About The Role

At Alzheimer’s Society, we believe no one should face dementia alone. Every conversation, every visit and every small moment of reassurance can make a real difference.

We're looking for a warm, thoughtful and organised Dementia Navigator to join our supportive team in Bristol, working 21 hours per week..

If you're passionate about supporting people and making a real difference in your community, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a community-based role, so you'll regularly travel across Bristol area to meet people in their homes, community venues and partner locations. As such, the ability to travel independently across the area is essential.

As a Dementia Navigator, you'll take a person-centred approach to help people understand their diagnosis, navigate health and social care services, access local support and feel more in control of their lives. You'll build trusted relationships with individuals, families and professionals, ensuring people receive the right support at the right time.

You will be part of a proactive, caring and supportive local team who work in a fully integrated partnership with NHS colleagues, supporting people from point of diagnosis through to end of life. Together, you'll share ideas, reflect on practice and support one another, with opportunities to grow your knowledge of dementia alongside your manager and colleagues. We provide training and ongoing support, so previous experience in a dementia support role isn't required.

About you

We're looking for someone who is passionate about supporting people and making a real difference.

You'll have:

An understanding of dementia, personal experience of supporting someone affected by dementia, or a willingness to learn about the experiences of people living with dementia and those who care for them.
Experience providing information, guidance, advice or emotional support. This could be gained through health, social care, community, voluntary, customer service, education, housing, retail, hospitality or other people-focused roles.
Experience of assessing people's needs and providing person-centred support, or an ability to demonstrate these skills through transferable experience.
Communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to adapt your approach to different audiences.
Organisational skills and the ability to manage your own workload effectively.
Experience of maintaining accurate records and using IT systems confidently, including Microsoft Office and databases.
An understanding of confidentiality, safeguarding and professional boundaries.
A commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, ensuring everyone can access support that meets their individual needs.

Please don’t be put off from applying if you don’t meet every single requirement listed. We recognise the value of transferable skills, lived experience and potential. Whether your experience comes from work, volunteering, supporting someone affected by dementia, or you're studying and looking for your first professional role, we'd love to hear from you. We're keen to hear from people who can demonstrate compassion, capability and a willingness to learn.

Key Responsibilities:

Providing tailored information, advice and emotional support to people affected by dementia.
Managing your own caseload and developing personalised support plans that respond to changing needs.
Working closely with GPs, memory clinics, health and social care professionals and voluntary sector partners to ensure coordinated support.
Signposting and referring people to appropriate local and national services.
Keeping accurate and confidential case records using our internal systems.
Building relationships with community organisations to improve access to services, particularly for underrepresented and marginalised communities.
Identifying opportunities for people affected by dementia to influence services, take part in research or become involved in the work of Alzheimer's Society.
Promoting safeguarding, inclusion and best practice in everything you do.

About You

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 groundbreaking 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 values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure 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 here 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.

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply. Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

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 Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

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.

You can also visit our Working for Us pages, which give you more information about what it's like to be an employee at the Society.
