Registered Charity No 1013060

Following the Brexit vote, international trade has become one of the government’s top priorities, and has received a huge amount of public and media interest. The UK has a unique opportunity to develop trade policy which responds to key policy priorities such as tackling climate change, responding to and recovering from the Covid pandemic, and delivering on the UK’s international commitments such as the Sustainable Development Goals. However, the government’s proposed trade deals could undermine action in these areas. To date there is no clear strategy to ensure that trade deals are aligned with the UK’s other policy objectives, instead the Government’s primary objective has been to deliver as many new trade agreements as possible. 

The Senior Researcher’s role is to ensure TJM has timely, in depth analysis of trade negotiations, agreements, legislation and other relevant Government policy to support our role as a source of intelligence for other civil society organisations and our work in parliament and with the media: 

• Develop a strategy to ensure TJM is able to analyse trade deals and any information about negotiations or policies coming from the Government;

• Undertake analysis, usually with a quick turnaround time, of trade agreements, updates on negotiations and other relevant Government documents;

• Occasionally commission and manage external contractors to deliver analysis; 

• Produce regular reports and briefings for the TJM secretariat and other organisational partners;

• Develop and maintain good relationships with civil service departments, particularly DIT but also the Cabinet Office, BEIS, DIT and Defra with a view to ensuring TJM has access to as much useful information as possible.

Working with a small team, you will need both a strong ability to manage your own time and work plan, occasionally manage external consultants and to be proactive in developing relevant external relationships. This is an exciting opportunity to make a big impact as the UK develops its independent trade policy.

The role

This is a varied role which operates at the heart of Breast Cancer Now’s Fundraising and Marketing Department and liaises with all parts of the charity. Key aspects of the role include acting as the first point of contact for enquiries, processing donations and writing letters of thanks, maintaining accurate supporter records and supporting the wider Department with internal queries. The successful candidate will join a friendly and welcoming team, committed to providing an excellent experience to our supporters.

About you

The ideal candidate will have excellent communication skills and a passion for providing a high level of customer service as well as great organisational skills and flexibility to manage a varied workload in a fast-paced working environment. They will have a strong eye for detail and a proven ability to monitor and record information accurately on a CRM database. Previous experience of working within a fundraising environment is desirable but not essential.

About us

We’re Breast Cancer Now, the charity that’s steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We’re here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future.

We’re that trusted friend that people affected by breast cancer turn to for caring support when they need it most. The expert authority on breast cancer research who is making breakthroughs and driving forward progress. And a vehicle for change, acting now to make sure anyone affected by breast cancer gets the best possible treatment and care.

We believe that we can change the future of breast cancer and make sure that, by 2050, everyone diagnosed with the disease lives – and is supported to live well. But we need to act now.

Although the role is based in our London office, we are following a blended approach between office and home working with a minimum or two days per week in the office for full-time staff members. Should you have any queries with regards to this please contact us in the first instance.

Breast Cancer Now is an inclusive employer committed to developing a diverse workforce.
