You have experience of delivering training products and working with young people, or in a youth setting. All you need is the perfect environment to put your skills to great use. Welcome to Aquarius as a Training Practitioner.

Aquarius work closely with individuals, families and friends to lessen the impact caused by alcohol, drugs and gambling, while GamCare is the leading provider of support for anyone affected by problem gambling in Great Britain. And, right now, we’re working in partnership and looking for a self-motivated individual with a genuine interest in working with young people and making positive change in a community to join us. Your challenge? To engage young people and youth-facing professionals in your region on the topic of problem gambling and harm prevention through the promotion, arrangement and delivery of GamCare’s young people’s workshops and staff training sessions.
A great opportunity to contribute to an enthusiastic local and national team of training facilitators working across the country, you’ll need a proven background in a training related role. You’ll also need experience of promoting services, championing training programmes and engaging specific audiences. The ability to take a non-judgmental approach to gambling, problem gambling and problem gamblers is essential too, as are excellent facilitation, public speaking and presentation skills. A proven self-starter, you have a flair for developing, assessing and evaluating different project options and the presence to act as ambassador for the programme across different settings and stakeholders. A youth work or training qualification and/or an understanding of problem gambling, while useful, are not essential.
