Make a real impact for people living with rare, life-altering conditions.
Inflammatory Neuropathies UK is the only UK charity dedicated solely to supporting people impacted by Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), CIDP, MMN and other Inflammatory Neuropathies. These are rare autoimmune conditions that can dramatically change lives. We are here to work with people, to provide support, and to make things better.
We provide information, peer support, personal grants, local and online groups, and fund vital research. We are ambitious, people-focused, and growing fast. Along with our community, we are IN this together.
We are now looking for a proactive, organised and mission-driven Operations Manager to help us strengthen, streamline, and expand our core services so we can reach and support even more people.
About the role
As Operations Manager, you will be at the heart of our charity’s day-to-day running. Working closely with our Chief Executive, Trustees, staff team, and dedicated volunteers, you will lead on:

This is a varied and rewarding role for someone who enjoys improving processes, working with people, and building organisational capacity. No two days will be the same, and your work will directly help people impacted by life-changing conditions.

We want someone who is organised, can communicate well, and who can work well with our team. You will need to be driven, with a person centred approach at your core.

You could be an established manager looking for a fresh challenge, or an up and coming professional looking for their next step. We have an incredible team, and we want to build on it by bringing in the best.
Why join us?
