About Surviving Economic Abuse

At Surviving Economic Abuse, we deal with one of society’s biggest issues. Last year, 5.5 million UK women reported that a current or former partner had controlled their economic resources – money and the things it can buy such as food, clothing, transportation, and housing.

Through economic control, abusers limit women’s freedom, they steal their futures, and, in far too many cases, they take their lives. Yet too few people are aware of economic abuse – even those who experience it.

We are the only UK charity dedicated to raising awareness of economic abuse and transforming responses to it. The speed and scale of our growth since 2017 are evidence of how much we are needed. We may be young, but we are already creating big waves.

What we offer you

We offer a range of benefits including: 

• 25 days annual leave (pro rata), plus 5 Wellbeing Days (pro rata) and Statutory Bank Holidays 

• Flexible working 

• Working from home 

• 3% Employer Pension Contribution 

• Reflective practice and Employee Assistance Programme 

• The chance to be part of our highly professional, supportive team
