OVERVIEW
We are looking for two Experts by Experience Board Advisors to join Asylum
Aid’s Board of Trustees, who have lived experience of being an asylum seeker, 
refugee or of statelessness.
The Board of Trustees is made up of individuals who have overall control and legal 
responsibility for the charity’s management and administration. All the Trustees share 
responsibility for the charity and must work according to the Articles of Association – a 
governing document which sets out the charity’s rules and responsibilities. This means that 
you will contribute, advise and make recommendations to the Board on the work and 
strategy of Asylum Aid, but as you will not be a trustee you are not responsible for the final 
decisions. 
The Asylum Aid Board of Trustees is led by the Chair, Elizabeth Mottershaw. During your 
time as a Board Advisor, you will be supported by the Chair and other members of the 
Board (including one Trustee with lived experience) to ensure that you are confident and 
comfortable in your contributions.

HOW TO APPLY
We know it can be daunting to join a Board, particularly if you haven’t done it before, so we 
want to make it as easy as possible for you to join us and participate fully in our discussions 
as a paid Expert by Experience Board Advisor. Both the Chair and the CEO are committed to 
enable this.
If you would like to apply for the role of Expert by Experience Board Advisor for Asylum Aid,
please could you write a short letter, presentation, video or audio message addressing the 
following two questions:
1. What is the main thing that interests you about applying for this role?

necessary for the application.

TIMELINE

Closing date: 10am on Monday 6th July  

Preliminary interviews (online): week commencing 13th July

Final panel interviews (in person): week commencing 20th July

ELIGIBILITY CHECKS

Since our work involves the engagement and participation of individuals with lived experience, candidates will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check if offered the role. We will also ask you for the details of two referees (if you do not have work-based references, we are happy to accept character references or references from any time spent volunteering).

Sitting within SSAFA’s Welfare Operations directorate, you will be responsible for improving our approach to data within our Casework services. This will include reviewing our processes, data capture and systems and making recommendations for improvement, where appropriate. You will also provide robust evidence to support evidenced based decision-making through your data analysis and visualisation skills. Critically, you will bring this evidence to life, demonstrating what difference we make to beneficiaries. You will have the ability to discuss complex data in a way that is engaging and easy to understand for a variety of internal and external stakeholders. 

SSAFA has recently brought together colleagues in digital and data roles across the organisation to form a taskforce with the aim of using technology to help our staff and volunteers communicate, share information and collaborate, and to develop products and services so that we can reach more of the people we support increasing our impact.  This role will have the opportunity to collaborate with these colleagues to deliver this aim with a particular focus on data and systems. Your goal will be to support a culture of continuous improvement informed by the work you do.

SSAFA’s current Strategic Plan highlights, ‘Understanding Need,’ as a core area of importance for the charity. To support our work in this area, SSAFA has recently received funding to develop an impact framework for our Casework service to demonstrate the difference we make to the Armed Forces Community.  You will form a key part of the team working to deliver this.

About the team 

SSAFA’s Welfare Operations directorate delivers direct support to our beneficiaries in the Armed Forces Community. You will be based in a team focussing on measuring the impact of this support and ensuring our senior management are provided with evidence to enable continuous improvement of our services. 

You will also collaborate with colleagues across the organisation, including IT, Fundraising and Marketing and Communications; all of whom will have an interest in your work and will use it to promote SSAFA.

About you 

You will need to be experienced in data analysis and visualisation and have led projects focussing on improving data. You will be a good communicator and be able to approach diverse teams to understand their current practices and future needs with regards to data. Bringing the beneficiary experience to life through data, you will be confident in explaining your findings to non-experts to enable them to make informed decisions. 

About SSAFA 

SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity is a trusted source of support for the Armed Forces community in their time of need. In 2023 our trained teams of volunteers and employees helped more than 53,000 people, including veterans, serving personnel (regulars and reserves) and their families.

SSAFA understands that behind every uniform is a person. And we are here for that person and their family, any time they need us and in any way, they need us. 

Diversity and Inclusion at SSAFA 

SSAFA exists to support a diverse range of beneficiaries within the armed forces community, and we believe diversity within our teams is key to ensuring we can deliver our services effectively. We thrive on differences and believe it is critical to our success as a worldwide charity. SSAFA is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace that seeks to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people from a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We therefore encourage applications from all genders, races, religions, ages and sexual orientations, as well as parents, veterans, people living with disabilities, and any other groups that could bring diverse perspectives to our business.

Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office

It’s an incredibly exciting time within partnerships at Prostate Cancer UK. In line with the charity’s ambitious 10-year fundraising strategy, partnerships are a core component in raising vital funds and awareness to help men navigate the UK’s most common cancer. With nationally recognised, award-winning partnerships as our platform, matched with a record-high brand sentiment rating, a highly prominent cause and a marketplace looking for long-term strategic partnerships, we are building the team infrastructure to maximise our strong position through the launch of two developed functions – Account Development and Business Development.

What the job involves

This is a key role focused on delivering, growing and developing some of our most important and high-profile partnerships. You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of major partners, building on strong existing relationships and turning them into long-term, strategic collaborations that deliver real impact and sustained income.

Working within our Account Development team, you’ll look beyond day-to-day delivery to unlock new opportunities. You’ll spot where partnerships can grow, whether that’s through extending existing activity, opening up new areas of collaboration or bringing fresh ideas that add value for both sides. A big part of the role is building trusted, senior-level relationships and using those connections to deepen engagement and create further opportunities.

You’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation to make sure partnerships are joined up, high quality and aligned with our wider goals. At the same time, you’ll use insight and data to shape plans, track performance and make sure partnerships continue to develop and improve over time.

Overall, this role is about managing strong partnerships and helping them go further, growing their value, strengthening relationships and turning them into something even more impactful over the long term.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a Partnership Development Manager who brings a strong track record of delivering high-quality campaigns and partnerships that drive genuine, sustained income growth. You’ll be skilled in managing and developing major partnerships, with experience of working at a high-value level in either the charity sector or a comparable commercial environment. Alongside this, you’ll bring a strategic mindset, with the ability to spot opportunities, think creatively and turn ideas into meaningful, long-term value.

Building strong relationships will come naturally to you. You’ll be comfortable engaging and influencing senior stakeholders, bringing credibility, clarity and confidence to your conversations. You’ll also have a commercially aware approach, with the ability to negotiate effectively, balance different priorities and create outcomes that work for everyone involved.

We’d be particularly interested to hear from you if you have experience managing complex, multi-year or transformational partnerships, or if you’ve worked across commercial, agency or charity settings. An understanding of brand-led, impact-driven or purpose-driven partnerships would also be valuable, helping you to shape partnerships that are both purposeful and commercially strong.

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.

How and where we work

Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.

Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.

We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.

What the job involves

As Business Development Manager (Health), you’ll direct identifying and securing high-value partnerships within the health and pharmaceutical sectors, helping to generate meaningful income and impact. This is a hands-on role where you’ll use your sector knowledge and commercial insight to build and manage a targeted pipeline, developing tailored, high-value propositions and leading opportunities from initial engagement through to agreement.

Working closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Research, Health Services, Equity and Improvement (HSEI) and the Leadership Team, you’ll turn existing relationships and networks into strong, value-aligned partnerships. You’ll take a proactive approach to stakeholder engagement, using insight and influence to create opportunities and drive new business.

You’ll be responsible for managing your pipeline effectively, tracking performance and balancing shorter-term delivery with longer-term growth. Alongside this, you’ll act as a health sector specialist within the team, bringing insight, credibility and up-to-date knowledge to strengthen our approach.

Collaboration is key, and you’ll work across teams to ensure partnerships are set up for long-term success, with smooth handovers and clear alignment. Success in the role will be measured through income secured, pipeline strength and the quality and impact of the partnerships you build.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a Business Development Manager who brings both commercial insight and a genuine passion for making a difference in the health space. You’ll have built your career in business development, sales or high-value fundraising, ideally within health or pharmaceutical settings, and will be able to point to examples where you’ve successfully secured significant partnerships or commercial agreements.

You’ll be comfortable shaping compelling, high-value funding propositions that resonate with partners, and you’ll have a strong understanding of how the health sector works in practice, including decision-making processes and the wider regulatory landscape. Just as important is your ability to build and maintain trusted relationships. You’ll feel comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders, bringing credibility, professionalism and a collaborative approach to every interaction.

We’d especially love to hear from you if you’ve worked within healthcare, life sciences or pharmaceutical organisations, or if you have experience building partnerships in a charity or purpose-led environment. An understanding of areas such as ESG, research or impact-led partnerships would also be a real advantage, particularly in helping us grow meaningful and sustainable collaborations.

Above all, you’ll be someone who combines commercial thinking with a values-driven approach, and who’s motivated by the opportunity to create partnerships that deliver real impact.
