside providing an understanding of the environment that they will be entering, timescales, and key support organisations.
  • Ensuring that victims are fully informed of key dates, case progress, and sentencing outcomes, and identifying and creating critical points and alerts along the victim journey - working as a conduit to coordinated and sequential information sharing between victims, services, and agencies.
  • Facilitating a co-ordinated multi-agency response to address identified needs and risks, through close and effective working relationships with the Police, and key support agencies, and representing Beacon at community partnership meetings.
