Community Support Adviser (South Asian Communities)
21 hours per week | Wednesday to Friday between 9am and 5pm | £15,234.60 - £16,470 per annum

This is more than a job. It's an opportunity to help people feel understood, supported and connected.

At Alzheimer's Society, we believe nobody should face dementia alone.

Every day, we support people living with dementia, their families and carers to access information, practical support and local connections that help them live well.

We're looking for a compassionate and proactive Community Support Adviser to join Team Sahara, supporting South Asian communities across Greater Manchester.

Team Sahara is a dedicated service supporting South Asian communities affected by dementia across Greater Manchester. We work alongside people living with dementia, families, carers, community groups, faith organisations and local partners to help people access the support, information and connections they need to live well with dementia.

You don't need experience in dementia, healthcare or social care to apply. We're looking for people who can bring transferable skills and a genuine passion for supporting others.

You may have gained these skills through customer service, retail, education, housing, hospitality, community work, charities, faith organisations or other people focused roles. You may also have personal experience of supporting or caring for someone affected by dementia.

If you can build relationships, listen with empathy, communicate confidently, solve problems and help people feel understood and supported, you may already have the skills we're looking for.

Whatever your background, what matters most is your ability to connect with people, build trust and make a positive difference.

Is this role for you?

This role could be a great fit if you enjoy meeting people, building relationships and spending time out in your community.

You'll spend most of your working week out and about across Greater Manchester, supporting people affected by dementia, attending community events, working alongside local organisations and helping people access the support they need.

You'll regularly travel between different locations across Greater Manchester, manage your own diary and build relationships with a wide range of people. This role involves being out in communities throughout the week, so you'll need to be comfortable travelling independently and working across different locations as part of your normal working pattern.

While some planning and administration can be completed from home, the focus of this role is being present in communities, meeting people face to face and building trusted local connections.

If you enjoy variety, independence and working with people, you'll thrive in this role.

What could a typical week look like?

No two days are the same, but you might find yourself:

- Visiting a family affected by dementia and helping them understand the support available to them.
- Delivering an information session at a community centre, faith venue or local organisation.
- Meeting community leaders and partner organisations to build local connections and increase awareness of dementia.
- Supporting a Memory Café, creating a welcoming space where people can connect, share experiences and feel less alone.
- Helping someone access services, support and activities within their local community.
- Attending community events and raising awareness of dementia across Greater Manchester.
- Building trusted relationships with people affected by dementia, their families and carers.
- Connecting people with support that helps them stay independent, informed and connected.

About you

We are looking for someone who enjoys working with people and is passionate about making a difference.

You'll be someone who:

- Enjoys meeting people and building relationships.
- Communicates confidently and compassionately with people from different backgrounds.
- Can work independently and organise their own workload.
- Enjoys variety and feels comfortable working across different locations and communities.
- Is confident engaging with community groups, partner organisations and local services.
- Wants to support people, families and carers affected by dementia.

To support the communities we work with, you'll need to be fluent in English and at least one South Asian language, such as Urdu, Punjabi, Hindi, Bangla or Gujarati.

Because this role involves supporting people and communities across Greater Manchester, you'll need to be comfortable travelling regularly throughout the area and working in different locations during the week. Knowledge of Greater Manchester communities, venues and local networks would be beneficial.

Experience of dementia isn't essential. We'll provide training and support. What matters most is your ability to build meaningful relationships, support others and work confidently within local communities.

Why join us?

Every conversation matters.Every connection matters.

The support you provide could help someone understand a diagnosis, feel less isolated, access vital support or stay connected to their community.

In return, you'll join a welcoming and supportive team, receive ongoing learning and development, and have the opportunity to make a genuine difference to people affected by dementia across Greater Manchester every day.

If you're passionate about people, communities and making a difference, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note within Alzheimer's Society, this role is known as a Dementia Adviser.

We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

Location: WWT Martin Mere, L40

We are seeking an outstanding leader to manage and drive the performance of our incredible visitor attraction and wetland nature reserve near Ormskirk, in Lancashire.

About The Role

This is a genuine opportunity to shape the site, not just run it. Reporting into WWT’s central operations leadership, you will take full responsibility for the day to day operations leading a dedicated team of more than 35 staff and 180 volunteers to deliver our financial, visitor engagement and conservation objectives for the centre, contributing to the delivery of WWT’s Wetlands are the way 2030 strategy.

WWT Martin Mere offers a unique introduction to wetland wildlife and an amazing day out where visitors can experience the spectacle of tens of thousands of ducks, geese and swans during the winter months, and in summer immerse themselves in wetlands teaming with life. Family visitors can enjoy wetland adventure play areas and Europe’s longest stretch of stepping stones.

We are looking for an inspiring leader to deliver ambitious financial, conservation and visitor engagement strategies. You will be required to develop a diverse team of staff and volunteers, attract a growing number of visitors and members, and provide them with an unforgettable experience on each and every visit.

The role includes management of the trading areas, incorporating retail and catering; oversight of the living collection, which includes birds and otters, and the nature reserve which as a Ramsar Wetland Site is of international importance; a thriving learning programme, and a growing events and engagement programme. The role requires close working with Headquarters to help implement WWT’s Wetlands are the way – 2030 strategy.

About You

You should be strong on financial and business numeracy, comfortable owning the P&L and able to deliver against ambitious and motivating targets while maintaining day-to-day performance.

You will have impeccable standards for cleanliness, health & safety and the visitor experience and a track record for building team performance and morale.

It is a busy and varied role, ideally suited to someone looking to expand their current responsibilities into a broader remit: you might currently be running multiple departments within a larger organisation, or perhaps leading a smaller attraction. Your wealth of experience and proven track record will ideally have been gained within a visitor attraction and you are now looking for your next role to be part of an organisation that has a very special place in people’s hearts.

Essential criteria:

• Educated to degree standard or equivalent
• Demonstrable and successful operations experience within a large visitor attraction or similar operation
• Demonstrable leadership skills, able to positively lead, motivate and continually develop teams and individuals, including volunteers

• Demonstrable and successful people management with experience in recruitment, training, motivation and performance management
• Demonstrable experience of development and implementation of financial management plans and commercial opportunities
• Demonstrable understanding of methods of planning work programmes and budget controls
• Experience with managing trading operations specifically catering and retail
