£48,905 - £58,402 per annum + benefits (salary range will increase in January)

For over a century, The King’s Fund has worked to improve people’s health and care. We tackle the thorniest questions facing our health and care system, and in turn society. We do this through our research, analysis and insight; leadership and organisational development with health and care leaders; convening and events; and partnering with others. With bold thinking for better health, we’re on a mission to inspire hope and confidence that we can create a world where everyone lives a healthy life.

Shape the Future of Innovation in Health and Care 

This is a unique opportunity to join The King’s Fund and help shape the future of innovation, digital transformation, and AI preparedness in a mission-driven organisation. 

We are looking for a talented and adaptable Project Manager to support the next phase of our Future Fund programme, a strategic initiative launched in autumn 2023 to explore how emerging technologies and new ways of working can enhance our relevance, impact, and internal capability. 

The Future Fund is central to how The King’s Fund positions itself for the future. It’s about more than technology, it’s about fostering a culture of curiosity, experimentation, and human-centred innovation across the organisation. 

About the role

As Project Manager, you will: 

• Lead the day-to-day project management of the Future Fund programme, coordinating across multiple workstreams.

• Facilitate workshops, innovation sprints, and co-creation sessions with internal and external stakeholders. 
• Work closely with our Technical Lead for AI and Automation to embed insight-led experimentation across the Fund. 
• Develop governance, reporting, and evaluation frameworks to ensure accountability and learning. 
• Help build a community of practice to support digital and AI capability across the organisation 

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguous, multi-stakeholder environments, and who brings a mix of project management expertise, creativity, and strategic thinking. 

About You:

• We’re looking for someone who: 
• Has proven experience in project management 
• Is confident working across teams and engaging diverse stakeholders 
• Brings strong organisational and communication skills 
• Is curious, collaborative, and comfortable with complexity 
• Has experience or interest in AI, digital tools, or emerging technologies.

Why join us?

The King’s Fund is an independent think tank working to improve people’s health and care in England. We combine research, policy, leadership development, and practical support to help shape a system that is compassionate, equitable, and future-ready.

This role offers the chance to be part of a programme that is helping us evolve how we work, how we lead, and how we support change across the health and care system.

Interviews plan to take place: 6 January 2026.

The Fund has an ambition to increase the diversity of our workforce and introduce careers in health and care policy to a broader range of people. We encourage applicants from all sections of the community, including those from Black and ethnic minority backgrounds, those with disabilities and from the LGBT+ community. We believe that diversity of background and experience contributes to a broader collective perspective that will improve the way we influence health and social care policy.

The Fund is committed to a hybrid working model that meets the organisation’s needs, while giving staff flexibility to choose between office and home working. Staff are expected to work a minimum of 40% from our central London office and are free to work more days from the office if they prefer.

East London Students' Union is a progressive charity that supports around 25,000 students that study at the University of East London. We are based in one of the most diverse boroughs in Europe and our membership proudly reflects the communities where we are based.

Our purpose is to support and empower our students by representing their views and providing a range of supportive services, events and activities to make university life the amazing experience it should be. Our Docklands offices, meeting rooms and reception area were fully refurbished last year. In Stratford, we opened our new sitting-around areas, reception, performance rooms and meetings room. Last January, we opened our first café, Nook, on our Docklands campus. In September, we opened a second café, Idle, in Stratford.

We're now working to build a students' union that champions their aspirations and can deliver what's needed to make a difference. We're excited about this and have invested in several new posts to give us the expertise needed. We're in the last year of our strategic plan and will be starting work on our next phase later this year.

If you are excited by the opportunity to help us do things differently, empower others and build a students' union that can better support our students, then we could have a role for you. If you can operate in environments where change is continual, challenges multi-faceted and where solutions require innovative thinking, you'll thrive here. You'll also need to be self-driven, able to operate with autonomy and be able to balance competing priorities.

As cafés manager, you'll be responsible for the management and operation of our social enterprise activity in our two cafés, including the co-ordination of supervision, staffing, cleaning, development and promotion, and delivery of excellent standards of service. Our cafés, Nook and Idle, employ almost 30 student staff, and their training and development is a key part of our social enterprise model.

You'll need to be enthusiastic about training and supporting our ever-changing team of student staff, who have a mix of catering experience - from extensive to none whatsoever - and ensuring we maintin top-quality service.

Diversity is one of the defining features of life at UEL, with over 180 nationalities represented in our student body. We are based in Newham, where more than 74% of residents are from Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities. As we grow our staff team, we are passionate about making our teams representative of the students we support and the communities we operate in. We therefore especially welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates and other candidates typically underrepresented in leadership.

For 140 years, the Forces Employment Charity has proudly supported Service leavers, veterans, and their families in building successful civilian careers. We provide veterans with life-long, life-changing support, jobs, and training opportunities, regardless of circumstances, rank, length of service, or reason for leaving.

By working for FEC, you will become part of a vibrant team living the charity’s values: Expert, Supportive, Passionate, Open and Honest, Resilient, and Collaborative.
