Giving them the information they need to make better choices about their treatment, while working to identify and target specific unmet needs in the prostate cancer ecosystem, such as racial inequality and bone metastasis.

Ready to build the campaigns that bring thousands of new supporters to the fight against prostate cancer?
At Prostate Cancer Research, we're making huge strides. Our supporter base has quadrupled in the last two years, our campaigns are making national headlines, and we have just secured board approval for a significant new investment in individual giving.
We are looking for an ambitious Individual Giving Executive to take real ownership of campaign delivery, running acquisition activity from brief to results, and building the supporter journeys that turn a first gift into a lasting relationship.
This is a hands-on delivery role with genuine scope to grow. You will not be waiting for permission to test something. We're looking for someone who wants to own campaigns, learn fast from what the data tells them, and see the direct line between their work and better outcomes for patients.
Your Mission:
• Take end-to-end ownership of individual giving acquisition campaigns across paid social, paid search, email and offline appeals.
• Design and build the welcome, impact and upgrade journeys that new regular givers experience in their first year, and beyond.

Why Join Us?
• This is a new, investment-funded role for impact, with a clear remit and visible results from day one.

• We value our people. Enjoy flexible working, private BUPA healthcare, a competitive pension, thank you staff bonus, and more.
If you're a fundraiser who thrives on delivery, wants ownership of your own campaigns, and wants to fight prostate cancer, we encourage you to apply.
Key Responsibilities
The responsibilities below reflect where the role will focus in its first year. Individual Giving is a growing team working to Agile principles, so priorities will develop over time. We would expect the postholder to support colleagues across Public Fundraising as needs change, and to shape their own areas of specialism as they grow in the role.
Campaign Delivery and Acquisition
• Take end-to-end ownership of assigned individual giving acquisition campaigns, from brief and creative development through to build, launch, optimisation and evaluation.
• Deliver lead generation activity across paid social, paid search and email, working with our digital consultants and agency partners on execution.
• Support the delivery of integrated campaigns where conversion takes place by telephone or mail, briefing our telemarketing partner, managing lead flow, and monitoring lead quality and volume.
• Deliver cash appeals across email, direct mail and digital, taking a named lead role on agreed appeals within the annual cycle.
• Test and optimise creative, audiences, landing pages and asks, maintaining a clear test log and sharing what we learn across the team.
• Monitor campaign performance against CPL, CPA, response rate and ROI targets, reporting on results and flagging where reallocating budget would improve returns.
• Contribute to the testing and rollout of new fundraising propositions as they emerge from our proposition development work.
• Track campaign spends against budget, raise purchase orders, and support reforecasting.
Supporter Journeys, Retention and Upgrade
• Design, build and implement the welcome journey for new regular givers, covering the welcome pack, thank-you contact and automated email sequence.
• Plan and deliver structured upgrade activity and other asks to regular giving and cash supporters, working with agency partners where telephone delivery is used.
• Contribute to reducing first-year attrition and increasing average gift value against agreed targets, reporting on retention by cohort and upgrade take-up and taking learnings forward.
• Work closely with the Team so that journeys are practical to deliver, with reactive supporter contact and fulfilment considered.
Cross-Sell and Collaboration
• Develop and deliver cross-sell activity that introduces supporters from one part of our fundraising to another, for example inviting campaigners, petition signers, community fundraisers and event participants to give regularly.
• Support legacy and in-memory promotion by embedding appropriate messaging within acquisition and supporter journey communications.
• Work with Agile principles in mind, planning and delivering collaboratively.
• Provide cover and support for colleagues across Public Fundraising during periods of peak activity, absence or change, and deputise for the Individual Giving Manager where required.
Data, Compliance and Ways of Working
• Maintain accurate campaign and supporter records within our CRM system (Access CRM), and brief data selections and segmentation accurately.
• Hold a good working knowledge of key aspects of data protection law including GDPR and PECR, as well as the Fundraising Code of Practice.
Skills and Competencies
Our ideal candidate would have the following:
• Demonstrable experience delivering direct marketing or individual giving campaigns end to end, within a charity, agency or comparable commercial environment.
• Hands-on experience setting up and managing campaigns in Meta Business Suite and/or Google paid advertising, and in email marketing platforms such as Mailchimp.
• Experience planning, building or contributing to supporter journeys, welcome programmes or automated email sequences.
• Comfortable working with campaign data and reporting against metrics such as CPL, CPA, response rate and ROI using tools such as Google Analytics 4 (GA4), and within Excel, and using results to make decisions.
• Strong written communication, with the ability to write and brief compelling fundraising copy that motivates and inspires.
• Experience briefing and working alongside agencies, consultants or external suppliers to deliver activity to deadlines.
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent campaigns and priorities in a busy environment, with excellent attention to detail.
• A collaborative and innovative mindset with a desire to test, learn, and work cross-functionally.
• Comfortable in a changing environment where priorities shift, and willing to take on new areas as the team's needs and your own development require.
• A strong belief in the work we do at PCR, and a demonstrable desire to improve outcomes for patients through our work in fundraising.
Desirable:
• Experience of regular giving retention, upgrade or reactivation activity.
• Experience of telemarketing or direct mail campaigns, including briefing agencies and managing data selections.
• Experience working with a CRM system, particularly Access CRM, and with donation platforms such as Fundraise Up.
• Knowledge of WordPress website optimisation and landing page build, or a strong desire to learn.
• Experience working within Agile project management frameworks.
• Ability to utilise and integrate AI tools and workflows such as Microsoft Copilot including agents to improve effectiveness, efficiency and outcomes where appropriate.

