London / Hybrid (minimum 2 days per week in the office)
Full time (35 hours per week)
Fixed-term maternity cover

Excellent benefits including annual leave allowance starting at 27 days, pay progression scheme, flexible and hybrid working, employer pension contribution, death in service policy, personal and professional development opportunities, and Employee Assistance Programme.

Are you confident working with senior stakeholders, comfortable rolling up your sleeves, and motivated by building meaningful relationships that make a real difference?

Charity People is delighted to be partnering with the Florence Nightingale Foundation (FNF) to recruit for their next Engagement Manager.

Inspired by the work of Florence Nightingale, FNF is a UK-based charity and global influencer, supporting nurses and midwives to promote health, improve care and save lives. FNF is working across the UK and internationally to reach one million nurses and midwives by 2027 - enabling them to connect, lead and influence healthcare.

FNF's work focuses on developing nursing and midwifery leadership capacity and capability, convening and supporting nurses and midwives to shape health and care policy, and ensuring nursing and midwifery perspectives are central to decision-making.

About the role

This Engagement Manager role is a maternity cover position and forms a key part of FNF's Policy, Impact and Membership function. The role is not a like-for-like replacement; instead, it has been intentionally shaped to focus on membership engagement, relationship management and delivery, with policy activity covered elsewhere in the team.

The postholder will act as a membership account manager, responsible for recruiting, onboarding and engaging organisational members - primarily NHS Trusts and senior nursing leaders - as well as supporting the development of a new individual membership pilot.

This is a hands-on, varied role requiring confidence working with the most senior nursing leaders one moment, and responding to member queries or delivering webinars the next. You will have ownership of your work and the autonomy to shape how engagement is delivered.

Key responsibilities

• Lead on recruiting and onboarding organisational members, presenting a compelling and credible proposition to senior nursing leaders and executive stakeholders.
• Act as the primary point of contact for members, building strong, trusted relationships and ensuring members maximise the value of their engagement with FNF.
• Support the design and delivery of member engagement activity, including webinars, virtual and in-person events, roundtables and networking opportunities.
• Oversee the coordination and development of educational and engagement resources, working with subject matter experts, suppliers and internal teams.
• Play a key role in the delivery of a new individual membership pilot, helping shape how this offer is designed, tested and implemented.
• Manage end-to-end delivery of member webinars and events, including speaker liaison, logistics, facilitation and follow-up.
• Maintain accurate membership records and engagement data, using Salesforce to support reporting, insight and continuous improvement.
• Provide a high-quality, responsive service, managing a busy inbox and handling a wide range of member queries and requests.
• Work collaboratively across the organisation, contributing to a culture of continuous improvement, collaboration and shared learning.

Person specification

You will be a confident, credible and highly organised engagement professional who enjoys variety and responsibility. You are comfortable balancing strategic relationship-building with hands-on delivery.

You will likely bring:

• Experience in membership, engagement, relationship management or account management, ideally within a charity, membership body, professional association or similar environment.
• Confidence working with senior stakeholders, including executives and subject matter experts.
• Strong project coordination skills, with the ability to manage multiple activities, events or workstreams at the same time.
• Experience of delivering or supporting events, webinars or member engagement activity.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a warm, professional and adaptable style.
• Strong administrative and digital skills, including confidence using CRMs (Salesforce desirable, or the ability to learn quickly).
• A practical, proactive approach - comfortable with both high-level conversations and detailed delivery work.
• An interest in health, care, nursing or midwifery (clinical background not required; curiosity and willingness to learn are essential).

This role would suit an experienced Engagement or Membership Officer ready to step up, or a hands-on Manager who enjoys being close to delivery.
