- Ensure that the proposals are designed from the user perspective - with a particular focus on victims, survivors and parish safeguarding officers
- Lead, support, encourage and manage, the programme team of approximately 6-8 people

- Equip and enable the lead bishop and Executive Chair to be effective senior sponsors and externally facing change champions, ensuring that they are fully briefed on all developments and properly supported prepared for their meetings.

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.
Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.
Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.
Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups.

This role is part of significant new investment into Oxfordshire for place-based working and will involve working with communities and key partners to help achieve lasting change in increasing activity.
About the role:

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team at Active Oxfordshire, the successful candidate will guide our strategy for our focused work in priority areas, build relationships with partners across the system and line manage the Healthy Active Neighbourhoods Manager.

About us
Welcome to Active Oxfordshire
We are a registered charity (1179040) and part of a network of 43 Active Partnerships. We work alongside partners and local communities to break down barriers to physical activity.
Through our various programmes and partnerships, more children and young people in the county can learn to swim, ride a bike and enjoy being active together with their families. Our flagship activity programmes, which include a programme for families on lower incomes and a programme for adults with long-term health conditions, now reach more than 17,000 residents each year. Supporting Oxfordshire residents in most need to be more active is helping to prevent and manage health conditions, improve mental health and well-being and connect communities. Our work changes lives every day, and this role is an exciting opportunity to further our impact in areas of highest priority.
Our purpose at Active Oxfordshire is to empower communities, unify partners and challenge Oxfordshire’s extreme health inequalities, with the overall outcome of significantly increasing activity levels to transform health and wellbeing. We do this by working with local partners across multiple sectors. We are a system partner of Sport England, and this role is part of significant new investment into Oxfordshire by Sport England through their Place Universal Offer funding.
Our recruitment principles
Underpinning our recruitment are the following 10 principles:
1) Successful applications will never be contingent on a driving license or access to a car. 25% of our current team do not drive and this has no impact on their capability to do their job.
2) Online interviews will always be available where that supports the accessibility of the process.
3) Salary transparency – we will always advertise the salary of a role, including whether it is negotiable.
4) Regular language - we try to remove jargon and industry specific language as much as possible. If anything in the below does not make sense, then please challenge us on this.
5) Applications are redacted to remove certain information, so that potential unconscious biases are reduced.
6) Candidates will always be sent any interviews questions or tasks in advance.
7) Candidates can also bring notes to interviews. We would much rather you remember all your great examples and tell us about them, than remember them on the way home.
8) We will not ask for a degree unless it is absolutely the only way that someone can become qualified or experienced to carry out a specific role. Undergraduate Degree admissions are heavily dominated by White British students (e.g. 72.6% in 2019-2020 academic year) and by specifying a degree as a requirement we narrow the opportunities of talented people who are part of the global majority.
9) We will never try to catch people out or make their life difficult in our recruitment processes but instead will be doing everything possible to create conditions where people can celebrate and demonstrate their talents.
10) Candidates will be encouraged to dress comfortably for interview. Our panel won’t be dressed in business attire, and we very seldom would be in the course of our work.
Creating diversity at Active Oxfordshire
Active Oxfordshire welcomes applications from all sections of the community and actively encourages diversity within our team. Equity, Diversity and Inclusion is a core part of our work, we actively promote inclusive recruitment principles and in late 2024 were awarded a silver award for our focus on inclusive workplaces for neurodiverse colleagues by Autistica.
We know that people from certain backgrounds can be hugely under-represented in our sector, and we want to change this and will make adaptations to our recruitment practices to enable this. We are therefore genuinely keen, and particularly interested to receive applications from people from diverse ethnic communities, from disabled people, neurodivergent people, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, people with caring responsibilities and people with experience of facing barriers to physical activity.
We want all candidates to have an equal chance to shine in this process – please let us know if there’s anything we can do to make sure the application process works for you.
Benefits: Generous holiday of 38 days pro rata per annum (including bank holidays), 10% employer contribution pension, wellbeing support, learning, development and training opportunities and cycle to work scheme

About Re-engage
Re-engage is a charity that is positive about older age and committed to reducing loneliness so that people can have social lives and friendship groups however old they are.

Re-engage is committed to growing a staff team that enjoys coming to work every day and gets satisfaction out of being part of delivering significant impact to the lives of older people.

Everyone is encouraged to get involved in working groups and staff networks, all of which contribute to us getting to know each other.

At Re-engage we are dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we’d encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

Instead of using your CV alone, we'll be asking you to answer questions to test essential skills needed for the role. The responses are then anonymised and reviewed in a random order by members of our team. This enables us to make data-driven assessments focused on someone's ability, rather than their background.

We only see summary statistics to help us check if our candidate pool is balanced and if everyone has an equal chance to get hired irrespective of their background. If you prefer, you can easily opt out of answering these questions.
We would rather AI wasn't used for your answers as we want the real you, however we do reserve the right to reject applications if we feel the use of AI has been excessive.
