About the organisation

North West Cancer Research is at the forefront of funding cutting-edge cancer research. With a proud regional heritage and a commitment to tackling cancer inequalities, they’ve recently welcomed KidsCan into the family. KidsCan will focus exclusively on childhood cancer research, offering donors and supporters a new and unique way to make a difference.

About the role

As Charity Manager, you’ll be the face and driving force behind KidsCan, leading a small but mighty team. This is more than your average fundraising role – it’s an opportunity to be involved in strategy setting, leadership and transformation.

• Lead change management as KidsCan integrates into NWCR.
• Build strong relationships with donors, researchers and stakeholders.
