Join our new Gambling Harms Partnership Community Prevention Worker
Are you passionate about working with communities and helping prevent harm before it reaches crisis point?
The South East Gambling Harms Partnership brings together eight Citizens Advice organisations across Berkshire and North Hampshire to deliver an exciting new programme funded by the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID).
We are looking for five Community Prevention Workers to help us raise awareness, start conversations and reduce gambling-related harm within our local communities.
The Role
This is a varied, community-facing role. You’ll be out in local communities building relationships, delivering engaging workshops and awareness activities, and helping people recognise and respond to gambling-related harm earlier.
You’ll work with a range of priority communities, including young people, minority communities, veterans and people affected by someone else’s gambling.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You don’t need previous experience in gambling harms – we’ll provide the specialist training and support you need.
What matters most is your ability to connect with people, build trusted relationships and talk about sensitive issues in an approachable and non-judgemental way.
Who are we looking for?
You may already have experience in community outreach, Citizens Advice or advice services, youth work, financial inclusion, housing, public health, mental health, social prescribing, education, substance use or the voluntary and community sector.
If you’re confident engaging with different communities, enjoy building partnerships and want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
Five roles available
- Two based at Citizens Advice Hart, covering North Hampshire

Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to be part of a brand-new public health prevention programme and help shape how it develops across Berkshire and North Hampshire.
At Citizens Advice, our people are at the heart of everything we do. You’ll join an inclusive and supportive team with a strong learning culture, where you’ll receive training and development to build your knowledge of gambling-related harm.
We value diversity and welcome applications from people with a wide range of professional, community and lived experiences.
