Overview
Digital Engagement Service Manager
National role | Flexible location | 37.5 hours per week
Lead the future of CGL's digital engagement
What if digital support could reach more people, remove barriers and create new pathways into treatment and recovery?
At Change Grow Live, we’re turning that ambition into action. We’re looking for an exceptional Digital Engagement Service Manager to lead our National Digital Engagement Service and shape how we deliver safe, accessible and effective support across the country.
Your opportunity
This is a strategic and operational leadership role with national influence.
Reporting to a Director, you’ll lead the development, mobilisation and performance of our digital engagement offer. You’ll bring together people, technology and insight to create consistent, recovery-focused digital and hybrid services.
You’ll lead Digital Engagement Team Leaders, strengthen national pathways and ensure safeguarding, quality and governance remain at the heart of delivery. Working with commissioners, partners and operational leaders, you’ll use data and service-user insight to improve outcomes and identify opportunities for growth.
You won’t simply manage an established model. You’ll help define what comes next.
Where you will work:
Location: This is a remote role with flexibility on where you're based. Your contractual base will be your nearest Change Grow Live office, with occasional travel across England and Scotland to connect with colleagues, support services and help drive the success of our Digital Engagement Service.
Hours: Full time, 37.5 hours per week.
Contract: Permanent.
Please note:
Full-time hours at Change Grow Live are 37.5 hours per week. For part-time roles, the salary and any associated payments will be pro rata based on contracted hours.
Where applicable, London Weighting will be determined by your contractual service base.
Interviews will take place in person on 7 September 2026 at our King's Cross offices. We kindly ask that you ensure you are available to attend on this date before submitting your application.
