Make a difference in the lives of children affected by domestic abuse. PACT’s Bounce Back 4 Kids (BB4K) team is growing, and we need a passionate individual to join us in this innovative programme.

­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­Bounce Back for Kids (BB4K) is a lifeline for children healing from the trauma of domestic abuse. Sadly, the demand for our programme continues to rise. We supported 223 families in 2023 through individual and group therapeutic support sessions.

We are recruiting a Support Worker to be a guiding hand for children and families on their healing journey.

At PACT, we offer:

• A chance to use your skills to directly impact a vulnerable community.
• A supportive and collaborative work environment where your contribution is valued.
• The opportunity to learn and grow professionally alongside dedicated experts in trauma recovery.
• The immense satisfaction of knowing you’re making a lasting difference in children’s lives.

For an informal conversation about the role please contact Luke Pepperell, BB4K Manager by email to arrange luke@pactcharity.org. If you would like to visit our office and meet the team before you apply, please do email Luke to make arrangements.

We particularly encourage applications from those with personal or work experience in the field of domestic abuse who meet the essential requirements for the role.

We continuously look to progress the ways in which we bring people together and encourage applications from people across all communities.  We are committed to ensuring that our people and our services reflect the diversity of the communities we serve and applications from people from under-represented groups are particularly welcomed.

Anyone joining our team is subject to PACT’s Safer Recruitment pre-appointment enquiries.  These include the provision of documentation of the right to work in the UK, Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) check, overseas police check where applicable and references covering a minimum 5 year period.  All opportunities are based in the UK.
