Living Wage Foundation 

The Living Wage is an independent movement of businesses, organisations and people who believe that a hard day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay. The Living Wage campaign was launched by London Citizens in 2001 and aims to ensure low paid workers have enough money to get by and enough time for community and family life. 

The Living Wage is an hourly rate calculated according to the basic cost of living in the UK that employers choose to pay on a voluntary basis. The Living Wage Foundation recognises and celebrates employers that pay the real Living Wage through an accreditation programme which awards the Living Wage Employer Mark. 

The independently-calculated rates are announced during Living Wage Week each November when we celebrate our growing network of Living Wage employers. There are now more than 15,000 accredited Living Wage employers across the UK which has secured pay rises for over 475,000 employees. 

The Living Wage Foundation is part of Citizens UK – a community organising charity which works with a broad base of institutions across the political spectrum. At the Living Wage Foundation, we take a deliberately broad-based approach and accredit all organisations who pay the real Living Wage to their directly and indirectly employed staff and are committed to tackling in work poverty. As a team we work across a range of industries and sectors to achieve this mission. We seek pragmatic coalitions in order to progress specific campaigns, and partnership around a particular issue such as Living Wage, does not imply an endorsement of broader purpose and policies.

Prostate Cancer UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1005541) and in Scotland (SC039332). Registered company number 02653887.

Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men’s health globally, tackling mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, testicular cancer.

In our mission to stop men dying too young, we’re recruiting four Fundraising Operations Assistants to join our team and help deliver our hugely successful annual charity campaign across our UK and European markets. This is a Fixed Term Contract from September to December 2025.

You will be part of our vibrant and energetic team supporting our fundraising community and the delivery of the Movember campaign across the UK and our key European markets. This is a hybrid role, with the option to work remotely but there will be the expectation to be in the London Office at least three times a week.

We encourage applications from all backgrounds and communities and are committed to having a team that is made up of diverse skills, experiences and abilities.

You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Be the voice of Movember, responding to all email, live chat, SMS and telephone enquiries from our community in a fast and effective manner.
• Process donations and gift matching requests efficiently.
• Support the Fundraising team on research, outreach, data management and project work as required.
• Support the management of the UK Facebook inbox and fundraising pages.
• Identify any patterns or issues with the website, and reporting these to the Head of Fundraising Operations.
• Support our post-campaign thanking.
• Support office management; including collecting, processing and sending post, and ordering supplies to be used by the team.
• Respond to ad-hoc requests as needed.
• Help execute the distribution of merch and rewards to our key supporters.
• Attend local events, where necessary, to give our fundraisers a remarkable experience, which can include work at evenings and weekends.

For this role, you’ll need:

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• A passion for delivering excellent customer service.
• Great organisation skills and ability to prioritise.
• The ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
• To work well under pressure and to deadlines, with excellent attention to detail.
• Be a great team player.
• A high degree of self-motivation and initiative.

Desirable:

• Proficiency in Dutch, French or German.
• Fundraising experience in a personal or professional capacity.

GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help raise millions for men’s health (not for a CEO’s bonus). And all those dollars do a whole lotta good. We’ve funded cancer research. Created lifesaving medicines. And helped make cancer treatments less “one-size-fits-all”, and more specific to each patient’s needs.

We’re even calling for governments worldwide to get it together on men’s health. By meeting directly with policymakers so they change the systems that change men’s health.

GOOD VIBES:
The vibes aren’t just for Fridays – even though we start weekends early nine months of the year. Here, it always feels like something big’s about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an impromptu all-staff boogie.

Come the hairy season, the energy gets silly. 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. And that means one thing: it’s conga time.

GOOD CREW:
Let’s just get this out of the way: big egos need not apply. We’re all about straight-up solid human beings out to do meaningful work. People who’ll help you reach career-best moments. And give you the freedom to get there the best way you see fit.

Hybrid remote working is the norm. And in the office, you can sit where you please. Who knows? On any given day you could even end up desk buddies with the man who started this all.

• Hybrid/Flexible working – we offer our team a split of home and office working
• 13 weeks paid Parental Leave above statutory amounts
• Up to 6 weeks of annual leave available
• 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
• Learning & Development opportunities - training allowances and secondments
• A fun stimulating and collaborating culture, with company events
• Service awards after 3, 5 and 10 years
• Bike to work scheme

Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter.) 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.

Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.

All of us at The Talent Foundry (TTF) believe that a young person's success should be determined by the talents and abilities they have, not where they come from.

Each year we support 60,000 young people thanks to our transformational industry partnerships and their volunteers’ engagement across lightbulb moments in schools, through to intensive connections with employers.

Everyone on our team is:

• Passionate about the charity's vision to improve social mobility
• Motivated by team success 
• Proactive in getting things done 

The values of ambition, inquisitiveness, and inclusivity and equity guide us in everything we do.

AI doesn't know you or your work history, so use sparingly. 

The best way to learn about our work is from our website, not AI. We receive many applications generated by AI platforms which often include incorrect information about our charity - providing incorrect or misinformation may mean we discount your application.
