Rape Crisis Scotland is Scotland’s leading organisation working to transform attitudes, improve responses and ultimately to end rape and sexual violence in Scotland. We work in partnership with the 17 local Rape Crisis Centres across Scotland and run the national Rape Crisis Scotland helpline.

This post is funded until September 2023, with the potential for further funding being sought.

This is a key role in Glasgow and Clyde Rape Crisis Centre providing specific prevention and education services for the benefit of children, young people and learners participating in further and higher education. Our prevention service is known as Rosey, which stands for Rape Crisis Offering Support and Education to Young People.

The role requires a strong commitment to anti-discriminatory and equalities work and must demonstrate experience and confidence in developing, delivering, and evaluating innovative and engaging events with a range of diverse participants. The post holder will be capable in representing the service externally across agencies and representing GCRC in relevant networks, forums and working groups. Experience and understanding of working within an organisation that operates within a feminist, equalities and human rights framework is preferable for this role. Joining an already established team, this role will work to the Team Leader for the Project, whilst also being accountable for maintaining and applying the values, principles, and competences for the role to the Director of the Centre.

Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre (SBRCC) provides a safe, non-threatening environment where survivors can talk freely and in confidence. We support all self-identifying females aged 18+ and all young people of any gender/gender identity aged between 12 and 18, who have experienced rape or any form of sexual violence, either recently or in the past. We work in partnership with others towards the elimination of violence against women.

We are an all-women organisation, believing that this allows us to offer the most appropriate and secure support to women and young people affected by rape and other forms of sexual violence. While we acknowledge that men experience rape and sexual violence, we also know that most incidents are committed against women by men, and it is to women that our efforts are primarily directed. Rape and sexual violence are crimes of violence against women and girls which reflect inequality in our society: redressing this inequality defines our work with women and girls who have experienced rape and other forms sexual violence.

Job Purpose

SBRCC recognises that currently survivors accessing our services are not representative of the diverse society in which we live, for the reason we are committed to increasing our engagement and participation within diverse intersectional communities. This post will specifically focus and bring expertise and knowledge to further our intersectional approach. The role aims to increase our reach and engage survivors specifically within rural and remote communities, LGBTQI, BME, children & young people, disability, older women and survivors with learning difficulties.

Only women need apply under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
