4 weeks ago

Shrewsbury, United Kingdom Connexus Full time

Shropshire Domestic Abuse Service (SDAS) provides accommodation and outreach support to families and individuals across the County of Shropshire.

The Domestic Abuse Male Support Officer role is to facilitate education and recovery domestic abuse groups for men who are experiencing or who have experienced domestic abuse. Groups will run both online and in person.

Further to this you’ll support a small number of men with low needs on a 121-basis providing an effective support service with the aim of enabling the survivor to develop the skills and resources necessary to move on from abuse and maintain independence and self-reliance. We’re looking for those that will participate in raising awareness about domestic abuse at events and via campaigns too.

What we’re looking for:

- Experience of working in a front-line service with individuals in crisis situations
- Be able to demonstrate an understanding of domestic abuse issues across all communities.
- Excellent communication skills and their own vehicle due to the need to travel countywide.

You will have a natural sense of professional curiosity with an understanding of a trauma informed approach when supporting adults who are victims of domestic abuse.

**The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and is open to men only. (Exemption under the Equality Act 2010 Schedule 9, Part 1)**

For informal enquiries, please contact Nicki Wilkinson 07816 546865

Shortlisting Date: 29th August 2023

Interview Date: 31st August 2023
