SARC Coordinator

The Swindon Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) is looking for a part time office based coordinator to support the smooth running of the Service. The post holder will work along side and support the SARC Manager and SARC Team Leader. The SARC Coordinator is the first point of contact on the SARC office phone line for clients and professionals. The successful candidate will be fully trained as a Crisis Worker and will be expected to provide cover on the Crisis Worker rota as required. The SARC Coordinator will be required to support clients at the Gloucester SARC for an interim period while necessary building works are completed at the Swindon SARC. During this period you will be provided with an alternative office location from which to work within Swindon. The post holder will be required to provide Crisis Worker cover during periods of staff absence, such as annual leave or sickness. This may include undertaking Crisis Worker duties during their standard working day (09:00–17:00), and where required, providing on-call cover between 07:00–09:00 and 17:00 – 19:15. During on-call periods, the post holder will be responsible for managing the telephone and responding to client needs and may be required to attend the SARC outside of standard working hours where an in-person response is required. This will be arranged in line with service need and with reasonable notice wherever possible. The post holder will need to be able to attend the Swindon SARC within 90 minutes of a call out and attend the Gloucester SARC within 2 hours of a call out. The SARC Coordinator will provide accurate and timely reports and data submissions for internal and external reporting purposes.
