Office based at London Bridge with some remote working

What the job involves

This is an excellent opportunity to join a fast-paced communications team in a varied and dynamic role. You will be responsible for developing marketing communications for Prostate Cancer UK across a range of products.

In any one day, you could be developing a communications plan to drive event sign ups, building a Facebook lead generation campaign, or setting up an email journey to inspire our customers to donate and help change the lives of men with prostate cancer.

You will approach marketing with a product mindset, making the user’s need and experience primary, and work with teams across the charity to develop communications plans that reach the right audience, with the right content, on the right channels, at the right time, to make the biggest impact with the resource available.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a proactive, enthusiastic and highly organised individual with experience in digital marketing.

You have the perfect mix of excellent writing and editing skills combined with a love of data and insightful analysis. You have experience in paid marketing campaigns, particularly on Facebook, and a good knowledge of email marketing.

Through your marketing expertise, you’re able to produce content and campaigns to engage and convert our priority audiences. And using audience insight and analytics, you’re able to continuously monitor and optimise campaigns to create the biggest impact and inspire our customers to take action in the fight against prostate cancer.

You’ll be confident at building strong working relationships and working across teams to deliver joint projects, and will have a keen eye for opportunities to innovate and expand our approaches. And you will happily use your expertise to support your team-mates as the occasion demands.

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.

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we fight for a better future for men.

What we offer

Join our team and you’ll be working at an award-winning charity that will support you to develop your skills and expertise. We’re particularly proud of our agile working arrangements which allow (as appropriate to the role) for flexibility around where and when we carry out our work to ensure we can achieve the best results for the charity, at the same time as balancing our working lives with life’s other commitments!

We also offer a competitive benefits package including generous leave entitlements, season ticket loans, a cycle to work scheme, an enhanced contributory pension scheme, life insurance and group income protection as well as a Health Cash Plan and free advice and support on pretty much anything via our Employee Assistance Programme.

Our commitment

Our teams, supporters, partners, and those living with prostate cancer, come from all walks of life. We draw upon the difference in who we are, what we’ve experienced and how we think to build a future where lives are not limited by prostate cancer. Not only is it the right thing to do, it makes our charity stronger and helps us reach more people. If you share our ambition we would love to hear from you.
