About the role
WGN leads the London Survivors Gateway for Sexual Violence Services. The service addresses the challenges survivors can face in finding and accessing specialist support, acting as a common point of access linking survivors to additional appropriate services. Navigators provide a first contact, telephone-based response, supporting survivors to make informed decisions and to access other specialist services. Due to the success of the service in the last five years, we are now seeking additional team members to join our expanding team
About you
We are looking for highly motivated, passionate individuals who are committed about supporting survivors of sexual violence and working intersectionally to tackle barriers that they face to accessing services. The successful candidates will have exceptional communication skills, strong IT skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment while working with service users. If you have these skills, we would love to hear from you!
In the job description you will find a list of skills and experience we would ideally want you to have; however, we know that experience and skills are gained in many different ways, including unpaid and informal roles, we would like to hear why you are right for this role, not whether you have previously had formal opportunities, so please apply if this position sounds right for you and we will consider your application.
About us
