Victim Support Scotland – Empowering People Affected by Crime.
We put victims and witnesses at the heart of everything we do so they are heard, have improved health and well-being, feel safer, more secure, and informed and that we are an effective organisation, that makes a lasting difference.
Who We Are?
Victim Support Scotland provides support and information to people affected by crime and campaigns for victim and witness rights. Regardless of whether a crime has been reported, or when it happened, our services are free, confidential, and tailored to individuals’ needs.
Our vision is that people affected by crime – victims, witnesses, and their families – are treated with dignity and respect and are at the heart of the justice in Scotland. Our mission is to ensure that all those affected by crime receive high quality support that will help them to recover from their experiences. All our work is guided and underpinned by our six core principles of being engaging and compassionate; inclusive and accessible; person-centred; adaptive, flexible, and responsive; collaborative; and knowledgeable and skilled.
Victim Support Scotland currently has two full-time vacancies in the Communications and External Affairs team to support our ambitious communications strategy. As part of a small team, you will work collaboratively to make sure the voices and experiences of victims and witnesses, staff and key stakeholders are heard. You will have a flair for story-telling and articulating complex issues, and you’ll do this with sensitivity and compassion. Working in a fast-paced environment, you’ll respond to tasks quickly and accurately, creating content in a variety of formats suitable for a range of key audiences.
