Role Profile

This is an opportunity to join an established charity with an excellent local reputation as both a trusted partner and a great place to work. This newly created and strategically important role will lead the design, implementation and delivery of a new Gambling Harms Prevention programme across North Lincolnshire.

This is a prevention-focused role, responsible for coordinating and delivering a local approach to addressing gambling harms in partnership with the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) sector, statutory organisations and local communities.

The Gambling Harms Prevention Lead will drive the education, awareness, partnership development and lived experience elements of the programme, helping to ensure gambling harms are identified earlier, understood more widely, and addressed through coordinated preventative action.

The postholder will lead on building capability across the VCFSE sector and frontline workforce, strengthening referral pathways, reducing stigma, and embedding consistent approaches to the early identification and prevention of gambling-related harms. They will also ensure that lived experience is central to delivery, shaping how services are designed, communicated and continuously improved.

This role combines strategic leadership with hands-on delivery and requires strong partnership working, programme management and influencing skills, alongside practical experience in areas such as training, facilitation, communications and evaluation.

The Gambling Harms Prevention Lead will play an important role in supporting wider public health priorities, including reducing inequalities, strengthening community-based support, and helping to shift services towards earlier intervention and prevention.

We are an open, supportive and progressive employer that recognises people bring a wide range of transferable skills, experiences and perspectives. While experience in gambling harms or related sectors would be valuable, we are also keen to hear from candidates who may have less direct experience but can demonstrate the values, potential, relationship-building skills and commitment needed to succeed in the role. Based on a candidate's experience we may appoint at the lower end of the salary scale, with support and development provided to help build knowledge and confidence within the post.

As an organisation, we are committed to developing modern and flexible ways of working that support both wellbeing and high performance. We operate a 4 Day Working Week model, enabling staff to work 80% of contracted hours while maintaining 100% pay and 100% productivity expectations. Following successful completion of probation, the successful candidate will be eligible to opt into the scheme, subject to organisational requirements and performance standards. We believe this approach supports a healthier, more sustainable working environment while continuing to deliver high-quality services for local people.

Location: Scunthorpe Central, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire. This is a hybrid role and the successful candidate will be able to work between home, community venues and the office.
