We're on a path to scale, aiming to become a household name while transforming a long-established industry and helping our customers prepare for, and find support after, death. But we can't do it alone, and that's why we're assembling a team of top performers to build with us. Ready to be part of something big? The Role The National Bereavement Service (NBS) is the specialist training arm supporting this mission. Our offer is growing rapidly, with long-term partnerships including Cadent Gas and Mercer Marsh, alongside a landmark 3-year research project with the University of Manchester to streamline death administration across public and private sectors. Following a period of significant growth, we are seeking an experienced and confident Training Manager to lead the development and delivery of our national bereavement training programmes. This hands-on leadership role is suited to a qualified trainer who can translate research-led insight into engaging, trauma-informed training for corporate, charity, and public sector audiences. You will help shape our national training offer through innovative programme design, delivery across key partnerships, and the ongoing strategic development of the NBS training provision. Key Responsibilities Training Design & Innovation Evidence-Based Development: Support the development of evidence-based training programmes, integrating academic insights and real-world casework insights.

Resource Creation: Develop toolkits, guidance materials, and new products that expand revenue and strengthen professional competence in bereavement support and safeguarding. Partnerships & Stakeholder Engagement Strategic Delivery: Work collaboratively to deliver training across key corporate and regulated sector partnerships. Regulatory Awareness: Maintain a good understanding of vulnerability frameworks, such as Consumer Duty (FCA/Ofgem), and apply this context to training content where relevant. National Industry Representation: Act as a primary spokesperson for NBS at partnership meetings and national industry conferences.

Proactive: Highly organised with the flexibility to travel regularly Why Join Us As part of Octopus Legacy, you'll join a values-driven organisation committed to improving how workplaces respond to grief, while supporting the wellbeing and development of our people. Our Mission Octopus Legacy is the place to plan for death and find support after loss. When people think about planning for death they think about wills, life insurance and funerals. We take these cold processes and turn them into something more human. Share more than money: leave voice notes, music, recipes. Shape a legacy that connects you while you're here. And after you're gone. Founded by Sam after his mum died suddenly, we're a group of people who work in death because we've been affected by it. We know the difference a good plan makes, and what it's like when there isn't one. Death can come between us, leaving mess, legal fees, frustration. But it can also make us stronger. We see a world where people talk openly about death, and work out the real meaning of legacy, one that connects to them. We're here to make that world happen.
