Role

Committed to Ending Abuse (CEA) provides specialist support to individuals and families affected by domestic abuse through our integrated three-stage Trauma Recovery Model, supporting people on their journey towards safety, recovery and greater independence.

As part of our ongoing service development, we are seeking to recruit an experienced and compassionate Crisis Support Worker to join our dedicated Crisis Intervention Team.

The Crisis Support Worker will provide responsive, time-limited crisis intervention and support to individuals who are experiencing, or have experienced, domestic abuse across the Falkirk area.

Working within a trauma-informed, person-centered and strengths-based approach, the successful candidate will undertake structured risk assessment and safety planning, provide emotional and practical support, advocacy and case management, and work closely with statutory and third-sector partner agencies to reduce risk and support positive outcomes.

The role requires an understanding of the dynamics and impact of domestic abuse, including coercive and controlling behaviour, the barriers survivors may face when seeking support, and the importance of recognising and building upon survivors' existing strengths and protective strategies.

CEA supports women, children, young people and, where appropriate, men affected by domestic abuse. We welcome applications from candidates who have experience of supporting people from diverse backgrounds and circumstances.

We are looking for someone who can work confidently and sensitively with individuals experiencing crisis and complex circumstances, while promoting safety, informed choice, dignity, independence and recovery.

Applicants should have relevant experience within domestic abuse, gender-based violence, social care, community support or a related field. Experience of structured domestic abuse risk assessment, safety planning, multi-agency working and trauma-informed practice would be advantageous.

The successful candidate will be required to undertake appropriate Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme checks.

This role may involve outreach and community-based work across the Falkirk area. Applicants must therefore be able to travel as required to fulfil the duties of the post.
