Why Join Age UK Lambeth?
At Age UK Lambeth, we believe getting older should be celebrated, not sidelined. We exist to challenge the stigma of ageing, tackle social isolation, and make sure older adults get the right support at the precise moment they need it.

The Role: What You’ll Be Doing
Gambling-related harm often goes unnoticed, carrying a heavy stigma for those affected—both directly and indirectly (affected others). Through our Better Together service, you will be on the frontline of changing that narrative in Lambeth.
This role is a dynamic blend of proactive community engagement and impactful, one-to-one support.
Community Engagement and System Change
Meet people where they are: Take our message straight into the heart of Lambeth—visiting barbershops, faith groups, sports venues, shopping centres, and local cultural hubs.
Build local alliances: Partner with community leaders, residents, and local organisations to spark open conversations, break down stigma, and drive referrals.
Educate and inspire: Deliver lively presentations, host information sessions, and help run conferences to train local professionals and raise public awareness while helping to normalise conversations about gambling harms so they are easier to recognise, prevent, and seek support for.
Personalised, Strengths-Based Support
Provide 1:1 tailored advice: Work directly with adults impacted by gambling harm to identify their strengths, set personal goals, and rebuild their wellbeing.
Offer holistic social prescribing support: Guide clients toward specialist care (such as the NHS Primary Care Gambling Service) while helping them navigate connected challenges like housing, debt, loneliness, and mental health.
What You’ll Bring to the Team
Outreach Expertise: Proven experience stepping out into the community, running outreach activities, and speaking confidently to audiences of all sizes.
Relationship Building: Natural networking skills with a knack for establishing trust with community groups, residents, and multi-agency partners.
Caseload Management: The ability to work independently, manage shifting priorities, and adapt seamlessly as our service grows.
Clear Communication: Warm, engaging interpersonal skills paired with clean, accurate record-keeping.
Empathy & Drive: A genuine commitment to person-centered support and outcome-focused work.
Energy & Enthusiasm: Bring warmth, energy, and a positive spark to every interaction, making conversations engaging, memorable, and impactful.
Please don’t worry if you do not have experience working with those affected by gambling, Age UK Lambeth will provide full training including Level 2 under the “Don’t Gamble With Health” programme.
Why You’ll Love Working Here
Strong Financial Support: Generous pension plan with a 7% employer contribution.
Work-Life Balance: 26 days of annual leave (plus public holidays), increasing to 31 days after 5 years.
A Culture That Cares: Join a supportive, warm team that puts kindness and flexibility at the core of everything we do.

The Parliamentary and Public Affairs Adviser and Researcher to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Archbishop of York manages the public affairs of the Archbishops, including their parliamentary work in the House of Lords and other research needs. As a member of the Faith and Public Life Team, which serves both the Archbishops and the wider Church of England, the role is designed to be the personal connection within this team for the Archbishops, focused specifically on managing the events and interventions they make in the public sphere and Parliament, as well as providing relevant public policy research.
This post sits within Faith and Public Life (FPL), the team that supports the Church of England's work in the public sphere, and specifically supports the work of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Archbishop of York across a wide range of topics, from their role in Church and state relations, to their witness on issues of social justice. The work is set in the context of the priority areas of the Archbishop's ministry, the Quinquennium goals of the Church of England, and the five marks of mission of the Anglican Communion. Policy and research on these areas are carried out within the Faith and Public Life team, and so the post will link across all the areas of work in FPL.
The Public Affairs Adviser/Researcher to the Archbishops fulfils this role under the supervision of the Director of the Faith and Public Life team, and the Head of Parliamentary Affairs for the Church of England, working closely with colleagues in the Office of the Archbishops at Lambeth and Bishopthorpe Palaces, the Public Policy Team and the Parliamentary Unit of FPL.
As a link between the Archbishops and the Faith and Public Life team, the post-holder will have frequent personal contact with the Archbishops and close working relationships across the team, ensuring, through the Director, that the Archbishops can avail themselves of all the skills and experience held within the team as required. The post-holder's research activities will contribute to, and be coordinated with, wide research activities of FPL's Public Policy team.
As the overall Parliamentary engagement of the Lords Spiritual and Second Church Estates Commissioner is coordinated through the Parliamentary Team within FPL, the post holder will be a full member of the Team and will be line managed, for that part of the work, by the Head of Parliamentary Affairs.
The role involves the briefing and management of events and meetings held by the Archbishops, and the management of their interventions in the House of Lords, including speechwriting. It also involves carrying out research both at the specific request of the Archbishops, and, where possible, assisting the Public Policy team in research that supports the wider Church of England.
Key duties include:
The post holder will also assist with day-to-day duties, such as drafting briefings and correspondence, and assisting with the drafting of speeches and written material for use by the Archbishops.
The postholder will be required to have basic DBS clearance.

