Project Manager - Inside Track
ABOUT US
There are millions of highly educated, well-paid, politically engaged people who care deeply about the world. Every morning, they go to work in professional services firms knowing that the firms they work for and the industries that they are a part of are blockers rather than enablers to a just transition.
They look for ways to ‘make a difference’ internally but fall at every hurdle. They think about quitting but feel financially tied to their jobs. They become accepting of the fact that things are how they are. They become disillusioned and start to feel helplessness and even shame. They offer little value to the transformation that the world needs and that they themselves yearn for.
Inside Track supports professionals working within major industries to come together — often in confidential or anonymous settings — to surface insights and build collective power for an equitable, regenerative future.
ABOUT THE ROLE
The role is a Project Manager at a start-up non-profit looking to create a global movement to support senior professionals in powerful industries to - collectively and anonymously - help drive positive change in their industries.
Your job will be to help recruit, facilitate and mobilise corporate ‘Insiders’ to help them transform their industries to support a more just and regenerative world.
We are looking for someone with skills in relationship building, facilitation, research and project management. We are particularly interested in candidates who have expertise working in public health and health inequalities, or who have a background in diversity, equity and inclusion in a corporate setting.
This is an amazing opportunity for someone interested in shaping a new and ambitious organisation, and supporting the development of a new method of civil society organising.
PERSON SPECIFICATION
We are looking for someone with at least two years of professional experience who is:
- Able to work delicately in high trust environments;
- Able to work collaboratively with partners;
- Energised to search and recruit for Insiders from a ‘cold’ start (e.g. building new relationships on Linkedin, etc.); and
- Able to help build the ecosystem which we are a part of.
We will be looking for people who have had to build things from scratch and are used to working with diverse stakeholder groups and holding a strong sense of purpose.
We are particularly interested in candidates with a background and experience in public health, health inequalities and diversity, equity and inclusion.
HOW TO APPLY
Stage 1: Applicants are requested to apply via CharityJob by 10am on 27th October 2025.
Stage 2: You’ll be invited to submit a full cover letter and/or attend a video call interview with one of our team to discuss your application.
Stage 3: We will be providing you with exercise (max time commitment 1hr) to complete.
Stage 4: You’ll be invited to a second interview, likely in person.
TIMELINE
Closing date: 10am on 27th October 2025
Interviews: November 2025
Start date: December 2025 / January 2026
A NOTE ON INCLUSION
We are committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of experiences, backgrounds and perspectives.
If you’re not sure whether you tick every box, but feel excited about the work, we strongly encourage you to apply.
We particularly welcome candidates from backgrounds underrepresented in media, campaigning, and systems change roles — including people of colour, disabled candidates, and those from working-class or non-traditional paths.
Please note that to be considered for this post, you must be legally eligible to work in the UK. We are unable to hire anyone that isn’t already living in the UK, nor are we able to sponsor visas.
WELLBEING AND TEAM CULTURE
This is a remote working role with regular travel to London. As a team we enjoy coworking together in-person on a regular basis, and invest in our working relationships.
Building a culture of wellness is important to us. All employees at Inside Track are able to access to 1-1 coaching and wellbeing support to help them navigate this work.
