Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office
What the job involves
The Education Team at Prostate Cancer UK delivers high-quality education for health professionals involved in prostate cancer care, supporting their development through face to face and online engagement, regular clinical updates and collaborative work across the organisation. We also partner with teams and external stakeholders to help increase engagement and reach, ensuring healthcare professionals feel informed, connected and equipped to support men and their families.
As an Education Coordinator, you’ll play a key role in making this happen. You’ll help organise and deliver healthcare professional education events and conferences across the UK, working closely with colleagues and external partners to ensure everything runs smoothly. You’ll also provide support to our digital communications, helping to build our marketing emails, healthcare professionals webpages and social media, so our work reaches the right audience.
Alongside this, you’ll provide essential day-to-day support to the team. This includes coordinating meetings and events, managing inbox enquiries, arranging travel, handling financial processes and keeping our systems and processes up to date. You’ll also help track and report on our impact, and lead on projects like the People’s Choice Award. It’s a varied role where you’ll work flexibly across teams, contributing to meaningful work that improves care for people affected by prostate cancer.
What we want from you
We’re looking for an Education Coordinator who is highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities, using their initiative to keep work moving forward. You’ll have strong written and verbal communication skills, along with a good eye for detail to ensure accuracy and consistency across your work.
You’ll be comfortable working with systems and processes, including maintaining spreadsheets, monitoring data and supporting financial activities. Experience of using digital communication channels such as social media or email newsletters is helpful but not essential, as well as the ability to build and maintain professional working relationships with colleagues and external suppliers. You’ll be able to work collaboratively across teams and adapt to changing priorities where needed.
An interest in supporting healthcare professionals and improving outcomes for men affected by prostate cancer is important for this role. Experience in, or understanding of, the health or voluntary sector would be beneficial, but isn’t essential.
If you’d like to play a part in improving care for men affected by prostate cancer, we’d love to hear from you!
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.

Safer Recruitment
Depaul UK is committed to fair and inclusive recruitment, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.

About Depaul UK
In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.
What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.
As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.
An exciting opportunity to join our staff team and assist in providing funding that helps transform lives.
The Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners’ Royal Benevolent Society – “The Shipwrecked Mariners” for short – was founded in 1839 and operates throughout the British Isles. Our primary purpose is to provide financial help to fishermen, merchant mariners and their dependants, both retired and of working age, who are in need. The Society has over 1,200 regular beneficiaries and receives over 600 applications for assistance each year.
To help us continue to provide a great service to mariners and their families, we have an exciting opportunity for someone to join us in the role of Grants Officer.
Our grants provide practical support for individuals and families that are experiencing severe financial distress and help them stabilise their situation during times of crisis. All our grants are means tested and exclusively focussed on those on low incomes (with little or no savings). A significant number of our grants are provided to those in retirement, however we also support those who are unable to work because of accident, illness, disability, or for compassionate reasons, as well as those who struggling to find employment. Our grants are used to cover a wide range of needs but are primarily aimed at helping people maintain a reasonable and dignified standard of living.
