Not the easiest job, to work stainless like that!

In the end, I got some roofing lead and have battered it into shape.
Apart freom needing a little trimming up, it doesn't look too bad. Now
I need to make sure that it stays there on top of the post. (It will be
accessible to the public). Any suggestions as to what kind of glue
would be best?

no glue at all. Nail the side with galv roof nails or similar.

Very few glues work in regimes of vastly variable humidity. Those posts

Something rubbery and gap filling is possible, but that's about all.

Hot glue maybe.
