East Dunbartonshire Women’s Aid (EDWA) is looking for a passionate and skilled individual to lead our early intervention and prevention work with young people aged 11-18. This vital role aims to prevent domestic abuse by promoting healthy relationships and empowering young people to challenge harmful behaviours.

As our Children and Young Person's Prevention Worker, you will design and deliver educational workshops within schools and community settings in East Dunbartonshire. These sessions will address key topics such as healthy relationships, emotional well-being, and challenging misogynistic behaviours. You’ll also collaborate with schools and partner agencies to develop tailored interventions that inspire change and build resilience in young people.

The role involves developing creative resources, engaging with diverse audiences, and keeping on top of emerging trends like the influence of online media. You’ll provide post-session support by signposting further resources or referrals where needed and ensure robust monitoring and reporting to demonstrate the impact of the work.

Candidates should have:

• Experience in delivering engaging educational workshops tailored for young people in schools or community settings.
• An understanding of domestic abuse and gender-based violence, including how social norms and online influences contribute to harmful behaviours.
• A clear passion for working with young people around this subject matter.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills to connect with young people, professionals, and partner organisations.
• A deep awareness and understanding of teenage culture, social media platforms, and emerging trends—including the language young people use, key influencers, and digital spaces. The ability to incorporate this knowledge into workshops in a relatable and impactful way is essential.
• Strong organisational and IT skills, with the ability to create resources, track progress, and report on impact.
• A firm commitment to feminist principles and gender equality

The role will involve work across East Dunbartonshire, particularly in schools. Attendance will be required at weekly team meetings in our main office in Kirkintilloch to fulfil collective management responsibilities. Flexibility and the ability to travel throughout the local area are essential.

This is an exciting and necessary new post which is currently funded by East Dunbartonshire Council through the Children & Families Wellbeing Fund for 1 year (after start date), with the opportunity to reapply in Year 2.

Posts are subject to a successful PVG scheme check, suitable references and completion of a satisfactory 6-month induction period. Applicants must also demonstrate they have the right to legally work in the UK.

Relevant PVG and disclosure checks will apply.
