As well as our two main cycling events, Football to Amsterdam and the Grand Depart Classic, we also build big teams in events such as the Virgin Money London Marathon, Great North Run and the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100.

You will project manage a number of key third party running and cycling events, such as the Bath Half, Cardiff Half and Velo Essex. You will also be tasked with identifying new opportunities across the UK and overseas to generate income from third party events and contribute ideas to continue to grow our programme of owned events.

This will cover all aspects, including setting budgets, creating the event concepts, marketing, supporter communications, event delivery and remittance to ensure we maximise the funds raised from these events. Alongside this, you will work with other teams within Prostate Cancer UK to support the full calendar of events and take the lead with supporting our volunteers at our events.

Working with our Marketing Communications and Digital teams, you will ensure that our events are promoted successfully to the public, in line with your organisational wide strategy to stop men dying of prostate cancer.

What we want from you
You will have experience of working in a sporting events team with a background of assisting or leading with the delivery of large-scale events, covering aspects such as marketing, communications and event delivery. You’ll also have first-class communication skills to enable you to motivate and inspire for our cause. Strong organisational skills will be combined with the ability to prioritise a busy workload and work to tight deadlines.

Why work for us?
We have a simple ambition – to stop men dying from prostate cancer. Through shifting the science over the next 10 years to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment, prevention and support, we can make prostate cancer a disease the next generation of men need not fear. Be part of a team that will put an end to prostate cancer being a killer.

The support we’ll provide
Join our team and you’ll be working at an award-winning charity that will help you learn, develop your skills and expertise, and achieve your highest aspirations. We provide everything you’d expect from a professional organisation – competitive benefits package, contributory pension scheme, life insurance and a season ticket loan – but much more besides. Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we fight for a better future for men.
