Help shape high-quality gambling treatment services at a time of growth and change.
This is an exciting opportunity to lead high-quality gambling treatment services across GamCare’s South region, covering Greater London and the South East.
As Treatment Service Manager, you will provide strategic and operational leadership across a defined service footprint, ensuring services are safe, effective, well governed and focused on improving outcomes for people affected by gambling harms.
You will lead Team Leaders and multidisciplinary teams to deliver clear and consistent treatment pathways, from assessment and allocation through to intervention and aftercare. You will also oversee performance, safeguarding, quality, budgets and contractual outcomes, using data, feedback and lived experience to drive continuous improvement.
A key part of the role will be building strong relationships with commissioners, funders, NHS services, local authorities, VCSE partners and other stakeholders. You will help strengthen referral pathways, improve service integration and build confidence in gambling treatment services across a complex and changing external environment.
About you
We are looking for an experienced service leader with a strong background in health, social care, VCSE, addiction, mental health, substance misuse or another relevant complex needs environment. You will have experience managing multidisciplinary teams, delivering against performance and quality standards, and working within commissioned or partnership-based services.
You will be a confident people manager, able to support and develop Team Leaders while maintaining safe, effective and well-led services. You will bring a sound understanding of safeguarding, governance and risk, along with the ability to use data and insight to inform decisions and improve delivery.
Just as importantly, you will be an excellent communicator and relationship-builder, able to influence across systems and work collaboratively with internal and external partners. Experience of gambling harms is welcome but not essential; what matters most is your ability to lead services, build trust and help shape support that makes a real difference.
Working at GamCare
Founded in 1997, GamCare is one of the leading providers 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, create awareness about safer gambling and treatment, and encourage an effective approach to safer gambling within the gambling industry.
Staff Benefits we can offer you:
- 33 days basic annual leave entitlement per annum (pro-rated for part-time colleagues) including bank holidays which increases with service.
- A generous Pension Scheme - we contribute 6% and you contribute 2%.
- Discretionary company sick pay from day one of service.
- Employee Assistance Programme – 24-hour support
Closing date for applications: Wednesday 22nd July 2026 at 23:59.
Interviews will be up to a 2-part process, held in person, from the 27th of July 2026 - details to be confirmed with candidates.
GamCare is committed to offering the best support to people affected by gambling harms, as such we welcome applications from candidates with lived experience.
