About us
The Lucy Faithfull Foundation is dedicated solely to preventing child sexual abuse. We run the Stop It Now! helpline and campaign. Our mission is to prevent sexual abuse from happening by working with those perpetrating it, those affected by it and with protective adults who can keep children safe.
We are an influential charity and we're growing. Our work is vital and has real impact - every day we protect children from harm.
About the role and you
We are recruiting a skilled and experienced professional practitioner to join our multi-disciplinary, innovative team. You will carry out assessments and interventions for local authorities in cases where sexual abuse is known or suspected, provide advice to our Stop It Now helpline and deliver training to other professionals as well as contributing to wider service developments within the charity.
Our practitioners use their experience and expert knowledge working with individuals who have been convicted or accused of sexual abuse toward children and protective adults where there have been concerns about child sexual abuse. You will be able to demonstrate confidence in translating the charity's mission into direct child protection practice and equip other professionals in tackling child sexual abuse through training and consultancy.
This is a highly rewarding role within a friendly, supportive and hardworking team which is committed to keeping children safe from sexual harm.

We offer hybrid working with 2 days required in the office, a Nest pension, 25 days annual leave rising to 30 days (plus statutory bank holidays) after 5 years' service, up to 5 days learning and development per year, an employee assistance programme and the option of Benenden medical cover.
