Role

Rape Crisis Scotland (RCS) is Scotland’s leading organisation working to support survivors of sexual violence, transform attitudes, improve the justice response to sexual crime and, ultimately, to end sexual violence in all its forms.

The National Advocacy Service (NAS) Advocacy Worker will be part of the RCS NAS team. The NAS provides support and advocacy to survivors who are engaged, or considering engaging, with the criminal justice system following an experience of sexual violence. This RCS NAS team supports the work of delivery centres in the NAS network by providing additional capacity in the form of flexible, front-line advocacy support to survivors of sexual violence where their local advocacy team is unable to provide cover.

• A warm, welcoming and feminist organisational culture
• Access to internal and external training and development opportunities
• A generous employment package, including 43 days of leave (pro-rata)
