Every childhood is worth fighting for. This is our belief. It drives us. And it motivates our Development and Implementation team to maintain our position as an influential, informed and forceful voice at every level. Join us as an Implementation Support Officer , and lead progress that means more.
The innovative services we develop are a critical part of the NSPCC's fight for every childhood. We transform lives by working directly with some of the most vulnerable children and families. We also share knowledge and evidence from our services and support others to replicate them. Through a rigorous cycle of developing, delivering and testing, we learn what works. We share this knowledge with policy-makers and professionals and we seek to scale up services through where they are proven to work.
By doing this, many more children in the UK and Channel Islands can be helped and kept safe.
Our Development and Implementation teams work across the life cycle of our services, from the earliest stages of an idea, right through to working with external partners to replicate and implement services once we know they deliver positive impacts for children and families. We have 2 vacancies for Implementation Support Officers, to support other agencies to successfully replicate and implement services through our programme of scale up. While the core content of both roles is similar, one role will focus on our Child Sexual Abuse work, the other on our work to prevent Abuse and Neglect in the early years, and the Prevention of Domestic Abuse.
In the supporting statement for your application, please state whether you would like to be considered for the role supporting on our Child Sexual Abuse work OR our Prevention of Abuse & Neglect in the early years and Prevention of Domestic Abuse work.
