Nightingale Hammerson is an independent charity and a leading specialist in the care of older people. We have served the Jewish community since 1840. We have two care homes, Nightingale House in Clapham and Hammerson House in East Finchley.
Hammerson House, Wohl Campus is a modern 116 bedded home near East Finchley Tube station, with residential, nursing, dementia, respite, and palliative care services.
The home offers a warm and comfortable environment, with personalised care that centralises the needs of the residents, with on-site therapists, dieticians, and a wealth of activities for residents to enjoy.
Hammerson House has been rated as 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in its first year of operation.
The Role
Are you deeply driven to help others? Do you have the desire to do this in a creative and personal manner? Being an engagement lead may well be the job you have been looking for.
It is a human need to engage with the world and with each other in a meaningful way. But what does this engagement look like? There are as many answers to that question as there are people in the world. For those who are older and disabled it is a great challenge to maintain the relationships and activities that have supported them through life. As engagement leads at Hammerson House it is our challenge to help them do so and, taking a person centred approach, results in a wide and ever shifting variety of activities and individual interventions for our residents. We are a large and innovative organisation that is always trying to develop new ways to foster community and connect our residents with what matters to them.
We are specifically looking for a new member of the team to work with our residents living with dementia and while this does present particular challenges the rewards are also particularly high.
This is a job of tremendous variety and possibilities and requires individuals who have the energy, people skills and logistical know-how to bring the right ideas to fruition. Experience of working in care is not a necessity and we would welcome candidates with a diverse range of people-facing experiences and those with creative backgrounds. Experience of supporting people with dementia or other neurological conditions would be desirable.

Our Values:

St Cuthman’s, Whitehawk
We have established three strategic values for our next season of work together — two which express the
strengths we already have (joy and togetherness), leveraging them gladly to further our goals; and one
which we are sharpening our focus on (time) in order to make the progress we need.
Joy — Joy is a superpower, forged in perseverance, giving resilience, creating unity, keeping our eyes on
the prize and the good news of progress towards it. Joy brings courage, focus and strength. We practice
gratitude at regular opportunities and celebrate small and big wins — even in the midst of discouragement
and moments that feel like failure.
Togetherness — We understand the importance of team, diversity and positivity in order for each team
member to thrive and achieve their goals, and in order to reach our shared vision. Togetherness isn’t simply
a nice experience along the way to our victories; it is how we achieve them.
Time — our work is urgent, complicated, and full of challenge. Time can often feel against us. We are
learning to make time for what matters. This means growing in focus, boundaries, courage and kind
communication; and it results in feeling more energised, clearer-minded and greater impact.
The Trussell Trust
The Trussell Trust is a charity that works to end the need for food banks. It is founded on and shaped by
Christian principles.
Our values of dignity, justice, compassion and community, are central to all that we do and therefore
supports our aim to be an organisation where the diversity of all employees is valued. We welcome people
of all faiths and none and those that are committed to these values.
We recognise that we have under-represented groups within our workforce. As part of our commitment to
diversity and equality of opportunity we are actively encouraging applications from under-represented
groups such as returning parents or carers who are re-entering work after a career break, people who are
LGBT+, from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds, with a disability, impairment, learning difference or long-term condition, with caring responsibilities, from different nations and regions and those
with a lived experience of poverty as well as any other under-represented group in our workforce. We are
committed to ensuring the safety and protection of our employees from all forms of harm.

We’re an award-winning charity that runs local learning centres in the heart of communities where the young people we support live. Our centres provide an innovative education programme which includes practical learning support and motivational and confidence-building activities for children and young people aged 7-18. Our aim is to inspire students from the least advantaged neighbourhoods to broaden their horizons and achieve their full potential. We are currently recruiting Centre Leaders for several of our IntoUniversity learning centres.
As a Centre Leader, you will have responsibility for running your IntoUniversity centre, including managing your team, planning and delivering the programme, liaising with external stakeholders and meeting IntoUniversity’s targets for delivery. A substantial element of this role is delivering our education programme to children and young people aged 7-18, so you will need to have a genuine passion and enthusiasm for working with young people, including leading a class of 30 from the front, working with small teams of children and providing one-to-one support.
We are currently recruiting for Centre Leaders in the following locations:
- Clacton-on-Sea
- Leicester
- Middlesbrough (brand new centre)
As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative.
The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are. We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity.
If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.
