Men are dying too young – and it doesn’t have to be that way. 

Around the world, men are facing a health crisis: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and suicide. At Movember we’re on a mission to change the face of men’s health by making it easier for men to talk, act and live longer healthier lives.

Every project, every campaign, every idea adds up to real change. You’ll be part of a purpose-fueled crew who believe making an impact and having fun should go hand in hand. Your mission is calling. 

DO GOOD. Work for Movember.

Your Mo-Mission (should you choose to accept it):
As our Events & Office Manager, you'll lead the delivery of Movember UK's events program while ensuring our London office runs smoothly and effectively. From fundraising events and stakeholder activations to workplace experience and operations, you'll play a key role in helping us change the face of men's health.

• Lead the planning and delivery of Movember UK's annual events program, including fundraising, awareness and stakeholder events.

• Manage events end-to-end, from briefing and budgeting through to delivery and post-event evaluation.

• Source and manage venues, suppliers, catering, AV and event logistics.

• Build guest lists, coordinate invitations and ensure the right stakeholders are engaged.

• Manage event budgets, track expenditure and report on outcomes.

• Oversee the day-to-day running of the London office and provide leadership to the Events & Office Executive.

• Manage office suppliers, facilities, maintenance and workplace services.

• Support onboarding, offboarding and staff experience initiatives.

• Maintain office budgets, health & safety compliance and workplace standards.

• Support operational projects and provide assistance to the Country Director and leadership team as required.

• A minimum of 5 years' experience delivering events end-to-end across fundraising, corporate, community, charity or commercial environments.

• Proven experience managing event budgets, suppliers, venues and logistics simultaneously.

• Experience delivering events for a range of audiences, from small stakeholder gatherings through to large-scale activations.

• Experience developing event plans, run sheets, risk assessments and post-event reporting.

• Experience managing or mentoring a direct report.

• Experience securing or managing event sponsorships.

• Experience using Salesforce or another CRM platform.

• Knowledge of health & safety requirements relating to events and office environments.

• We will review applications as they are received and encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible. This advertisement will close once we have received a sufficient number of applications. To apply, simply submit your CV. No cover letter is required.

GOOD CAUSE:

Working for Movember, you’ll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for men’s health. Every bit we raise changes the face of men’s health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives. 

We’re even shaping government policies on men’s health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on men’s health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve.

GOOD VIBES:

We love weekends. That’s why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub.

Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best.

GOOD CREW:

Spoiler alert: we’re a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And it’s true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo.

We offer:

• Hybrid/Flexible working – we offer our team a split of home and office working

• 13 weeks paid Parental Leave and 6 weeks annual leave

• Health Cash Plan – to support the costs of everyday healthcare needs (dental, optical, wellbeing)

• An Employee Assistance Programme offering face to face counselling, plus legal and financial support

• A fun stimulating and collaborating culture, with company events

• Service awards after 3, 5 and 10 year

• Committees to join – Culture team, Equity Diversity & Inclusion

• Bike to work scheme

• Half day Fridays for 9 months of the year

Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.

Movember is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community and workplace - a place where we can all be ourselves, and each have the equal opportunity to succeed and be recognised for our unique contribution. We value the experiences, skills and perspectives of all individuals and actively encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds. We make recruitment decisions based on applicants’ skills, experience and knowledge, ensuring all applicants are treated fairly.

Safer Recruitment

If a role requires it under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975, we will carry out the appropriate Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) check.

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.
