Marie Curie is the UK’s leading end-of-life charity. We are the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all 4 nations, delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement.Our leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and our campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness, they are likely to die from.

The care and support we provide is highly valued by the people we care for and their loved ones, but at present we are only reaching around 10% of dying people at the end of life. We want a different society than the one we live in now. Our mission for the next five years is to close the gap in the number of people missing out on what they need at the end-of-life.

Help make complex health information clear, accessible and meaningful for the people who need it most.

At Marie Curie, we believe everyone deserves the best possible end-of-life experience, reflecting what matters most to them.

You’ll lead content development and review projects, translate complex evidence into clear and practical information, and help identify opportunities to expand and improve our information service.
