About Adolescent Health Study

The Adolescent Health Study (AHS) (Registered Charity Number 1213337) is an ambitious new UKRI-funded initiative to establish a prospective, longitudinal population study that will generate a globally leading open science data platform and research resource.

Trainer – Homelessness & Multiple Disadvantages
Closing Date: 31st March 2026

About Us

At Standing Together, we believe no one should live in fear, yet domestic abuse affects millions of people, often hidden in plain sight.

We don’t provide frontline services. Instead, we work behind the scenes to change the systems that too often fail survivors; from housing and health to policing, social care and beyond. As a second-tier organisation, we support and strengthen the work of others. We bring agencies together, build skills, offer expert consultancy and drive improvements in policy and practice so that people facing abuse get better, more joined-up support wherever they live.

We’re best known for developing the Coordinated Community Response (CCR) a powerful model that gets services working together to prevent harm and keep people safe. It’s now recognised across the UK and shapes everything we do. Our work is proudly feminist and anti-racist. We know abuse doesn’t exist in a vacuum; it’s linked to inequality, discrimination and injustice. That’s why we’re building a team that reflects the communities we serve, with space for diverse voices and lived experience.
We’re remote-based but closely connected through shared values, mutual respect and a deep belief in the power of system change.

We stand with survivors. We stand for justice. We stand together for change.

The Opportunity

Be part of a national team improving how services respond to domestic abuse.

We are seeking a passionate and dedicated candidate to join our Training team at Standing Together. If you are someone who shares our passion to improve the lives of some of the most vulnerable groups, then we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for an experienced trainer to come on board and lead on the delivery and development of our bespoke suite of training for frontline homelessness/rough sleeping teams and supported accommodation organisations. You will work across the Training and Multiple Disadvantage & Homelessness Teams at STADA; both of which focus on transforming the support available to survivors of domestic abuse.

We are looking for a creative, passionate and engaging person who can clearly communicate to learners the impact of domestic abuse on individuals experiencing homelessness and multiple disadvantage. The goal of this role is to support frontline workers in homelessness settings to identify and respond to domestic abuse as part of a Coordinated Community Response.

For further information about the role, please see the job description and person specification attached.
If you have any questions, or think you may be interested in this role, please contact the Senior Trainer.

We know abuse doesn’t exist in a vacuum; it’s linked to inequality, discrimination and injustice. That’s why we’re building a team that reflects the communities we serve, with space for diverse voices and lived experience.
We’re remote-based but closely connected through shared values, mutual respect and a deep belief in the power of system change.

We stand with survivors. We stand for justice. We stand together for change.

The Opportunity

Be part of a national team improving how services respond to domestic abuse.

We are seeking a passionate and dedicated candidate to join our Training team at Standing Together. If you are someone who shares our passion to improve the lives of some of the most vulnerable groups, then we would love to hear from you.

We are looking for an experienced trainer to come on board and lead on the delivery and development of our bespoke suite of training for frontline homelessness/rough sleeping teams and supported accommodation organisations. You will work across the Training and Multiple Disadvantage & Homelessness Teams at STADA; both of which focus on transforming the support available to survivors of domestic abuse.

We are looking for a creative, passionate and engaging person who can clearly communicate to learners the impact of domestic abuse on individuals experiencing homelessness and multiple disadvantage. The goal of this role is to support frontline workers in homelessness settings to identify and respond to domestic abuse as part of a Coordinated Community Response.

About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people. 

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.  Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. 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.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
