About the role

The Learning Officer plays a key role in making sure evidence on how our homes and communities can become better places to age in is spread across the UK.

This role primarily works with the UK Network of Age-friendly Communities, a network of over 110 communities, led mostly by local authorities, VCSE organisations. This network is part of a global movement and is affiliated to the World Health Organisation.

You will be working with the Network and Learning Manager to inspire, connect and support network members, using a range of engaging methods including: 

  • Creating resources such as blogs, case studies, toolkits, etc 
  • The design and delivery of training, events, and workshops 
  • Facilitating connection and exchange between members

This is hand-on role will involve delivering key learning activities and managing your own workload, whilst also being responsive to support network members. The role ensures our support for the Network is high-quality and inclusive of a diverse range of experience and expertise, from within the Network and beyond. 

About you

The successful candidate will be experienced in and passionate about having an impact through helping people learn and feel connected to others working towards the same goals. An excellent facilitator and written communicator, you will have an eye for detail and be able to easily summarise and share information so that others can learn from it. 

You will be flexible and organised, joining a small and committed team, which is supporting a growing, and highly regarded network on an issue of national and global importance. 

You will also be passionate about equity and tackling the inequalities that prevent people from having a great later life. 

About us

The Centre for Ageing Better is a charitable foundation funded by The National Lottery Community Fund (NLCF) and part of the government’s What Works Network. We are fortunate to have monies remaining from our endowment from the NLCF to fully fund us until 2029, and we will be looking for new funding opportunities to sustain activity beyond 2029.

Everyone has the right to a good life as they get older, and our whole society benefits when people are able to age well. But far too many people face huge barriers, and as a result are living in bad housing, dealing with poverty and poor health and made to feel invisible in their communities and society.

The Centre for Ageing Better is an independent centre of excellence on ageing and demographic change. We work with national and local government, industries, businesses and community organisations to improve how people experience ageing. Our work focuses on creating better workplaces, homes and communities, while tackling ageism and addressing inequality in later life.

 We are striving to create an organisation that reflects our society and the communities we serve with a workplace where everyone feels empowered and where diversity of background and thought is celebrated. We know there is more work to be done and are committed to continuing to improve our practice around Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion.

We very much welcome applications from minority groups and those underrepresented in our workforce. This especially includes people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, LGBT+ people, and Disabled people. 

We are a Positive Action employer, therefore in recruitment where two candidates are ‘as qualified as’ each other, we will favour a candidate from any group identified as currently underrepresented in our team based on protected characteristics as outlined in the Equality Act 2010.
