Help create safe, supportive spaces for people affected by someone else’s gambling, and play a key role in shaping an inclusive support service that reaches those who may otherwise struggle to access help.

If you offer experience of facilitating support groups or peer support spaces, particularly for people facing complex personal, social or health-related challenges, this is an exciting opportunity to join GamCare’s Affected Others Programme and help prevent and reduce gambling-related harm experienced by individuals affected by another person’s gambling.

The Role

As Service Officer for the Affected Others Programme, you’ll deliver online support spaces for people affected by someone else’s gambling, helping them feel heard, understood and able to access the right support. You’ll facilitate safe, non-clinical group sessions, carry out wellbeing and support needs assessments, identify and escalate any safeguarding or risk concerns, and help people connect with appropriate internal or external services where needed. The work will focus particularly on reaching groups who may face additional barriers to support, including men, young adults, neurodiverse people, LGBTQIA+ communities and people from ethnic minority backgrounds.

Alongside direct delivery, you’ll help shape and improve the service itself. Working closely with colleagues and people with lived experience, you’ll adapt content, develop accessible support journeys for users of the service, monitor participation and feedback, and use those insights to strengthen engagement and impact.

About You

You’ll bring experience of facilitating and shaping support spaces for specific groups, with the confidence to adapt resources and approaches according to the needs of the people taking part. Strong communication, organisation and project administration skills will be important, as you’ll be planning groups, managing logistics, keeping accurate records, monitoring engagement and working collaboratively with colleagues across GamCare. Experience of safeguarding principles is essential, particularly in relation to support services, peer support and co-production.

The role would suit someone who can deliver multiple support groups for diverse audiences, listen carefully to feedback and turn insight into practical service improvements. You’ll also need an understanding of health inequalities, including how they can affect people’s confidence, health literacy and the ability to seek help or advocate for themselves. A formal qualification is not essential, although training or experience in areas such as mental health, addictions, public health, health and social care, counselling, social work or peer support would be valuable.

About GamCare

Founded in 1997, GamCare is the leading provider of information, advice and support for anyone affected by gambling harms. We operate the National Gambling Helpline, provide treatment for anyone who is harmed by gambling, and create awareness about safer gambling and treatment.

Help shape how thousands of people connect with the story of the critically endangered European eel. Join us in supporting their recovery across the Thames Basin.

About the Project

The Thames Catchment Community Eels Project (TCCEP) is a multi-partner, catchment-scale initiative working to support the recovery of the critically endangered European eel. Bringing together a strong consortium of environmental and community-focused organisations, the project delivers conservation, engagement and education activity across the Thames Basin.

Currently in its Development Phase, TCCEP is designing a high-quality Delivery Phase programme running from 2027 to 2030, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. The Activity Plan sits at the heart of this application and will directly shape how communities, volunteers and schools across the region connect with rivers, wildlife and conservation for years to come.

About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to lead engagement strategy for a flagship environmental partnership. As Activity Plan and Engagement Manager, you will take the lead on developing the TCCEP Activity Plan and Volunteer Engagement Plan, bringing together partner expertise, consultation insights and consultant outputs into a coherent, inclusive and fundable plan that meets NLHF requirements.

This is not a delivery role. Your focus will be on shaping, coordinating and integrating contributions from across the partnership to create something ambitious, realistic and compelling. You will provide strategic leadership across the Engagement and Education Workstreams, working closely with delivery partners, consultants and stakeholders to ensure all activity is aligned, accessible and outcome-focused.

• Working with the Programme Manager and partners to define activities, audiences, outputs, outcomes, costs and delivery responsibilities
• Coordinating stakeholder, community, school and volunteer mapping
• Ensuring activities are inclusive, accessible and aligned with EDIB principles
• Contributing engagement and education data to Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL)
• Providing regular progress, risk and delivery updates to the Programme Manager and Steering Group

What We're Looking For

We are seeking someone who can bring together ideas, people and evidence to create a clear, compelling and fundable Activity Plan. You will be confident navigating complexity, coordinating multiple partners and synthesising diverse inputs into a coherent whole.

Essential experience and skills include:

• Experience developing strategic plans or programmes for funders
• Experience in engagement and/or education programme development
• Experience coordinating multi-partner projects
• Strong written communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple inputs and deadlines

The following would be an advantage:

• Experience of National Lottery Heritage Fund projects
• Understanding of evaluation frameworks and outcome-based design
• Knowledge of the environmental, heritage or conservation sectors
• Experience of co-design or participatory approaches

You will also need to be willing to travel across the Thames Basin and to work occasional evenings for workshops or stakeholder sessions.

About Thames Rivers Trust

Thames Rivers Trust (TRT) is a catchment-based environmental charity dedicated to improving river health and resilience across the Thames Basin. We work collaboratively with delivery partners, statutory agencies and funders to deliver nature-based solutions, support environmental data infrastructure, and increase community access to rivers and blue spaces. TRT is the host organisation for TCCEP.

Employment Terms

• Salary: £38,000 to £40,000 per annum, depending on experience
• Contract: Fixed-term to 31st May 2027, with potential extension subject to further funding