Project Coordinator – Mobile Dignity Hub, South-West England
Job description
This is a role based in the South-West of England, working across the region to deliver a new mobile refugee clinic. The Project Coordinator is responsible for setting up and running the pilot project: coordinating a rented van, a small cohort of trained volunteers, and a rolling programme of visits to areas where people seeking asylum have been dispersed. The primary services will be dependent on the availability of other services in the local area but are non-specialist advice and referrals, and the distribution of welcome packs, clothes and hygiene items. The Project Coordinator can be based anywhere across the South-West.
The mobile model exists because widening dispersal is moving people seeking asylum further from city-centre services, often to rural areas with little existing support infrastructure. Fixed premises are a poor fit for many people's reality – low incomes, limited transport, childcare, language barriers and poor health can make a city-centre appointment practically inaccessible. This project takes support to where people are, building trust through co-hosting with local organisations and the use of refugee peer supporters.
The Project Coordinator will work closely with the CEO and Back Office, collaborating on volunteers, budget management, partnerships and the development of the project. This role starts part-time (3 days per week) and is expected to increase to full-time (5 days per week) from January 2027. Extension beyond the pilot period will be based on performance and funding, and decided by mutual agreement between the Project Coordinator and the CEO.
Role specification

-
Lead the practical set-up of the pilot: sourcing and maintaining a rented van, developing a network of partners across the South-west to coordinate operations and facilitate storage

-
Oversee day-to-day delivery of non-specialist advice and referrals, and the distribution of welcome packs, clothes and hygiene items, ensuring services operate efficiently, safely and in line with organisational procedures.
-
Create and keep up to date a directory of local support services (health, legal, housing and other) so members can be referred accurately and quickly.
-
Identify and monitor the evolving needs of members and suggest new or improved ways of working to best serve the communities the project works with.
-
Identify and realise purchases needed to run and develop the project. Pay suppliers or ensure the Back Office knows when to pay.
-
Undertake any additional ad hoc tasks or responsibilities as directed by the CEO to support the effective running of the project.
Member support:
-
Assess member needs and identify local service gaps to ensure relevant and suitable support is provided.
-
Support members to access and enrol with appropriate service providers through effective referral pathways.
-
Collect monitoring and evaluation data on what and how the project is delivering, including member feedback.
Volunteers and safeguarding:
-
Recruit, welcome, train and manage a small team of volunteers, ensuring everyone is well supported and clear on how to help members within eligibility criteria.
-
Ensure all volunteers, visitors and any other relevant party understand and adhere to all safeguarding policies and procedures, including photos/media.
-
Manage safeguarding, including reporting concerns, incidents and disclosures immediately.
-
Ensure a safe environment for members, volunteers and visitors, maintaining appropriate health and safety standards on the road and at any partner venues.
Partnerships and stakeholder management:
-
Develop partnerships with local organisations across the South-West (including hosting arrangements at hubs and other venues) to build trust and extend the project's reach.
-
Maintain and nurture relationships with partners through clear, timely communication and attendance at relevant meetings.
Budget management, reporting and accountability:
-
Manage and keep to the project budget.
-
Ensure careful management of financial resources and account for all expenditure on Xero.
-
Maintain regular communication with the CEO and Back Office, responding to queries and carrying out tasks as required, including participating in regular meetings.
-
Contribute to a full evaluation of the pilot project to inform decisions about extension or expansion to other areas.

-
Eligibility to work in the UK.

-
A full, valid UK driving licence, and confidence driving a large van.
-
Willingness to travel regularly across the South-West of England and to work outside the formal hours of 9am–5pm occasionally, as the work demands.
