As a Peri you will have the opportunity to work in a variety of roles, allowing for continuous development of knowledge, casework skills, advocacy, multi-agency working and skills in managing change.

This role involves commuting to sites all across London and although hybrid working may be available on some projects it won't be for all.

Travel is taken into consideration when confirming placements however you should be prepared for longer commutes.

About You

The Peri team is looking for applicants with transferrable skills who bring their own range of experience and expertise, understand intersectionality and how this impacts on our service user group, and are willing to learn and develop their skills to work in a trauma informed way.
