Floating Support Worker
Are you looking for a rewarding role working for an intersectional feminist organisation? If so, we have an incredible opportunity for you to join our team as Floating Support Worker at Solace Women's Aid.
We exist to end the harm caused by gender-based violence.

Our work is holistic and empowering, working alongside survivors to achieve independent lives free from abuse.
About the Role
The Floating Support Worker will complete risk and needs assessments, develop safety and support plans, and provide ongoing support to survivors of domestic abuse whose level of risk has reduced to medium risk following specialist intervention. The postholder will hold a caseload of survivors requiring practical, emotional and advocacy support to help them increase their safety, access appropriate services, regain independence and work towards their longer-term goals.
Key Requirements
- Highly organised and self-motivated
- Passionate about ending gender-based violence
- “Can-do” approach
- Demonstrable commitment to Solace’s feminist approach to supporting women and their children to be safer
