DAHA Membership Coordinator (Homelessness & Supported Accommodation)

Closing Date:

5pm, 01/09/2025



About Us



At Standing Together, we believe no one should live in fear, yet domestic abuse affects millions of people, often hidden in plain sight.



We don't provide frontline services. Instead, we work behind the scenes to change the systems that too often fail survivors; from housing and health to policing, social care and beyond.



As a second-tier organisation, we support and strengthen the work of others. We bring agencies together, build skills, offer expert consultancy and drive improvements in policy and practice -- so that people facing abuse get better, more joined-up support wherever they live.



We're best known for developing the Coordinated Community Response (CCR) a powerful model that gets services working together to prevent harm and keep people safe. It's now recognised across the UK and shapes everything we do.



Our work is proudly feminist and anti-racist. We know abuse doesn't exist in a vacuum it's linked to inequality, discrimination and injustice. That's why we're building a team that reflects the communities we serve, with space for diverse voices and lived experience.



We're remote-based but closely connected through shared values, mutual respect and a deep belief in the power of system change.



We stand with survivors. We stand for justice. We stand together for change. To read more about our amazing work click here.



The Opportunity



Be part of a national team improving how services respond to domestic abuse.



Standing Together is offering an exciting opportunity within our Housing team. Funded through MOPAC and Greater London Authority as a part of the Pan-London Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation (DASA) fund, we are looking for a Membership Coordinator to join the team.



The Membership Coordinator will be working on our DAHA Homelessness & Supported Accommodation project, which began in 2022, recognising the need for a dedicated framework of standards, tailored to the unique needs of homelessness and supported accommodation settings, to improve their response to domestic abuse. Alongside this, the Membership Coordinator will play a crucial role across the wider Multiple Disadvantage and Homelessness programme, holding responsibility for all administrative functions, as well as leading on the development and design of our external communications and social media posts relating to our projects.



To fulfil this role, we are looking for someone with a strong understanding of how domestic abuse, homelessness, addiction and poor mental health intersect, and who is passionate about bringing multiple disadvantage into focus, with strong administrative, IT and design skills. For further information about key responsibilities, please see the job description attached.
