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.

At Target Ovarian Cancer, philanthropy is absolutely central to achieving our mission to double survival from ovarian cancer, delivering around a third of our income. With strategic support from our senior leadership team, CEO and Board, this role is an opportunity to make your mark in a varied and rewarding job.

As our new Philanthropy & Partnerships Manager you will account manage a portfolio of major donors, trusts & foundations and corporates, including warm donors and new prospects. We’ve laid strong foundations, with a compelling case for support, clear propositions, a core group of committed donors and a refreshed prospect pipeline. Now we are looking for an ambitious and results-driven fundraiser to build relationships with these funders to deliver sustainable income over the long-term.

To be successful in this role, you will enjoy working with a  range of funders, from major donors to traditional foundations to brand-led corporate partners. No two days will be the same, and you will thrive on pace and finding new opportunities. You’ll enjoy real autonomy and the chance to build relationships directly with high-value supporters, making a tangible impact in a collaborative and encouraging environment. Our networks are currently underdeveloped, which means there’s a meaningful opportunity to make your mark - developing new relationships and delivering significant results.

What we’re looking for:

• A motivated, ambitious and results-driven fundraiser who is confident building high level relationships.
• A strong communicator, able to develop and deliver compelling comms in writing and verbally.
• A capable project manager with strong attention to detail, who can deliver work proactively and collaboratively.

At Target Ovarian Cancer, we’re a values-led, insight-driven organisation with a progressive, empowering culture and an experienced leadership team that champions agility and innovation. We are an ambitious charity, building on our achievements and targeting what’s important to stop ovarian cancer devastating lives - symptoms awareness, early diagnosis, better treatments and support for all. We are also investing in our future. Join us and together we'll fight for a world where everyone with ovarian cancer lives.

This is a permanent, full time role. We currently offer a hybrid-working model. This means you may usually work from your home or remote location, but are expected to attend meetings and pay for your own travel to the office in Angel, London when required. 

Please submit your application by midnight on Thursday 10th July.  The provision date for first interviews is Thursday 19th and these will be carried out on Teams.

We want to make our recruitment accessible to all, if there is a way we can support you in your application, please contact us.

Target Ovarian Cancer does not hold a sponsorship licence and therefore cannot sponsor any individual to work in the UK.

As the Trusts and Foundations Officer you will proactively research, steward and secure income from a pipeline of trusts and foundations. You'll be identifying suitable trusts and developing impactful applications, reports and stewardship assets to grow and develop relationships. We'd love you to help use creativity and innovation to engage, inspire and motivate supporters, playing a pivotal role in helping Bowel Cancer UK grow income and ensure we can continue to meet the needs of people affected by bowel cancer.

This role sits within the wider Partnerships and Philanthropy team, working directly alongside our Philanthropy Manager. You will also be supported by the Head of Partnerships and Philanthropy and our team assistants, as well as working closely with our corporate partnerships team.
