Charity Manager
The Noah Jordan Foundation
Location: Cornwall, UK
Salary: £35,000–£40,000 (depending on experience)
Hours: Full-time preferred (part-time may be considered)
Reporting to: Charity Director
Working closely with: Board of Trustees
Additional Requirements: Flexibility to work occasional evenings and weekends in line with events, campaigns and charity activities, with willingness and ability to travel across the UK as required.
About The Noah Jordan Foundation
The Noah Jordan Foundation is a fast-growing UK children’s charity established in memory of Noah, who died in 2024 from POLG mitochondrial disease, a rare and devastating paediatric mitochondrial disorder which can cause severe neurological deterioration and liver failure in children, and for which there is currently no effective treatment or cure.
Following Noah’s death, his family made him a promise: that his legacy would help change the future for children and families affected by mitochondrial disease.
The Foundation was established to deliver that promise through three charitable objectives:
Medical Research
Funding pioneering medical research to improve clinical management, accelerate the development of effective treatments and ultimately help drive progress towards cures for rare paediatric mitochondrial diseases, including POLG-related mitochondrial disorders.
Raising Awareness
Increasing awareness and understanding of mitochondrial disease amongst healthcare professionals, organisations and the wider public through campaigns, events, education and training.
Supporting Children and Families
Providing practical and emotional support to children and families affected by mitochondrial disease through information, resources, services and financial assistance where possible.
Since launching in September 2024, thanks to our incredible community, the Foundation has grown rapidly, raising more than £400,000 in just over 18 months.
Our Impact
The Foundation has already:
- Fully funded a three-year medical research PhD programme into POLG mitochondrial disease at the Mitochondrial Research Group (MRG) at Newcastle University, under the guidance of one of the UK’s leading Professors of Paediatric Mitochondrial Medicine, who also serves as a Charity Medical Advisor to the Foundation.
- Supported affected children, families and organisations across the UK.
- Developed national corporate partnerships and strategic relationships.
- Built a growing national supporter community and dedicated volunteer network.
- Established a growing national profile across mitochondrial disease awareness, fundraising and advocacy.
- Begun work towards funding further pioneering mitochondrial disease research and delivering long-term charitable impact.
Everything achieved so far has been built through passion, community and an unwavering commitment to creating meaningful change. Whilst we are proud of what has been achieved during our first 18 months, we believe this is only the beginning.
The Foundation is now entering an exciting and important phase of development as we strengthen long-term sustainability, diversify income, grow partnerships and build the organisational capability required to maximise impact for children and families affected by mitochondrial disease across the UK, whilst contributing towards change around the world through research, awareness and support.
We are seeking an exceptional individual to help build upon the momentum already created and shape the Foundation’s continued growth and long-term impact.
The Opportunity
This is an opportunity to help build a nationally recognised charity at an exciting and formative stage of its journey.
The Noah Jordan Foundation is building towards becoming a nationally recognised force for change within paediatric mitochondrial disease research, awareness and family support.
As the Foundation’s first full-time employee, the Charity Manager will play a key role in shaping the future culture, structure and direction of the organisation.
