What it's really like
"I enjoy working at THT because it is a leader in caring for, and supporting, people with HIV and in HIV prevention with many 'at risk' groups. Working as an HIV prevention officer in the gay men's team has given me the opportunity to play a role in the development and implementation part of some of the country's best funded, cutting-edge HIV prevention initiatives for gay men.
At the same time as developing my career I've also learnt a lot about myself. The supportive and creative environment in which I work has allowed me to develop, both as an individual and as a professional."
Will Devlin, Special Projects Officer, Gay Men’s Health Promotion Team
"The organisation is everything I hoped it would be – professional, people-centred and ambitious to improve sexual health and well-being for everyone. I come to work each morning with the anticipation of making my contribution to that ambition, and with the necessary empowerment and support to make things work."
Ailsa Spindler, Highland Services Manager
"My decision to work for the charity follows my personal conviction that investing my time and talents in fighting HIV would be time well spent. Having worked in Zambia, one of the countries hardest hit by the epidemic, I felt my contribution would be appreciated at THT. Furthermore, I love the dedication of my colleagues and the people focussed approach to work and service provision."
Jubulani Chwaula, Health Promotion Trainee, African Communities
"My post was new and involved heading out in to the community to address young people’s sexual health needs. I have built up a substantial network of agencies that I work with and the number of referrals coming in continues to increses. THT has supported my professional dveelopment in many ways, and I appreciate the flexible working arrangements that allow me to balance my commitments."
Deborah Bett, Health Promotion Specialist
"THT has given me the scope and opportunity to develop projects and develop myself. In eleven years, one thing I can say about this organisation is that I’ve never been bored. But don’t come if you don’t thrive on hard work and interesting changes!"
