Above all, you will be a solutions-focused self-starter with exceptional relationship-building skills, a genuine passion for our mission and the drive to help Wings for Life achieve extraordinary impact.

Men are dying too young – and it doesn’t have to be that way.
Around the world, men are facing a health crisis: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and suicide. At Movember we’re on a mission to change the face of men’s health by making it easier for men to talk, act and live longer healthier lives.
Every project, every campaign, every idea adds up to real change. You’ll be part of a purpose-fueled crew who believe making an impact and having fun should go hand in hand. Your mission is calling.
DO GOOD. Work for Movember.
Your Mo-Mission (should you choose to accept it):
Turn endurance into impact! You’ll lead and grow Movember’s established portfolio of mass participation events, creating standout experiences that inspire supporters to fundraise, return and help change the face of men’s health.
You’ll:
-
Manage third-party endurance events from contracting and participant recruitment through to event delivery and post-event analysis.
-
Create segmented and personalised supporter journeys that increase participation and fundraising income.
-
Develop retention strategies that keep event supporters connected to Movember and increase their lifetime value.
-
Plan and deliver Movember’s presence at events, ensuring supporters have a remarkable experience.
-
Deliver the UK Endurance Events strategy within agreed budgets and fundraising targets.
-
Use data and supporter insights to improve performance and identify opportunities for growth.
-
Identify new endurance event opportunities and manage a pipeline of fundraising prospects.
-
Work with marketing and communications teams to deliver multi-channel recruitment plans.
-
Maintain accurate supporter and fundraising records in Salesforce and SocialSync.
-
Produce risk assessments and emergency plans to ensure events are delivered safely and compliantly.
-
Represent Movember at events and raise awareness of our work in men’s health.
No Moustache Required - but the following are:
-
At least three years’ experience delivering endurance or mass participation fundraising events within a charity, not-for-profit or comparable fundraising environment.
-
A proven track record of achieving fundraising income targets.
-
Experience delivering endurance or third-party events from planning through to evaluation.
-
Experience developing participant stewardship or retention journeys.
-
Experience using performance data to improve fundraising results, participation or return on investment.
-
Sound knowledge of UK fundraising law and best practice.
-
Experience producing event risk assessments and emergency plans.
Not Mission Critical - but for extra bonus points:
-
Experience using Salesforce.
-
Experience using Asana.
GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for men’s health. Every bit we raise changes the face of men’s health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives.
We’re even shaping government policies on men’s health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on men’s health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve.
GOOD VIBES:
We love weekends. That’s why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub.
Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best.
GOOD CREW:
Spoiler alert: we’re a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And it’s true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo.
We offer:
-
Hybrid/Flexible working – we offer our team a split of home and office working
-
13 weeks paid Parental Leave and 6 weeks annual leave
-
Health Cash Plan – to support the costs of everyday healthcare needs (dental, optical, wellbeing)
-
An Employee Assistance Programme offering face to face counselling, plus legal and financial support
-
A fun stimulating and collaborating culture, with company events
-
Service awards after 3, 5 and 10 year
-
Committees to join – Culture team, Equity Diversity & Inclusion
-
Bike to work scheme
-
Half day Fridays for 9 months of the year
Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.
Movember is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community and workplace - a place where we can all be ourselves, and each have the equal opportunity to succeed and be recognised for our unique contribution. We value the experiences, skills and perspectives of all individuals and actively encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds. We make recruitment decisions based on applicants’ skills, experience and knowledge, ensuring all applicants are treated fairly.
