As our Database Processor Assistant, you'll use your expertise to ensure our data is accurate and accessible, and to enable colleagues across the charity to deliver the best possible experience for our supporters and people affected by pancreatic cancer.

At Pancreatic Cancer UK, data underpins everything we do – from fundraising and campaigning to delivering vital support services. Working as part of our supportive and knowledgeable Data Team, you'll collaborate with colleagues across the organisation to deliver high-quality data solutions, improve processes and help teams make informed decisions.

In this role, you'll:

• Process and import data from a range of external sources into Raiser's Edge, ensuring accuracy, efficiency and compliance with agreed processes.
• Provide day-to-day database support by responding to user queries, maintaining process documentation and helping colleagues make the most of our CRM.

About You 

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about data and keen to develop their skills while making a real difference. Whether you’ve gained experience through work, study or volunteering, you’ll bring a genuine interest in data and an understanding of the important role it plays in helping organisations make informed, data-driven decisions.

You'll be someone who enjoys working with detail, solving problems and finding better ways of doing things. You'll bring:

• A genuine interest in data and its role in supporting informed decision-making.
• Strong organisational, analytical and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail and a focus on accuracy.
• Ability to manage competing priorities, meet deadlines and work effectively in a fast-paced environment.
• A collaborative, positive approach with a willingness to learn new systems, develop technical skills and continuously improve.

If this sounds like you – we’d love to hear from you!

About working for us 

This is a fast-paced organisation that is committed to making a difference. 

Being a part of our team is being part of a thriving, positive, dynamic, successful, and welcoming community that is making an impact. We will support you and develop you should you wish this, and you get the opportunity to be involved in activities outside the scope of your immediate role. We care about your health and well-being and your work-life balance, and you will feel that your contribution is valued and matters. 

About us  

We are Pancreatic Cancer UK. We go above and beyond for everyone affected by this disease.

Right now, half of people with pancreatic cancer die within three months of diagnosis. Families are left with only hope to hold onto. They need more. So we do more.

We bring more break throughs through research, more change through campaigning and more support through our expert nurses.

We make more noise because people have gone unheard. We are relentless because the disease is ruthless. We care more because people feel forgotten.

Because people with pancreatic cancer need more than hope.

Underpinning this vision are our three values: 

• Courage
• Compassion
• Community

We cannot achieve our vision without employing people who are committed to our vision, strategy, and values. 

At Pancreatic Cancer UK (PCUK) our ambition is to create an inclusive working environment that reflects the communities and audiences that we engage with and where everyone can be their true selves, where they feel respected, championed, heard, and supported.  We want our workforce to achieve their potential, understand their contribution and feel proud of their impact by creating a culture and organisation that is genuinely inclusive by advancing equality, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through our policies and practices. 

We believe diversity drives great outcomes by encouraging the different points of view that come from a diverse workforce. We want to hear from and engage with people whose experience of dealing with this disease may be very different depending on their individual circumstances and background. We can think of no better way to do this than by making sure this role fully represents our intent; therefore, we are especially keen to consider applications from suitable applicants who consider themselves to be in areas that appear underrepresented within the charity sector.

Safeguarding

PCUK is committed to safe and fair recruitment processes that safeguard and protect those we work with, support and serve.