Director – Jamma Wellbeing
Build the model. Prove the impact. Scale through partners.
Jamma Wellbeing is looking for an exceptional Director to lead the organisation through its next stage of development.
This is an opportunity for an experienced, entrepreneurial leader to bring their judgement, experience and vision to work closely with a passionate Founder and Board to shape the future of an ambitious wellbeing charity.
Jamma Wellbeing exists to empower people so they can navigate life with greater confidence and choice. At the heart of our work is Brain Smart®, a practical wellbeing education framework that makes complex psychological ideas understandable and useful. Brain Smart is already being delivered through partnerships in prisons, schools, communities and workplaces.
We now want to build on that foundation.
The opportunity is to help build and deliver Jamma Wellbeing’s future model: delivering a sharper strategy, developing a strong operating model, building the right partnerships and creating a sustainable route to greater impact.
For the right person, this is much more than a conventional charity Director role. It is a chance to help build an organisation capable of changing how practical wellbeing education is delivered — taking useful, evidence-informed ideas to more people through trusted partners.
The role
The Director will lead Jamma Wellbeing from its current stage into a focused, sustainable and scalable organisation.
You will work closely with the Founder and team, while having real responsibility for translating ambition into delivery.
Key priorities will include:
Commercial responsibility is an important part of the role. We want to increase Jamma's reach and impact, but to do so in a way that is financially sustainable and protects the quality, integrity and safety of the programme.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for a builder.
Someone who is energised by creating something that does not yet fully exist, who can see the big picture but is equally comfortable turning ideas into plans, decisions, partnerships and measurable results.
You are likely to bring:
Experience in education, youth, health and wellbeing, charities, social enterprise or public-sector commissioning would be valuable, but we are equally interested in strong leaders from outside the traditional charity sector who are attracted by the opportunity to apply their experience to social impact.
Experience of licensing, accreditation, train-the-trainer or another partner-led scaling model would also be an advantage.
The kind of leader who will thrive here
You will be commercially astute but purpose-led; ambitious but pragmatic; collaborative but prepared to make decisions.
You will be comfortable working in an organisation where not everything is already established.
Most importantly, you will care about creating something useful and enduring — an organisation capable of improving wellbeing, particularly for young people, at meaningful scale without losing the simplicity, quality and humanity at the heart of its work.
About Jamma Wellbeing
Jamma Wellbeing is a registered charity with a simple vision:
A future where understanding and shaping your wellbeing is a basic life skill for everyone.
We work through trusted organisations and partners to bring practical wellbeing education to the people and communities they already serve.
Our emerging model is deliberately designed for scale: Jamma develops and improves the programme, materials, accreditation, safeguarding, quality and evaluation framework, while partners bring the audience, setting and trusted local delivery capability.
If you are excited by the opportunity to help shape an organisation, build a sustainable model and create meaningful impact at scale, we would like to hear from you.
Please apply with your CV and a covering letter (max 2 sides A4)
Interviews by video, will take place on the 16th, 17th or 18th September and if successful, a second in person interview will take place during the week commencing 5th October in Surrey.
