We’re proud of the work we do, and we’re now looking for a Domestic Abuse Practitioner (Children and Young People). This new post has been made possible through two years’ grant funding from the Masonic Charitable Foundation and is embedded within the Bradford RESET team. The role is for 22.5 hours per week over 3 days, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
We are looking for a highly skilled, engaging and innovative practitioner with strong experience of working with children and young people. You will have exceptional relationship-building and engagement skills, with the ability to connect with young people in a way that is authentic, inspiring and builds trust over time. You will be confident working in a needs-led and flexible way, while operating safely within a structured, safeguarding-led framework.
The role requires someone who works positively as part of a team and alongside multi-agency professionals, bringing strong communication, collaboration and professional judgement. Above all, you will be passionate about amplifying young people’s voices and committed to shaping support that genuinely works for them.
Bradford RESET (Recognise, Engage, Support Everyone to Transform) is a district-wide, trauma-informed service commissioned by Bradford Council and led by The Bridge Project. It provides a whole-system, multi-agency response to domestic abuse, working with both people who cause harm and those affected by it.
The model is built around a whole-family approach, ensuring that alongside behaviour change work with those causing harm, parallel support, safety planning and recovery support is provided to victims, partners and family members through dedicated Family Workers and specialist services.
Within RESET, Family Workers play a key role in identifying and supporting victim-survivors and their families. Through this work, they develop a clear understanding of risk, need and the lived experience of children and young people affected by domestic abuse.
This role sits within that structure. The Domestic Abuse Practitioner (Children and Young People) will receive referrals directly from Bradford RESET Family Workers, who will identify young people (aged 11–17) within families already engaged in the programme. This ensures that support for children and young people is:
This post extends Bradford RESET’s whole-system approach by providing targeted, developmentally appropriate support for adolescents affected by domestic abuse, ensuring their voices, needs and experiences are central to how support is designed and delivered.
It is essential that the successful candidate has a full driving licence and access to a vehicle with business insurance, as the role could not be effectively delivered without this. An enhanced DBS is also a requirement of the role.
Joining The Bridge Project means becoming part of a team that values you, your wellbeing, your growth, and your future. Alongside a rewarding career, you’ll enjoy a benefits package designed to help you thrive:

Are you passionate about making a difference to the lives of those who need it most? If so, we have a rewarding opportunity and would love to hear from you!
New Vision Bradford is a partnership between the Bridge Project, Create Strength Group, Project 6 and Waythrough. Under this umbrella, the partnership delivers an adult drug and alcohol service for the Bradford and Craven District, aiming to help people tackle the use of alcohol and drugs and reduce risk taking behaviours through dedicated prevention, intervention, and support.
The Bridge Project is excited to be recruiting a full-time Rough Sleeper Recovery Coordinator, joining the New Vision Bradford partnership to make a real impact in people’s lives. It is essential that the successful applicant can travel across the district, getting to different locations so a full driving licence, access to a vehicle and business insurance for work purposes is an essential requirement.
The role will work as part of the multi-disciplinary team delivering high-quality drug and alcohol treatment by supporting service users from point of entry into the service and throughout their treatment and recovery journey. Outreach is a key component of the role to connect with individuals rough sleeping or at risk of rough sleeping with substance use concerns and other unmet needs, which may include mental or physical health, relationships, finances or criminal justice involvement.
You will play a crucial role acting as the main care coordinator for an assigned group of service users, coordinating tailor made packages of care and providing vital support, including comprehensive assessments, recovery planning, one to one key work, recognised psychosocial interventions and harm minimisation.
Everything we do aims to positively impact the lives of rough sleepers or those at risk of rough sleeping. In order to be considered for this role you will need 2 years’ full-time experience of working with people with alcohol and/or drug problems and/or people with complex and multiple needs within a 4-year period as well as being able to demonstrate experience of case management and delivering care coordination in drug and alcohol or a directly related field.
We are looking for someone who is dedicated and passionate about supporting others to make change. You will be highly organised with excellent communication skills and able to manage your time effectively, working as part of the team with a co-operative approach to supporting colleagues to ensure a high-quality service is maintained, whilst applying your knowledge and understanding of drug and alcohol issues.
There is an element of flexibility around working hours required by the postholder. A willingness to undergo an enhanced DBS check is also a requirement of the post (the results of which would not necessarily exclude applicants from consideration).

The Bridge Project is a well-established Bradford charity with over 40 years’ experience, employing over 130 staff across the district. We deliver a wide range of integrated services supporting people affected by domestic abuse, drug and alcohol use, homelessness, mental health challenges, and complex trauma. Our work is rooted in compassion, partnership, and a strong commitment to reducing harm and creating lasting change.
Are you ready to use your skills to help reduce serious harm and create safer futures for children and adults? We are recruiting a full-time Case Manager to join a skilled, multi-disciplinary team delivering the Drive Project, in Bradford — a nationally recognised, evidence-based response to high-harm domestic abuse. This is a unique opportunity to help shape a purpose-built service, working alongside experienced practitioners across a range of roles to deliver a coordinated, safe and effective response that makes a meaningful difference.
The Drive Project is a well-established national model, reflecting sustained national commitment to coordinated, whole-system responses to domestic abuse. In Bradford, the service is being delivered by The Bridge Project in partnership with the Drive Central Team and West Yorkshire Combined Authority and is fully embedded within local safeguarding and partnership arrangements.
We work with individuals who pose the highest risk of causing serious harm within intimate or family relationships. The programme combines intensive individual case management with a coordinated multi-agency response, creating the conditions for accountability, behaviour change and sustained risk reduction, while keeping victim and survivor safety at the centre of all activity.
The team will operate with fidelity to the Drive model, a trauma-informed, strengths-based framework, balancing challenge and accountability with engagement and support. Staff will work closely with a range of systems and service such as police, probation, children’s and adult safeguarding, housing, health and specialist adult and child domestic abuse services to ensure a coordinated and effective response to high-risk harm and victim/survivor safety.
We are looking for a skilled, values-driven practitioner who is committed to reducing harm and improving safety for children and adults affected by domestic abuse. You will bring relevant professional experience, strong assessment, engagement and communication skills, and the ability to work confidently with complexity, risk and challenge. We are seeking someone who can balance clear boundaries and accountability with empathy, curiosity and respect, and who is to work reflectively within a trauma-informed, strengths-based framework.
You will be comfortable working as part of a multi-disciplinary team and in close partnership with other agencies, sharing information appropriately and contributing to collective decision-making. We are particularly keen to hear from people who value learning, supervision and reflective practice, and who want to help shape and embed a high-quality service within a well-established national model.
