Epic at a Glance:
At Epic, we strive to build a world where children and youth - no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation or place of birth - have access to a future full of promise and opportunity. We are a global foundation backing groundbreaking non-profits around the world - the changemakers and innovators that are transforming the lives of children and youth and protecting our planet for generations to come.
Groundbreaking non-profits often fall short of smart money to drive impact. Donors want to give more, but are held back because they lack trust, time, and knowledge. Epic bridges the gap between the social entrepreneurs forging solutions to today’s pressing challenges, and the individuals and businesses who want to pool their resources to drive positive change. We curate and monitor highly-vetted portfolios of organisations that we back in order to foster lasting change. We operate strictly on a pro bono basis: 100% of donations received go directly to the organizations in our portfolio.
Now in our 10th year, we have mobilised over $91 million and supported 55 organizations in 11 countries across 4 continents, since 2015.
If you're passionate about making a difference, if you're driven by purpose, and if you're ready to be a force for good in the world, then Epic Foundation is the place for you. Join us in our quest to create a more just, equitable, and compassionate world.

Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office
What the job involves
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and it’s harming too many lives. At Prostate Cancer UK, one of our top priorities is funding research that leads to real change. It’s vital we do our best to make sure this research makes a meaningful difference to men’s lives, and that’s where you come in.
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Senior Research Officer to help us deliver our funding schemes and patient and public involvement work. This role sits in the Research Funding Team and will provide us with additional support during an exciting time while we implement a new grants management system. You’ll work across all our grant funding schemes, ensuring we are following best practise in research funding.
You’ll take responsibility for a small portfolio of active research grants, providing support and guidance to the researchers leading them. You’ll be a main point of contact for grant applicants, supporting them as they apply to us and will be responsible for running peer review. Using your understanding of research funding and administration, you’ll help make sure our funding schemes run smoothly and to time. You’ll work with colleagues to support patient and public involvement in research both in our review process and through our Patient Representative Network who help researchers make sure their work is focussed on the needs of men with prostate cancer.
This role is a fixed term to cover an internal secondment for 12 months.
What we want from you
We’re looking for a Senior Research Officer who is passionate about research and has a desire to develop knowledge of prostate cancer. You’ll hold a biomedical degree (or a degree in a related subject), or with equivalent experience gained in research funding, administration or the wider research sector.
You’ll already have a good grasp of how grant funding works and, ideally, some experience of research administration and peer review. Confidence in interpreting complex scientific information is important, as you’ll be using this knowledge to find the right people to peer review the grant applications that are submitted to our schemes.
You're also an accurate record keeper with a keen eye for detail and excellent time management skills. You're assured and clear in your communication, both written and verbal, and you're able to respond to a wide range of inquiries from researchers while always adhering to data protection and confidentiality best practices. Experience of using Symplectic’s Grant Tracker would be an advantage but is not essential.
We encourage applications from candidates who may not completely fit the job description as we are fully committed to help colleagues develop and progress in their role.
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.

About King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity
King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity exists to make a real difference for patients, families, and staff across King George Hospital in Ilford and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We raise vital funds to enhance hospital environments, support staff wellbeing, and improve the quality of care and experience for our communities.
Now entering an exciting new chapter, we are transitioning into a fully independent NHS charity — with a new Board of Trustees and the freedom to define our own strategy, build new partnerships, and expand our impact. As we establish our independent structure, this is a pivotal moment to join a small, dedicated team committed to creating a lasting legacy for local people.
Our vision is to help everyone who comes through our hospitals experience exceptional care, comfort, and compassion. Everything we do is guided by our values of collaboration, integrity, and community — ensuring every pound raised translates into meaningful change for those who need it most.
About the Role
As Finance Manager, you will play a key leadership role at the heart of the charity’s transformation. Reporting to the Chief Executive, you will oversee all aspects of financial management, governance, and reporting — ensuring the charity’s financial integrity and sustainability as we move to independence and beyond.
This is a unique opportunity for a proactive and strategic finance professional who enjoys being both hands-on and high-impact. You’ll help design and implement new systems, establish strong controls, and shape the financial framework that will underpin the charity’s growth and success for years to come.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead all aspects of the charity’s financial management, from budgeting and forecasting to audit and reporting.
- Prepare monthly management accounts, cashflow statements and multi-year forecasts.
- Oversee year-end accounts and manage the audit process, ensuring full compliance with Charity SORP and HMRC requirements.
- Maintain Sage systems, streamline processes, and develop fit-for-purpose financial policies and procedures.
- Provide clear, insightful reporting to the CEO and Board of Trustees to inform strategic decisions.
- Manage restricted and unrestricted funds, fundraising income and grant reporting.
- Oversee investments and reserves in collaboration with external advisors.
- Partner with fundraising colleagues to maximise income impact and ensure financial sustainability.
- Support the charity’s transition from Trust to independence, embedding good governance and control frameworks.
What We’re Looking For
- Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) — essential.
- Solid experience in charity finance, ideally within a fundraising or grant-giving environment.
- Strong technical knowledge of charity accounting (SORP), restricted funds, and Gift Aid.
- Confident working independently in a sole finance role, with both strategic and operational responsibilities.
- Experience building or improving financial systems during periods of change.
- Excellent communication and influencing skills — able to advise trustees and non-finance colleagues alike.
- Hands-on and proactive — comfortable processing invoices one day and presenting strategy the next.
- Familiarity with Sage (or similar) and strong Excel skills.
Why Join Us
- This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a newly independent charity — one with a strong foundation, clear mission, and the ambition to make a difference every day.
- You’ll join a supportive and close-knit team working in partnership with NHS colleagues and our communities. We offer flexible hybrid working, professional development opportunities, and the chance to see the direct impact of your work across both hospitals.
- If you’re inspired by the idea of helping to build a modern, effective, and compassionate charity from the ground up — we’d love to hear from you.
