Work for us
Dear Candidate,
Thank you for your interest in joining the team at Stop Domestic Abuse.
Stop Domestic Abuse provides all services to those affected by domestic abuse including so called ‘honour’ based violence, female genital mutilation, forced marriage and other harmful cultural practices.
Our vision is ‘A World Without Domestic Abuse’ and we are dedicated to empowering victims and survivors to live their life free from abuse.
We are in an exciting time, following a period of growth where we consolidated our role as the principal provider of all domestic abuse services across all 11 Hampshire districts and Portsmouth.
With growth comes opportunity. We are investing in our organisational infrastructure to ensure we can respond to and reach more of those affected by domestic abuse. We will continue to prioritise our core values and implement new and innovative approaches to support long term sustainability and meet service demand.
