Outreach and Engagement Practitioner

3 weeks ago

Buckinghamshire, South East England, United Kingdom GAMCARE Full time

Are you passionate about reducing the impact gambling can have on individuals and families?

Join GamCare and make a real difference raising awareness of gambling-related harms with community groups across the South East.

About us

Founded in 1997, GamCare is the provider 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.

The role

As an Outreach and Engagement Practitioner you will help individuals and families to build confidence and access the support available from our services.

One of the key priorities of Gamcare South East is to reach out to individuals, families, and communities to make it easier to talk about gambling and gambling related harms. This is done by working across the region to engage with underserved communities to ensure everyone can access information and support.

You will be responsible for building effective working partnerships with professional services through the delivery of presentations, networking and creating new referral pathways. Your role will be integral in making the service accessible.

To support this, your responsibilities will include:

  • Participation in service promotion, networking activities and events to support visibility and ongoing development of the service
  • Development and maintenance of relationships with local services and communities, providing information to support the identification of gambling harms and pathways into the service
  • Development of collaborative working relationships with external agencies, professionals and groups, and delivering presentations on gambling harms and how to support people to access the service
  • Providing advice to people affected by gambling harms

To meet the needs of the service the role might include some evenings and occasional weekends.

About you

You will be an excellent communicator (written and verbal) and have the ability to present and tailor content for a range of professional and public audiences on sensitive topics.

You will be experienced in community-based work and have the ability to work with a wide range of stakeholders, both internal and external, to champion our vision for gambling support in Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, and Oxfordshire.

If you are committed to seeing better support for local communities and you would love to be a part of an innovative and dynamic service, then we would love to hear from you

Benefits you can enjoy:

  • 33 days basic annual leave entitlement per annum 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
  • Cycle to Work Scheme
