This is an opportunity to use your training skills to create real change in how gambling harms are understood and addressed. If you are an experienced facilitator with a passion for inclusive learning and social impact, this is your chance to help frontline teams across the UK better understand and respond to gambling harms.
The Role
At GamCare, we are recruiting a Training Lead to join our Women’s Programme — a national initiative designed to raise awareness of how gambling harm can affect women, and to ensure those affected are recognised and supported.
This is a home-based role with some travel for face-to-face sessions. You will be delivering high-quality, engaging training to a wide range of professionals, helping them build knowledge, confidence, and practical tools to support the people they work with.

This position is home-based, with some nationwide travel to deliver training sessions and attendance at two development days per year (location within the UK).
About you
You will bring proven experience in designing and delivering adult training that drives behaviour change — ideally within the charity, health, or social care sectors. You understand how to engage diverse audiences, adapt your approach, and measure impact. You are comfortable working independently but thrive as part of a collaborative team, and you care about making your work accessible, inclusive, and relevant to those who need it most.
Working at GamCare
At GamCare, we’re a growing charity with a clear mission: to reduce gambling harms and support those affected. Every role here has purpose, whether it’s frontline support, programme delivery, or behind-the-scenes infrastructure. We’re proud to be a welcoming, inclusive employer offering flexible working, wellbeing support, and genuine opportunities to learn and grow. We actively welcome applicants with lived experience and from all backgrounds, because better outcomes start with diverse perspectives.
