- Compassionate and empathetic approach to working with vulnerable individuals.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and rapport with diverse stakeholders.
- Ethical and principled, with a commitment to upholding the highest standards of safeguarding.
- Ability to work collaboratively as part of a team, while also demonstrating initiative and autonomy.
- Resilient and adaptable, able to navigate challenging situations with professionalism and composure.
- Commitment to ongoing learning and development in the field of safeguarding.

**Why Join Us?**

Meaningful Work: Every day, you'll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of those we serve.

Supportive Environment: We value collaboration, empathy, and respect. You'll be part of a supportive team where your ideas are heard and your contributions are valued.

Continuous Learning: We are committed to your professional development. You'll have access to training, resources, and opportunities to grow in your role.

Positive Impact: By joining us, you'll be contributing to a safer, healthier community where everyone can thrive.

**Who are we?**

We are the Roman Catholic Diocese of Westminster, a faith-based charity with offices close to Victoria Train and Underground Station and just a short walk from St James Park and Westminster Underground stations.

At the Diocese of Westminster, we believe in the power of community and the importance of safeguarding every member. We're not only a charity, we are home to the Archbishop of Westminster (Cardinal Vincent Nichols) & our beautiful Westminster Cathedral. We are one of the leading Catholic dioceses in the country, delivering our charitable mission through our network of 208 schools, in which over 90,000 pupils attend daily, 212 parishes and several hundred social justice initiatives. We seek to positively impact the lives of all members of society.

Our core values are Competence, Reliability, Honesty, Perseverance & Love.

We want people from all walks of life to feel valued for their individuality, thrive in our organisation, share a sense of belonging and demonstrate our values. With this in mind, we positively celebrate Diversity & Inclusion at the Diocese of Westminster and place it at the heart of our aim which is to reflect and connect with the diverse communities that we serve.
