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.

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 years
• Committees to join – Culture team, Diversity Equity & Inclusion, Movember book group
• Bike to work scheme
• Half day Fridays for 9 months of the year

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.

If so, we’d love to hear from you.

I am a happy young man who enjoys socialising with those around me. I mostly communicate through non-verbal language, touch, and vocalisations. I have a good relationship with my family and get excited when they visit me.

I enjoy spending time in nature and like going for walks in the local parks. I also enjoy car rides and would prefer that people who support me have a current UK driving licence (I have my own Motability car).

I have specific sensory needs, those around me must be mindful of those.

I like to be surrounded by people who can creatively engage me in tasks and activities and offer me choices and opportunities to develop my daily living skills.

I might experience difficulties understanding and managing my emotions and behaviours at times. People working with me must be able to support me in such challenging situations through Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) strategies as detailed in my support plan.

Director of Marketing & Growth
London (with flexibility for one day of remote working per week)
£80,000 – £100,000 per annum

Our client, a fast-growing London-based charity harnessing the power of football to transform lives, is seeking a commercially minded, brand-led Director of Marketing & Growth to lead their next phase of strategic expansion. The organisation delivers accessible, high-quality football programmes to thousands of young people across London, regardless of background or ability to pay.

With ambitious plans to reach 20,000 young people each week by 2028, this newly created leadership role will play a pivotal part in building the charity’s visibility, momentum, and supporter base. The successful candidate will be responsible for growing reach and revenue by transforming the organisation’s impact into compelling narratives—making it a trusted brand for parents, an inspiring one for young people, and a credible, values-led partner for funders and commercial supporters.

This is an opportunity to shape and execute a bold, insight-led strategy that brings together brand, marketing, and sales. The Director will lead a talented and growing team and will have the resources and mandate to build a high-performing, scalable function driven by strong data, effective systems, and creative campaigns.

While experience in football is not required, a passion for the sport and belief in its power to drive social change is essential. This role is ideal for someone eager to build a youth brand with genuine purpose and lasting impact.

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Proven leadership in marketing, growth, or commercial development

• A strong track record of driving revenue and delivering ROI through marketing and customer acquisition

• Experience scaling teams, systems, and campaigns in fast-paced, high-growth environments

• Expertise in digital, CRM, and performance marketing with a data-driven mindset

• A passion for using football—or sport more broadly—as a tool for positive social change

This is a unique opportunity to be part of a movement ensuring that no young person is left behind due to their background or financial circumstances.
