Child abuse is preventable if we all work together.

This is our belief. It drives us. Our purpose is to work with communities to fight for every childhood.

Do you want to join a team where you can grow, lead and drive change?

You'll become part of a team that cares about the work they do and the people they work with. You'll discover opportunities to grow, creatively address challenges, and work with others towards to inclusive and lasting change. As local lead, you'll get to find your own way to make a difference that means more, and support those you work with to thrive in their roles.

This role will manage a Research and Evaluation Assistant, and together the Glasgow Together for Childhood evaluation team will lead on developing new and interesting opportunities to understand and assess how the initiative is working for children and families in their local communities.

Do you want to lead on innovative research and evaluation to tackle child abuse and neglect?

Together for Childhood sites are places of continuous learning and the NSPCC conducts research and evaluation to provide insight into what works and what makes a difference.

We're looking for an experienced researcher to lead on the design and implementation of local evaluation projects, as well as supporting the central evaluation of Together for Childhood. Specifically we're looking for:

Every childhood is worth fighting for. This is our belief. It drives us. And it's the reason our Children's Services team push themselves to transform the lives of children and families – in person, in service centres nationwide, and through the knowledge they share. Join us as our Children's Service Practitioner – Social Worker and make a contribution that means everything.

Together for Childhood is a place based approach to prevention of child abuse and neglect.
