About Cancer Support UK
Cancer Support UK exists to tackle the profound sense of isolation many people experience after a cancer diagnosis. While diagnosis and treatment can have significant physical impacts, the emotional toll can be just as challenging, leaving many feeling alone at a time when connection and understanding are essential. The organisation is dedicated to ensuring that anyone affected by cancer feels supported, understood, and never alone, from diagnosis through treatment and into life beyond.
Through practical and emotional support, Cancer Support UK meets a largely unmet need. Its Cancer Kits, thoughtfully created with input from people with lived experience, provide comfort and reassurance at a critical moment, while its Cancer Coach services offer ongoing guidance to help individuals navigate life after treatment. Alongside this, the organisation works with businesses and the health sector to improve support for those affected by cancer. With millions of people in the UK living with a diagnosis, the charity's mission is clear: to reduce loneliness and ensure no one faces cancer alone.
You'll work within a small, dedicated and talented team and will play a central role in shaping how Cancer Support UK tells its story; leading the development of high-quality, impact led content that brings lived experience together to build support loyalty and increase public engagement and understanding.

- Develop and deliver a planned schedule of communications activity across all channels
- Develop and maintain a compelling library of supporter stories (written, film and imagery), ensuring appropriate permissions and coverage across key research areas
- Work with colleagues to source, craft and share stories that demonstrate impact and inspire support
- Collaborate with colleagues to translate unique insight from beneficiaries into engaging stories that demonstrate the positive impact of the services delivered by Cancer Support UK
- Work closely with the fundraising team to optimise digital communications
- Engage with and respond to the organisation's online community in a timely, supportive and professional manner
- Ensure consistent use of brand, tone and values in line with brand guidelines
- Track and analyse digital performance using tools such as Google Analytics and income reports, using insight to continuously improve effectiveness
- Report on how communications activity drives engagement, enquiries, donations and pledges
- Manage relationships with third-party agencies where required, including briefing, objectives and evaluation
- Coordinate corporate communications such as the annual review and impact report
We would love to see applications from candidates with the following skills and experience:
- Previous experience within a communications role within a charity or similar organisation
- Demonstrable experience of leading on storytelling, narrative development or content creation that has driven engagement or fundraising outcomes, with the ability to identify the emotional heart of a story and shape it appropriately for different audiences and channels
- Experience planning and delivering social media content using a structured schedule
- Experience developing e-communications to build loyalty and engagement
- Experience managing website content, ideally WordPress or similar
- Understanding of online community management and supporter engagement
- Confidence using analytics tools to measure and report on digital performance
