We are an evidence-led, worker-driven organisation with strong governance and a growing track record of policy impact. We're building a movement of people who welcome all workers, working towards a world where we are all safe, valued and respected at work — no matter our job or nationality.

● Build and maintain funder relationships, including stewardship, reporting deadlines and site visits.
● Maintain the funder pipeline, income tracking and forecasting, and provide regular financial reporting to the Executive Director.
● Ensure fundraising activity complies with charity governance, fundraising regulation and data protection requirements.
Communications (strategic oversight and delegated delivery)
● Set the strategic direction for WSC's communications, ensuring it amplifies the voices of migrant workers and supports movement-building, policy influence and fundraising goals.
● Develop streams of work specifically targeting Scottish Government pledges on areas including fair work, human trafficking, migrant integration, housing and poverty, working with policy colleagues to shape public messaging.
● Provide direction, editorial oversight and quality assurance for content produced by the Senior Communications and Movement Building Officer, including the website, social media, press, newsletters and campaign materials.
● Act as WSC's senior media contact, and through the Senior Communications and Movement Building Officer ensure appropriate relationships are built with journalists to secure profile-raising opportunities on migrant worker rights, fair work and labour exploitation.
● Ensure consistent brand, tone of voice and values-led, worker-centred storytelling across all communications channels.
● Oversee communications that support fundraising campaigns, donor communications and public engagement.

● Line manage the Senior Communications and Movement Building Officer, including regular supervision, goal-setting and professional development.
● Support the Senior Communications and Movement Building Officer to deliver day-to-day content, campaigns and movement-building communications activity in line with agreed strategy.

Prostate Cancer Research (PCR) is a research and patient engagement organisation dedicated to creating a future where prostate cancer no longer threatens lives. Through research, innovation, policy & advocacy, and patient empowerment, we work to accelerate breakthroughs in prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care, while ensuring that the benefits of progress reach every community affected by the disease. Our goal is simple: to detect prostate cancer earlier, improve outcomes, reduce inequalities and transform the future of care for all men affected by prostate cancer.
About the role:
It’s been a very successful few years for PCR's Events & Community team with good results across the board, increasing income by over £1 million every year since 2023. And we recently won Fundraising Charity of the Year at the National Fundraising Awards 2026!
Now’s an exciting time to join us as we work on a new multi-year strategy and expand the team yet again, bringing in new resource to give the different activity areas space to grow and ensure we can do our best work – contributing to PCR’s lifesaving mission, developing our careers and enjoying work within an ambitious and supportive environment.
This role is new, created to focus on community fundraising which is a growing area with huge potential for PCR. We currently receive significant unsolicited income from our brilliant supporters, but there is a key opportunity to take a more proactive approach to recruiting new community fundraisers, improving their supporter experience and testing new offerings & products. You will work with the team to create and deliver a plan for this new proactive approach and will lead on day-to-day relationship management with fundraisers.
You will also lead the project management and delivery of some community-focused fundraising events. For example,our annual Snowdonia for Science event or testing new PCR-owned products which work for a community fundraising audience. We currently expect the split of time to be roughly 75% on community fundraising and 25% on events, but the two areas will be closely connected, and this split may change over time. We are excited to work with you to develop the direction of this role as the team and portfolio grows.
You will report to the Head of Events & Community and work closely with the whole team, as well as colleagues across PCR. Most of the Events team try to work together once a week when possible at our London office (Chancery Lane) but we have flexible working arrangements, so you can choose to be office based or hybrid. You would be needed to travel to regular supporter events across the UK (many of which are currently in the London/ SE England area) and to some team days in London on an ad-hoc basis.
Key Responsibilities
At PCR, we make team members’ development a key priority and there is always a % of time available to collaborate more widely for your development and interest. However, your main focus will initially be:
Project management and income growth

- Design and deliver ambitious fundraising budgets for your area which contribute net income towards PCR’s mission.
- Lead the project management and delivery of the community fundraising and events activities you are responsible for.
- This will include monitoring objectives, budgets and the bigger picture to ensure opportunities are seized & risks are minimised.
- Carry out supporter data and income processing tasks as required, including on the CRM and other internal systems.
- Work with the team to create and deliver effective marketing plans which meet recruitment targets.
- Analyse results based on KPIs & supporter feedback, proactively implementing changes & improvements.
- Ensure your fundraising activities are delivered in line with fundraising law & regulations, and with PCR’s policies.
Stewardship and relationship management
- Lead on the delivery of a great supporter experience for community fundraisers in line with our Public Fundraising manifesto, motivating fundraisers to raise more and remain loyal supporters of PCR.
- Interact with supporters via a range of communication channels and in-person, attending events and presenting about PCR’s work when required. This will include travel, for which TOIL will be given and reasonable expenses covered.
- Lead on relationship management for your area, spotting potential for fundraisers to have a greater impact with PCR as a whole, and working with colleagues in Philanthropy, Partnerships, Patient Projects & across the organisation to achieve this.
- Carry out stewardship tasks using tools like Mailchimp, GivePanel and JustGiving, for which training will be provided.
- Oversee stock management via our fulfilment house and ensure we have high-quality fundraising merchandise.
Product development and innovation
- Seize new opportunities for products, journeys or events which would engage a community fundraising audience, taking a test & learn approach. For this, there will be realistic budgets & an understanding of the investment needed for new ideas.
- Stay up to date with sector trends and maintain a strong understanding of PCR’s existing (and target) supporters to create and implement products and experiences that motivate and inspire.
- Use feedback and data to spot opportunities for the constant improvement of fundraisers’ experience with PCR.
- Work to engage supporters beyond their initial activity, testing ongoing journeys and maximising their life-time value for PCR.

Suicide is the leading cause of death of men under 35 and three quarters of those who die by suicide are men. James’ Place exists to save the lives of men in suicidal crisis through delivering clinical services.

James had no history of mental illness or depression and had sought urgent help for anxiety and suicidal thoughts but didn’t find it.
James' Place was set up to make the experience of finding help as easy as possible. We offer men who are experiencing a suicidal crisis a brief, intensive, therapeutic intervention in a safe environment.
