Full job description

This is an exciting time to be joining this team, as funding has been extended and the project is really starting to make a difference to the lives of those families who are receiving support from Children Services. The role will involve one to one work with the safe parent, raising awareness and training staff to understand and recognise signs of domestic abuse, working alongside each other to advocate for parents who are struggling with difficult and abusive relationships.

About the role

We are recruiting an Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (Qualified IDVA or IDVA Practitioner to work towards IDVA qualification) to join the NDADA Children and Families Team, part of the Devon Domestic Abuse Alliance (DDAA). This is a vital role working alongside Devon Children’s Services to ensure victims of domestic abuse and their children are safe, supported, and able to access the right services at the right time.

You will be embedded within the Family Assessment and Intervention Team in Barnstaple, working closely with social workers and partner agencies. Some home working is possible, however you will be required to work from the location at least two days per week. Your caseload will predominantly cover North Devon area, and you will also need to be able to support clients in other areas depending on the needs of the service.

This role involves multi-agency working, flexibility, and a trauma-informed approach to encourage engagement and improve outcomes for families affected by domestic abuse.

About you

As an IDVA, you will provide proactive, specialist support to victims of domestic abuse, carrying out risk assessments, safety planning, advocacy, and system navigation. You will work closely with professionals across children’s services, housing, health, police, and the voluntary sector to coordinate responses and keep families safe.

You will also play a key role in challenging harmful narratives, reframing domestic abuse as a perpetrator choice, and fostering empathy and understanding for abused parents within safeguarding processes.

We recognise that no candidate will meet every element of the person specification and encourage applications from people with transferable skills and lived professional experience.

What we’re looking for

Essential:

· At least two years’ experience as an IDVA, YPVA or ISVA or similar practitioner work with domestic abuse awareness

· Experience supporting people affected by domestic abuse or other forms of interpersonal violence

· Strong understanding of safeguarding and risk assessment (DASH, MASH, MARAC)

· Trauma-informed approach to practice

· Excellent communication, listening, and advocacy skills

· Ability to work both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team

· Full driving licence with access to a vehicle for work purposes

· Commitment to confidentiality, equality, and anti-discriminatory practice

---

Why work with us?

· Be part of a values-led, trauma-informed alliance

· Work collaboratively across children’s and adult services

· Receive regular clinical and line supervision to support wellbeing and reflective practice

· Make a tangible difference to the safety and recovery of families across Devon

---

If you are passionate about supporting survivors, challenging systems, and working collaboratively to keep children and families safe, we would love to hear from you.
