About RASAC P&K

Our Mission… Working Together to end Sexual Violence

RASAC P&K is an established 3rd sector feminist, survivor centred organisation, we work towards our mission by providing a range of Support, Prevention and Advocacy services for survivors of sexual violence living across Perth and Kinross.

Who we’re looking for…

Are you passionate about supporting survivors of sexual violence and making a real difference?

We’re looking for a compassionate and dedicated Justice Advocacy Worker to provide emotional, practical and specialist support to survivors engaging with, or considering engaging with the criminal justice system. You’ll work alongside partner agencies to improve survivor experiences, support access to vital services and raise awareness of our advocacy service. If you’re committed to empowering survivors and driving positive change, we’d love to hear from you.

At RASAC, we take a whole-person approach. This means the role is varied and may involve supporting survivors who experience challenges with trust, self-esteem, self-care, relationships, or education. Some may also use self-harm or substances as coping strategies. Because of this, we’re looking for someone who is kind, empathetic, and non-judgmental, while also confident in maintaining safe boundaries and adapting their approach to meet the individual needs of each person.

You should have a consistent and reliable work ethic, and be comfortable working within a culture that values respect, integrity, and innovation. The role also requires a willingness to reflect, appropriately challenge both yourself and others, and actively share knowledge and learning with colleagues.

Support is provided within our city centre premises, and in community/public locations across Perth and Kinross, therefore a full driving licence and access to a vehicle is a requirement of this post. Travel will also be expected across Scotland when supporting survivors to court (you will not be expected to transport survivors to and from appointments/court).
