About the role
Every five minutes, someone, somewhere in the world is told that they have MS. There are currently 2.9 million people in the world living with MS. When you’re diagnosed with MS, in just seconds, the future that you saw for yourself and your loved ones has been shattered. A diagnosis often comes at a time when you’re in the prime of your life, when you should be planning your future, not facing a lifetime of uncertainty. Knowing you have MS can feel incredibly isolating and lonely.
Overcoming MS is here to provide hope: through lifestyle changes, backed by scientific research, a full and healthy life with MS is possible.
Could you be the person that helps us get this message of hope through to thousands of people diagnosed each year, their families and friends? Overcoming MS is at a crucial point in our strategy, where we are ready to significantly expand our reach and let everyone affected by MS know about the support that is available for them to live well. We are ready to own the lifestyle and MS space, to offer hope, positivity and choices to all, and we’re looking for the right person to drive awareness of our brand profile as well as the wider importance of healthy lifestyle and MS.
