What the job involves
We’re looking for a Customer Experience Improvement Manager to oversee two exciting and high-impact areas of work: our Voice of Customer (VoC) programme and our organisation-wide approach to thanking and recognising supporters.
In this role, you’ll be at the heart of shaping how we listen to, understand, and act on customer feedback. You’ll evolve our VoC projects, turning insight into action to improve experiences across the organisation. You’ll also lead a strategic project to ensure our thanking approach is timely, meaningful and drives loyalty —making sure every supporter feels genuinely valued.
You’ll work across teams including Fundraising, Communications, Data Operations, Engagement Events, Customer Journeys, and Insight and Analysis to:
· Develop and embed feedback loops that drive better customer experiences and stronger income.
· Support delivery of customer research and segmentation, helping teams apply insight to their work.
· Champion the voice of the customer internally, helping colleagues understand the link between experience, loyalty and impact.
· Provide expert advice on using loyalty, engagement and satisfaction metrics to influence decisions.
This is a strategic and collaborative role, perfect for someone who thrives on cross-team working and wants to make a real difference to how we connect with and grow our supporter base.
What we want from you
We’re looking for someone who’s passionate about customer experience and knows how to turn insight into action. You’ll be a natural collaborator, confident communicator, and someone who can influence others to think differently.
The ideal candidate will bring:
· Demonstrable experience in customer experience, supporter engagement or VoC initiatives, or similar areas of work.
· Experience of designing and delivering projects that improve satisfaction, loyalty or engagement with measurable impact.
· Strong analytical skills and the ability to commission, interpret and apply insight to long-term strategy.
· Confidence in communicating complex ideas clearly to a range of audiences.
· The ability to work across teams, influencing and supporting colleagues to embed customer-led thinking.
· An active commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion and allyship.
Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.
Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.
Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.
Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.
We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.

About Kidney Research UK:
Kidney Research UK is the leading charity in the UK focused on funding research into the prevention, treatment and management of kidney disease. Our vision is the day when everyone lives free from kidney disease and for more than 60 years the research, we fund has been making an impact. But kidney disease is increasing as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and obesity, making our work more essential than ever.
At Kidney Research UK we work with clinicians and scientists across the UK, funding and facilitating research into all areas of kidney disease. We collaborate with partners across the public, private and third sectors to prevent kidney disease and drive innovation to transform treatments.
Over the last ten years we have invested more than £71 million into research. We lobby governments and decision makers to change policy and practice to ensure that the estimated 7.2 million people living with all stages of kidney disease in the UK have access to the most effective care and treatment, and to make kidney disease a priority.
Most importantly, we also work closely with patients, ensuring their voice is heard and is at the centre of everything we do, from deciding which research to invest in to how we plan our priorities and our work across the charity.
Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.
