About The Role

Practice Implementation Specialist

Closing Date: 28th April
Interviews: 14th & 16th May
Contract: This is a 12-month fixed-term, part-time position, working 21 hours per week, with a pro-rated salary.
Salary: £34,594 to £38,438 (actual).

Application Process: Please ensure you apply with your most updated CV and a supporting statement on why you believe you would be the most suitable individual for this position.

To meet the many challenges of dementia, at Alzheimer’s Society, we are constantly evolving how we deliver support. Our new Practice Implementation Specialist will play a vital role in making this ambition a reality.

Working across our Practice and Compliance team within the Dementia Support and Partnerships directorate, you will ensure our dementia practitioners are fully supported in adopting new service models. You’ll achieve this through the development of tailored learning resources, quality tools, and insightful measures that support best practices.

This is an exciting time to join Alzheimer’s Society as we adapt to and shape the changing landscape of dementia treatment, care and support. Be part of that change and join us.

In this role, you will:

• Proactively network and horizon-scan to stay informed on developments in dementia practice.
• Think strategically about how new models of support impact practitioner learning, development, and delivery.
• Lead on cross-organisational projects and key initiatives that cut across teams.
• Analyse data, draft clear reports, and prepare robust business cases to support improvements.
• Provide support and deputise for the Head of Knowledge & Learning and Head of Quality & Insight when required.

About You

This is a senior-level role that calls for a confident self-starter and someone who can work independently to a clear brief, think strategically, and build strong relationships across teams and functions.

You will:

• Bring experience from a health or social care setting, ideally supporting vulnerable adults.
• Have a strong understanding of practice models and how these are applied to deliver high-quality support.
• Be skilled at leading and coordinating cross-organisational projects involving a range of internal and external stakeholders.
• Be a clear, confident communicator with the ability to influence and engage others effectively.

About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer’s Society, we’re the UK’s leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding ground-breaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we’re working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives. Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging is essential in ensuring that the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer’s Society.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups, help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with. Due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a DBS check at the relevant level.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition, and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work-life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
