What the job involves

We’re looking for a Senior Evidence Officer to join our Data and Evidence team, who make sure our work is informed by the latest prostate cancer research. The team build and maintain our evidence base and turn complex findings into clear insight that helps drive change and improve outcomes for men.

As our Senior Evidence Officer, you’ll review and interpret clinical and scientific evidence on prostate cancer to inform Prostate Cancer UK’s positions and priorities. You’ll lead projects that ensure our strategic activity is underpinned by robust evidence, helping identify the health policy and clinical practice changes that will make the biggest difference for men.

You’ll analyse new and emerging research, making sure clinically effective advances are reflected in our strategic work. You’ll also design and lead in‑house research studies from start to finish, from developing objectives and writing protocols through to analysing and interpreting results, alongside carrying out evidence reviews to address gaps in knowledge.

Working closely with colleagues across the charity, you’ll contribute to horizon scanning so we stay informed about developments in research and clinical practice. You’ll support teams to use evidence accurately and confidently, work with policy and health influencing colleagues on technology appraisals and consultations such as NICE and SMC and respond quickly to evidence requests from across the organisation, including the media team.

If you enjoy working at the intersection of research, policy and real‑world impact, and want to use evidence to improve outcomes for men affected by prostate cancer, this role offers the chance to make a real difference.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a Senior Evidence Officer who enjoys working with evidence and using it to inform meaningful change. You’ll be confident critically appraising a wide range of evidence sources and drawing balanced conclusions about how that evidence should be used. You’ll be comfortable working with both qualitative and quantitative data, including interpreting statistical outputs from clinical trials and audits. You’ll likely have experience working at postgraduate level in health sciences, or equivalent practical experience gained through your career.

You’ll have experience designing and leading research or analysis projects that generate new evidence, and you’ll feel confident supporting others to develop sound research methods. You’ll also have a good understanding of how health services and systems work across the UK, including the data sources that support them.

You’ll be a clear and credible communicator, able to explain evidence in a way that lands with a wide range of audiences. You can move easily between writing technical research papers and creating accessible summaries for non‑specialist audiences, translating complex information into plain English. You’re comfortable working across teams, juggling different requests for evidence and responding accurately and on time.

Experience of conducting literature reviews, including rapid, semi‑systematic or full systematic reviews and broader evidence syntheses, would be a bonus.

We know that not everyone will meet every part of the criteria listed above. If you feel excited about the role and bring transferable skills or relevant experience, we’d still really like to hear from you.

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.

How and where we work

Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.

Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.

We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.

We are looking for a hands-on operator to build the engine behind how a group of membership-based incubations grow, engage and thrive. This role is employed by Purposeful Ventures and will work across two of our incubated organisations – The Baby Bank Alliance and Open Education AI (OEAI), where you will design and build their CRM, marketing, onboarding and membership engagement infrastructure.

This is a standalone role where you will be the person researching, selecting, configuring and running the systems, giving you the opportunity to really get stuck in with shaping growth infrastructure.

If you have built CRM or growth infrastructure in a commercial setting and are looking to apply that skillset to organisations achieving real social impact, this is an opportunity to own the entire membership and engagement process end-to-end – and to see the difference that it makes.

This role is about combining sharp systems thinking with practical implementation — designing the strategy and then rolling up your sleeves to make it work. You will also have:

• Real ownership — You will design and run the entire system.
• Visible impact — Your work directly influences growth and sustainability.

We are a membership organisation and we work with the sector to enable all school groups to take control of and leverage their data to inform strategic action.

Responsibilities and duties

CRM selection, setup and ownership

• Research, evaluate and procure a CRM system which is best suited to membership organisations
• Lead on the implementation and configuration of the procured CRM system
• Design all the data structures, tagging, pipelines and reporting within the CRM system and ensure that these are best designed to serve the incubations
• Ensure that all data practices are robust and GDPR compliant
• Maintain and continuously improve the CRM system, and act as the internal CRM owner

Membership onboarding and member value (OEAI)

• Map and redesign the full member journey from awareness → sign-up → onboarding → engagement → renewal
• Create clear and straightforward processes that improve member experience
• Lead membership engagement activities, including the utilisation of our community on Circle
• Create campaigns that encourage members to use the features that matter the most and which will give them maximum value
• Play a significant role in shaping the roadmap based on real customer insights
• Be the overall membership engagement owner

Community growth and communications (OEAI)

• Source and implement appropriate tools to underpin and enhance this infrastructure, for example, Zoom, sales demo tools, email platforms and automation software
• Ensure system integration across CRM, website, events, communications and finance to enable a seamless experience
• Improve on the capturing, tracking and reporting of sales leads
• Ensure the operational backbone is strong enough to support growth

Membership operations

• Run and maintain the membership database, ensuring high data quality
• Improve internal processes for tracking and reporting membership engagement
• Develop clear dashboards and insights for our leadership and board
• Design practical systems for member support and communication

Who we are looking for

You will have had previous exposure to selecting, implementing and driving use and functionality of a CRM system (such as Hubspot or Salesforce) and building customer journeys and lifecycle automation. You understand the importance of healthy data and reporting and can work independently to build and maintain impactful systems and processes.
