Full-time, 37.5 hours

Enhanced DBS required

The Community Development Worker will play a central role in delivering the Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges programme, leading system-wide improvements to how domestic abuse support is accessed by marginalised and underserved communities across North Lincolnshire.

This is a new and significant opportunity to reshape the local response to domestic abuse, ensuring that individuals who face additional barriers, including stigma, discrimination, invisibility, and barriers to safe disclosure, are able to access safe, appropriate and effective support.

The role is responsible for ensuring that professionals and community organisations working with marginalised groups have access to specialist domestic abuse advice, high-quality training, and clear, effective pathways into support services. Through this, the postholder will build confidence, strengthen practice, and improve outcomes across the wider system.
