Job Overview

This is a new role within our rapidly expanding charity which will be responsibility for the delivery of an externally funding three year project within our wider Age Friendly Salford Team.

The Coordinator (Living Well in Later Life) plays a central role in delivering Salford’s contribution to the Greater Manchester Live Well in Later Life (LWLL) Programme, a multi-year, cross-sector initiative supporting healthier ageing, improving social connection, addressing inequalities and embedding age-inclusive practice across the city region.

The role incorporates strategic programme responsibilities, neighbourhood-based delivery and collaborative partnership working both locally and across GM.

The postholder will coordinate activity across targeted Salford neighbourhoods (Worsley & Boothstown; Weaste, Seedley & Langworthy; East Salford; Irlam and Cadishead) and engage older adults with intersecting vulnerabilities such as chronic loneliness, long-term health conditions, digital exclusion, unpaid caring or financial insecurity, in line with LWLL priorities.

 

The postholder will facilitate local partnerships, activate community-led solutions, support the development of age-friendly Live Well Centres and Spaces and ensure robust monitoring, reporting and knowledge-sharing across the Greater Manchester LWLL community.

 

As a member of the wider Age Friendly Salford Team the post holder will share learning from the project whilst linking with the overarching Age Friendly Salford programme and supporting the wider team as and when required to establish a city wide joined up approach to living well in later life
