About Us
Changing Lives is a nationwide charity helping people facing the most challenging of circumstances to make positive change - for good. We believe that everyone deserves a safe home, a rewarding job and a life free from addiction or abuse. We know that given the right support, anyone can change their life for the better.
Our services across the country help thousands of people each year who are experiencing a wide range of complicated challenges, including homelessness, drug and alcohol addiction, unemployment, involvement with the criminal justice system, sexual exploitation and domestic abuse. By focusing on their strengths, potential and opportunities, we support the people we work with to overcome their problems and live safe, successful, independent lives.
Our charity is powered by over 600 passionate colleagues who bring a diverse and inclusive environment for our colleagues to grow. We are proud to say that many have actual lived experience of the challenges faced by those we support. We are looking for committed and compassionate professionals to join our team, who share our enthusiasm for changing lives.
About The Service - Women And Children's Services
We run services and dedicated women’s centres for those who are at risk or struggling with challenging circumstances, including women in the criminal justice system and those with experience of trauma, selling sex or sexual exploitation.
We understand that women and girls have experiences which are different to men and can experience vulnerabilities that are specific to their gender. Childhood abuse and domestic abuse are common features in the lives of the women we support which impact on their health and wellbeing. Underpinning all our services is an in-depth understanding of trauma and a focus on recovery, resilience and community integration.
About The Job
About the Project - The IRIS Project
Changing Lives have been providing a safe, confidential and supportive service for women involved in sex work, survival sex and those who are vulnerable to sexual exploitation for 9 years across Wolverhampton and Walsall, under the title The IRIS Project.
There has been an exciting new opportunity to join the established and passionate, all female, team operating as The IRIS Project. This new role will extend the services that they already provide, supporting vulnerable females that have experienced, or are at risk of experiencing, sexual exploitation, sex work, survival sex and sexual violence, with a specific focus on homelessness and tenancy sustainment. The role will involve a number of different styles of working across Walsall and Wolverhampton. There will be requirements to work from the Wolverhampton based office, outreach work and drop in sessions across both areas, partnership work across both areas and a small amount of working from home will be possible. The working hours are flexible but may contain some unsociable hours.
The project works in partnership with a number of organisations across the west midlands and incorporates a wide range of holistic support and outreach to vulnerable females that fit the remit of the project.
