Location: Putney, London/Hybrid (minimum 2-3 days on site per week)
Contract: Permanent, full time
Closing date: 5th July 2026
To apply for the role, you will need to submit your CV and also a cover letter supporting your application.
We’re looking for an IT Projects Manager to join a small, busy IT team at the UK’s leading specialist centre for complex neuro-disability. The work matters. The projects you deliver help our clinical, operational and corporate teams give better care to the people who depend on us.
You’ll own a varied portfolio of IT projects from start to finish: planning, budgets, suppliers, risk, governance and delivery. We want a project manager who can work both in the detail of a project plan one day, and shaping the bigger picture with senior leadership the next. This is a central role in a small technology team, so your judgement and the relationships you build will really count.
What you’ll bring
- A track record of delivering IT projects to time, cost and quality in a complex organisation
- Strong people skills, so you can talk to clinicians, senior leaders and suppliers and be understood by all of them
- A practical, problem-solving approach to risk, change and competing priorities
- A good understanding of IT infrastructure, software delivery and system implementations
- Useful extras: a PM qualification (APM PMQ, PMP or similar) and experience in healthcare, charity or not-for-profit settings

We expect our IT Projects Manager to use AI well, and we’d like to hear how you’d do it. In your own words, tell us where AI genuinely helps you work better: planning, tracking, reporting, managing risk. Real examples, please.
What we don’t want is a cover letter written by AI. We won’t use AI to screen applications. Every submission is read by a real person on our team, so it is worth taking the time to write a proper cover letter about your real skills, experience and the way you work.
We want to hear from you, in your own voice. If you want to make a difference, work alongside good people, and help drive change in a specialist care setting, we’d like to hear from you.
Why the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability is a great place to work:
-
Generous Annual Leave entitlement
-
Free counselling and therapy sessions and other mental wellbeing support through our partner CIC Wellbeing
-
Get involved in our free on-site wellbeing programs, including weekly yoga, and monthly pottery club (we are the UK’s only hospital with its own kiln)!
-
Draw down a percentage of your monthly wages a few weeks early to help with unexpected costs.
-
Financial support services such as low-interest loans and help with savings accounts through our partnership with London Capital Credit Union.
-
Join our wellbeing networks to connect with people in our hospital; we have a Pride network, Women’s network, and our Race Equality network. We also have heritage events to celebrate the diversity of our workforce – most recently we had a South East Asian celebration.
-
Free on-site parking (rare in London!)
-
More benefits: Cycle2Work scheme, tech purchase support scheme, Blue Light Card discounts, and more.

About CARE
CARE International is a global humanitarian organisation leading the fight to end poverty in the world’s most challenging situations. Women and girls are at the centre of our work, because we cannot overcome poverty and inequality until all people have equal rights and opportunities. We know that when a crisis erupts, women are often the first to pick up the pieces, so we work alongside women, so they have the power to make change where it’s needed most. Founded in 1945, CARE currently works in over 100 countries and last year alone reached 53.4 million people through nearly 1,500 projects.
Why work for CARE International UK?
This is a great opportunity to play a pivotal role in stewarding and shaping some of CARE International UK’s high impact corporate partnerships. You will lead on important multi-year partnerships with global brands such as GSK and Haleon, helping to deliver transformative strategic programmes related to key areas of CARE’s Vision 2030 such as community health systems strengthening and gender equality. The role offers significant scope to shape partnership direction, deepen engagement, and support the teams in-country to deliver meaningful, large-scale impact. This role offers the chance to lead, grow and innovate across these impactful partnerships, working in collaboration to drive CIUK’s impact further for women and communities at scale.
About you
You are an experienced partnerships manager with a strong track record of leading and growing high-value partnerships. Success in this role requires strong relationship management with a strategic and commercial growth mindset. You bring experience in relationship-building and stewardship, confidence in engaging with senior stakeholders and the ability to represent CARE’s work externally. You thrive in co-creating, delivering and growing impactful partnerships and seeking opportunities to drive social and business impact through win-win partnerships.
You have a good understanding of corporate partnerships, sustainability and ESG frameworks and ideally experience in international development and/or a role delivering on global community health outcomes. You are happy to work in a complex environment with a range of internal and external stakeholders, from country office, project management and communication teams to corporate commercial and sustainability leads. You feel inspired by CARE’s work and what we can achieve in partnership with companies and wider stakeholders.
About the role
This role will be responsible for managing a portfolio of high-value partnerships, including flagship collaborations with GSK and Haleon. You will focus on deepening relationships, co-creating partnership strategies, and stewarding jointly developed programmes that meet both CARE’s mission and partner objectives. The role is supported by specialists on finance, operational project management and technical delivery, so the ability to work collaboratively across diverse teams to deliver impact is essential.
