Sexual Assault and Harassment Adviser

1 month ago


London, Greater London, United Kingdom Queen Mary University of London Full time

About the Role
The post of Sexual Assault and Harassment Adviser (SAHA) sits within our Advice and Counselling Service, although it will involve close co-operation with other teams within Student Wellbeing, particularly the Policy and Campaigns Manager (Tackling Sexual Violence, Harassment and Hate Crime) post in our Student Life team. We currently have one other SAHA working in the service.

The role recognises the need for Queen Mary to offer students one-to-one support should they report that they have experienced sexual assault or harassment. In addition to offering students support, the post will also require signposting to external services, e.g. the Havens, as well as any appropriate services within the university. You will also provide students with impartial advice and guidance about the options available to raise a case formally either through internal University complaints and disciplinary processes and procedures, or externally with the Police.

About You
The successful candidate will be a graduate with an accredited Independent Sexual Violence Adviser (ISVA) qualification. The post holder will have demonstrable experience in supporting those who have experienced sexual assault and understand the impact and dynamics of sexual assault, being mindful of the composition of Queen Mary's student body.

About the School/Department/Institute/Project
The Advice and Counselling Service is a multidisciplinary student support service offering counselling, mental health support, psychiatry clinics, welfare advice, financial advice and immigration advice. Alongside the Disability and Dyslexia Service and the Student Life team, it makes up one third of the student wellbeing division within the Student and Academic Services directorate.

About Queen Mary
At Queen Mary University of London, we believe that a diversity of ideas helps us achieve the previously unthinkable.

Throughout our history, we've fostered social justice and improved lives through academic excellence. And we continue to live and breathe this spirit today, not because it's simply 'the right thing to do' but for what it helps us achieve and the intellectual brilliance it delivers.

We continue to embrace diversity of thought and opinion in everything we do, in the belief that when views collide, disciplines interact, and perspectives intersect, truly original thought takes form.

Benefits
We offer competitive salaries, access to a generous pension scheme, 30 days' leave per annum (pro-rata for part-time/fixed-term), a season ticket loan scheme and access to a comprehensive range of personal and professional development opportunities. In addition, we offer a range of work life balance and family friendly, inclusive employment policies, campus facilities and flexible working arrangements.

Queen Mary's commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes. Reasonable adjustments will be made at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability. We are open to considering applications from candidates wishing to work flexibly.

Valuing Diversity & Committed to Equality

£42,405 to £49,785 per annum.
