Community Safety Coordinator
General Information: County Leitrim, located in the North-West of Ireland, has a growing economy, picturesque landscape, vibrant communities and a strong arts and cultural sector. Leitrim County Council’s vision is to build an economically strong, creative, inclusive county, making Leitrim the best place to live, work, invest and visit. Key to the achievement of our priorities and objectives is a skilled and committed workforce, supported by enabling technologies, efficient work processes and learning and development opportunities. We are committed to the training, support and encouragement of our staff and we offer benefits across family friendly initiatives, personal development and wellbeing of staff. The Background: The Department of Justice has developed a new Community Safety Policy based on a key principle that policing is not the responsibility of the police alone and involves other agencies of Government such as health and social services. The Community Safety Policy proposes a whole-of-government approach to community safety. At the heart of this policy is the principle that every community has the right to be, and feel safe, in order to thrive and flourish. This new approach will be delivered through Local Community Safety Partnerships (LCSPs), supported through a national governance structure. This structure will ensure that communities are empowered to have a strong say in what actions are prioritised by the services operating in their area and will also have a key oversight role in ensuring those actions are followed through. Objectives of the LCSPs The partnership approach is built on two premises: 1. Every community is different and has different problems and issues. 2. Responding to those problems and issues requires a range of inputs from across Government, local services, voluntary sector and the community itself. The response to the issues identified above requires the following elements: 1. Community engagement in identifying what the needs of the community are. 2. Commitment and buy-in from State, local and voluntary service providers to work together to address those needs. The LCSPs aim to foster sustained community involvement in identifying needs and co-designing solutions, and sustained commitment from services in working together to address those needs. Structure of LCSPs Membership of each LCSP will include residents, community representatives (including representatives of youth), new communities and the voluntary sector, business and education representatives, relevant public services in the area (including HSE, Tusla, An Garda Síochána and the local authority) and local councillors. The LCSP will have a maximum of 30 members. The Role: The Community Safety Coordinator will support Leitrim Local Community Safety Partnership (LCSP) in its work to bring together a diverse group of agencies and residents to engage in joint planning and coordination of services for the community. A main focus will be the design and delivery of community safety projects in the relevant local authority area. The successful candidate will be a key driving force for the work of Leitrim LCSP. They will coordinate an office, which will act as a hub for the local community in relation to community safety. The Community Safety Coordinator will act as a support to community members to identify local priorities and access relevant services, as well as assisting Leitrim LCSP in drafting and delivering on a local community safety plan. The Community Safety Coordinator will manage the work of the Community Safety Administrator and will be responsible for the day to day running of the community safety activities for Leitrim LCSP. The role is diverse and multifaceted, and the learnings from the pilots have demonstrated that the successful candidate should: ▪ Demonstrate the ability to engage positively with a diverse range of individuals. ▪ Have proven experience in developing and managing relationships with a diverse group of stakeholders. ▪ Demonstrate a proven ability to achieve goals and meet deadlines. ▪ Demonstrate the ability to work in a community setting with a wide variety of organisations, services and groups. ▪ Demonstrate strong leadership skills, sound judgement, self-motivation and strong interpersonal skills. ▪ Have confidence to work on their own initiative. ▪ Have excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
