We have a reasonable network already; you will be working with this and engaging in activities to grow it further.
We are seeking someone who will:
• Identify, develop and complete sales opportunities, ensuring the organisation’s sustainability and growth.
• Contribute to strategy and business development – key to this is the management of internal and
external stakeholders, including a key, valued partner organisation.
• Have a strong understanding of gambling harms, associated trends and the wider gambling sector.
• Be committed to developing awareness and understanding of gambling harms.
• Be a proactive ambassador of Safer Gambling Training, Phase Red and BKM Evolve.
