Handyperson South - 7194

The National Referral Mechanism is a vital framework designed to identify and support victims of human trafficking and modern slavery. NRMs play a crucial role in ensuring that children who are at risk or who have experienced exploitation receive the appropriate protection and assistance. The primary objective of NRMs is to streamline and coordinate the efforts of various stakeholders, such as law enforcement agencies, social services, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and other relevant bodies, to provide a comprehensive response to human trafficking and modern slavery and ensure the safeguarding of the child.The context in which NRMs operate is often complex and multifaceted. Human trafficking and modern slavery are crimes that can have far-reaching consequences, impacting not only the individuals directly involved but also their families, communities, and societies at large. The victims of these crimes are often vulnerable individuals who may be subjected to physical and psychological abuse, forced labour, sexual exploitation, and other forms of coercion. The hidden nature of these crimes makes it challenging to identify victims and provide them with the necessary support. The National Referral Mechanism identifies and protects victims of exploitation, including children at risk. This role will support the coordination of Birmingham's Devolved Home Office NRM Decision-making process for children including organising and facilitation of the Panel's operations, and logging referrals.
