Financial Support Line
This project is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund. Please note that this post is only open to female applicants as being female is deemed to be a genuine occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
The Financial Support Line provides one-off support and guidance to victims of domestic and economic abuse who are struggling to manage their money. It provides a safe space for the victim-survivor to discuss their financial situation and allows them to prioritise issues and move forward with economic safety.
Economic abuse is a form of coercive and controlling behaviour. 95% of women who experience domestic abuse will experience economic abuse. It limits their choices and ability to access safety. This award-winning service is run by Money Advice Plus in partnership with Surviving Economic Abuse.
This is a rewarding role where you really can make a difference to women's lives. You will help shape the way we operate the Financial Support Line, lead the team delivering the service, and provide line management support and direction. You will also lead on training for our external stakeholders on use of the Economic Abuse Evidence Form and associated issues.
Alongside the Service Manager, and the Deputy Service Manager leading the Casework element of our work, you will play a key role in developing our services for this client group.
