Learning, Events and Networks Manager
Part-time (21 hours per week)

We welcomed over 2,800 people to our events, networks and meetings in the last year, where funders in London were able to share learning, insights and best practice to increase the effectiveness of their work. But we want to do more. We have ambitions to increase the impact of our work, and need you to join us to help us to achieve this in the new role of Learning, Events and Networks Manager, leading our work to develop an engaging, inspiring and informative programme of events and network meetings that achieves real impact for funders in London.
This role is crucial to us in ensuring that learning is captured and shared, that the latest insights and developments inform the work of funders, and that action can be taken after our events. From small roundtable meetings exploring issues in-depth, through to conference events with hundreds of attendees from across our membership, you’ll be ambitious about ensuring that everyone has a positive experience and leaves with learning and ideas that they can translate into action in their own work, whilst also supporting collaborative efforts across the funding community.
You’ll get to work with our 170 member funders from across sectors, who invest in all aspects of London’s civil society and reach all communities. No two days are the same at London Funders, and nor are two events the same for us – from advice to violence affecting young people, from Barking & Dagenham to Westminster, you’ll be involved in planning events on issues and places that are as diverse as the city we love.

What the job involves
Our high performing Community Fundraising team raises funds through a range of fundraising activities such as walks, golf, treks and cycle rides as well as via organisations such as Rotary. This is in addition to a collection of charity-owned products developed in-house – known as “The Month Series”. The Month Series consists of three separate physical challenges - walking, running or cycling for people to take on throughout particular months of the year.

You’ll be part of a passionate team fighting to stop prostate cancer from being a killer.
This is a full-time role and, whilst we mainly operate via core hours throughout the week, Monday to Friday, there is a requirement for some flexibility around occasional evening and weekend work to provide administrative support when events are running, for example, responding quickly to emails and comments from our supporters on Facebook about their experiences.
What we want from you
You’ll make a positive and valuable contribution to the success of the Community Fundraising team through excellent communication skills and being proactive in supporting our event participants. You’ll have a strong eye for detail and will be able to prioritise a busy workload to ensure we are able to deliver excellent supporter care. You’ll be self-motivated, well organised and have a ‘can-do’ approach to the role.
Why work for us?
We’re here to stop prostate cancer killing men and damaging bodies and lives. We unite the brightest minds in science and healthcare and the most passionate and caring people to help men live long and live well. As the number of men diagnosed with prostate cancer continues to rise, we continue to make advances in research to focus on radical improvements in diagnosis, treatment and support so that we can build a future where lives are not limited by prostate cancer.
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.
