About Us

">

Advance is an award-winning and innovative women-only organisation, providing emotional and practical support to women and girls survivors of domestic abuse. We believe in empowering women and girls to lead safe, non-violent, equal lives so that they can flourish and contribute to the community.

We are committed to providing equality of opportunity and actively seek to recruit people from groups underrepresented in our current team. Our values are to listen and support, to empower and respect, collaboration, innovation, and accountability.

The Minerva London service provides holistic, trauma-informed support for women in touch with the Criminal Justice System. We do this through offering dedicated one to one support, safer women's centre spaces and specialist interventions and partnerships.

Key Responsibilities

  1. Providing one-to-one support to women with complex needs.
  2. Building relationships with other agencies and stakeholders to ensure effective referrals and collaboration.
  3. Working collaboratively with colleagues to develop and deliver a comprehensive support package for women.

Requirements

  • A strong believer in advocating for others and empathetic towards women who have experienced trauma.
  • Patient and determined individual who can work effectively with women in difficult circumstances.
  • Good communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to build rapport with women and colleagues alike.

  • A 35-hour working week.
  • An exceptional 30 days of paid holiday per year (pro rata for part time), PLUS public holidays on top.
  • Perkbox - an employee discount platform where you can receive free rewards as well as take advantage of savings on clothes, groceries, travel, leisure and more.
  • Pension scheme.
  • Enhanced maternity/adoption provision.
  • Access to our Employee Assistance Programme.
