Full Job Description

Maternity Leave cover

The post is for an Intervention Officer which is essentially an Independent Domestic Violence Advocate (IDVA) post working with residents in the Local Authority aged 16+ experiencing DV. This is NOT an adults social care or children's social care post but will work across both services.

Ideal candidate will be a qualified Independent Domestic Violence Advocate or will have worked for at least 2 years in the last 5 years in a domestic abuse advocacy role.

You will be expected to be able to build rapport and establish a respectful, honest and supportive relationship with victims / survivors of domestic abuse and work within the community to promote the safety and well-being of those we work with. You will be part of a team that provides duty advice and information to those who self-refer and to various professionals. Within this role you may complete home or community visits with or without other professionals (only where safe to do so)
