About Camden

Camden is changing on the inside to make life better for everyone. Our residents and communities are at the heart of everything we do. We’re home to the most important conversations happening today and we’re making radical social change a reality, so that nobody gets left behind. Here’s where you can help decide a better future for us all.

About the team/service

We know that domestic abuse will affect one in four women during their lifetime and that this figure is likely to be much higher. Currently three women a week are killed by a former or current partner. Domestic abuse and violence against women and girls (VAWG) are some of the most pressing social issues of our time. In Camden we believe that everyone has the right to be safe and abusive behaviour should always be addressed. We are committed to supporting survivors and tackling perpetrator behaviour across all our services … but we need help to do it.

What You’ll Be Doing / How You’ll Be Involved

We are seeking four experienced practitioners to join Camden’s new Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Intervention Team. The postholders will play a central role in the mobilisation and implementation of an in-house Perpetrator programme. The main objective for the posts is to reduce risk of harm to adult and child victim/survivors by intervening to stop perpetrators from offending and providing support to those motivated to change. Each intervention worker will carry a caseload, directly engaging adult domestic abuse perpetrators in 1:1 Early Response and Behaviour Change Interventions. Working in partnership with Camden’s in-house services for victim/survivors, the postholders will play an integral part in managing/reducing risk through multi-agency, survivor led assessment and intervention.

This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act and will require an Enhanced DBS. Please note Camden also offers the DBS update service.
