At The Brain Tumour Charity, we’re here to accelerate a cure and improve life for everyone affected by brain tumours. We’re leading the way in research, support and advocacy – and we’re just getting started.
As we continue to work toward our ambitious strategic priorities, we’re looking for an exceptional leader to join us as our new Director of Services. We are looking for someone who shares our ambition, who connects with our values which are bold, collaborative, innovative and community-first. And someone who shares our deep commitment to creating real change for the brain tumour community.
This is more than a leadership role. It’s a chance to shape how care, support and information are provided to the brain tumour community, and to inform and shape faster diagnosis and care outcomes. We want to ensure that no one faces a brain tumour diagnosis alone.
About the role
Reporting directly to the CEO and sitting on our Senior Leadership Team, you’ll lead a talented team of around 20 colleagues to design, deliver, and evaluate services in collaboration with other teams within The Charity and with external partners.
We’re looking to you to lead our strategic priority for improving quality of life and quality of care for all those affected by a brain tumour. This includes:
· Tackling healthcare inequalities.
· Expanding and improving our counselling, peer support and information services.
· Equipping healthcare professionals to spot the signs and to deliver better care.
· Partnering with others to amplify the voice of our community and to drive systemic change.
You’ll be responsible for strategy and leadership oversight, budget oversight, safeguarding leadership, and service evaluation, ensuring our work is grounded in evidence, shaped by lived experience, and built for impact.
Who we’re looking for
We’re seeking a strategic, values-led leader who is ready to step into one of the most meaningful roles in the sector. Your professional background may stem from health, charity, or wider social impact; what matters most is your belief in the power of people and communities to shape and deliver change, your commitment to equity, and your readiness to lead with compassion, clarity, and courage.
You’ll bring:
· Proven experience designing, delivering and evaluating impactful services – ideally in a health, care, or social impact context.
· A deep understanding of the communities you serve, and a track record of collaborating with others to reduce inequity and increase access.
· Strategic confidence – from service transformation to budget ownership and cross-functional planning.
· A creative and inclusive leadership style, grounded in empathy, clarity and purpose.
· A commitment to equity, co-creation and continuous improvement, and a personal motivation to make a difference.
Whether you’re already a Director or a high-performing Head of/Assistant Director looking for the next step, we’d love to hear from you.
Why join us?
This is a rare opportunity to lead change at scale, joining a bold, inclusive and emotionally intelligent charity at a pivotal moment in its journey.
We offer hybrid and flexible working options; a strong commitment to wellbeing, inclusion and learning; and the chance to be part of an organisation that listens deeply to the people it serves and acts with courage.
You’ll be joining a team connected by a shared purpose – to do more, for more people, faster – and supported to lead with authenticity and heart.
The Brain Tumour Charity is the world’s leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally.

We’re thrilled to announce four exciting opportunities to join the dynamic Evidence & Impact team at MSI Reproductive Choices! We’re looking for talented, driven individuals who are passionate about sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), and who thrive on data, evidence generation, and impact communication. This is a chance to help shape how we measure and disseminate the real-world impact of our work — not from the sidelines, but by rolling up your sleeves and diving in. If you're a bold thinker who loves turning complex data into compelling stories, thrives in fast-evolving environments, and is excited about helping build a future-focused, resilient team, we want to hear from you. You’ll be part of a team that champions innovative research and drives sector-shaping insights — with the chance to become a thought leader and influencer in the global SRHR space. Come push boundaries with us and help drive meaningful change around the world.
Why This Matters
In a world where 218 million women lack access to contraception, evidence isn't just academic—it's life-changing. Your work will directly influence: Delivering of lifechanging services to millions of women; $2+ billion in annual global SRHR investments that transforms healthcare delivery across 36 countries
The Opportunity
We are recruiting roles to spearhead different dimensions of our evidence ecosystem. Whether you are inside or outside SRH, or from health economics, development research, tech analytics, or academic evaluation, we want people who are driven by impact and excel at translating complex data into compelling action. If that matters to you, then we want you.
About MSI
MSI Reproductive Choices is one of the world’s leading providers of sexual and reproductive healthcare. We believe that everyone should have the right to choose. From contraception to safe abortion and life-saving post-abortion care, we are committed to delivering compassionate, affordable, high-quality services for all.
Today, our organisation has almost 9,000 team members working in 36 countries across the world.

As a social business, we focus on sustainable delivery, efficiency, and funding models that are built to last, so that the women and girls we serve today will have a choice in the future too.
We know that access to reproductive choice is life changing. For some, it can mean the ability to complete an education or start a career. For others, it means being able to look after the family they already have. For everyone, it means the freedom to decide their own future, creating a fairer, more equal world.
