📢 We’re Hiring: Head of Community Services

We are looking for a motivated and compassionate leader to guide our Community Services across Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Newham. You’ll oversee a wide range of programmes that help older people stay active, connected, and independent.

We are looking for people who understand the community we serve and are therefore specifically looking for applicants who live in and/or have strong connections with Hackney, Tower Hamlets or Newham. Additionally, we are determined to increase the diversity of our senior team in line with our organisational EDI Objectives. For this reason, we are actively seeking candidates from the Global Majority (all non-white ethnic groups, including Black, Asian, and other groups previously labelled as "ethnic minorities" or ‘BAME’).

If you’re passionate about championing older people and helping shape services that truly make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Applications closes at 11.59pm 12th May.

This year is particularly special as Ramadan and Lent overlap. In our latest blog, we hear from two of our colleagues, Milu and Annadale, who share their experiences of observing these traditions, how they support each other at work, and some helpful tips for fasting during this time.

Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating today, and a peaceful Lent to those continuing to observe.
