It’s an exciting time for an experienced Service Manager to join us and lead on the delivery and development of our new services for both perpetrators and victims of domestic abuse across Birmingham and the Black Country.
Initially your focus will be on establishing and promoting our recently set up Choose2Change behaviour change programme and delivering the OPCC funded Pathways to Change Project for perpetrators of domestic abuse in Sandwell, working closely with other partners and ensuring that targets are met.
