Case Assessor in Rebel Support Team

What will you be doing?

The Case Assessors are part of Rebel Support, and are a group of rebels who investigate the harmful behaviour cases.

We want to build up a pool of Case Assessors. You will only be asked to act as part of the Case Assessor team in each case if you have no history of working with the person against whom the complaint is made (the Person Under Review), and can be impartial.

You will be guided by a Case Assessor Guide, who will support you in carrying out your role. Rebel Support have developed a process which is followed in all cases.

You will interview people during the investigation, both the complainant and the Person Under Review, and people who speak in support of each party, writing notes from the interviews and drawing up reports.

You and others in the Case Assessor team will collate all the information from the interviews and will decide on the outcome of cases.

When cases come in there are weekly meetings. We might have an intense period and meet more than once a week when a case comes in, as it's best for all concerned that the process is as quick as reasonably possible. So it is useful for applicants to have some flexibility with their time. There will be (sometimes long) quiet periods between cases, but you will need to be 'on call' in case one come in.

What are we looking for?

Experience of mediation.

To look at facts presented and make an unbiased decision.

To have experience as a case assessor.

Interested in conflict resolution processes

What difference will you make?

Case assessors provide an impartiality to both the complainer and the complainant and assures a fair decision. We have a Harmful Behaviour Process and a case assessor is part of that but not part of the Extinction Rebellion organisation.

Anything else...

Dependent on frequency of cases coming in.
