We are seeking workers who can work really effectively as part of a dynamic team, who are able to think creatively about how they can build engagement and trust with women who may never have engaged with services previously and be able to work with the survivor at a pace she is comfortable with.

You will need to be an excellent advocate who can work effectively with a wide range of other professionals in different agencies.
