The role requires the capacity to maintain firm boundaries and use authority appropriately while working pro-socially and positively with others, alongside an understanding of the emotional and behavioural impact of trauma and the ability to support people who may display a wide range of emotions, behaviours and communication challenges. It calls for strong engagement and communication skills, a flexible and responsive approach, and an optimistic belief in people's capacity to change.
