At The Bike Project we provide an innovative solution to one of the most pressing problems facing asylum seekers and refugees on arrival to the UK: access to transport when living on a limited income.
Our mission is simple: each year we match refugees and asylum seekers with the many thousands of bikes that go abandoned or unloved around the country. We then go on to support these new bike owners to realise the emotional, practical and physical benefits of cycling. 9 years since that first bike donation, we are about to donate our 10,000th bike and have expanded the project to include multiple programs, from refugee befriending services to women-only cycling classes.
We have supported tens of thousands of refugees to get access to bikes, learn to cycle and created a community of colleagues, refugees, volunteers and supporters. And we’ve grown rapidly in the last few years, from £720k turnover in 2018, to £2.3m turnover in 2021 and employing almost 40 staff. Despite our success, this is just the start and we are looking for a CEO who will continue to lead The Bike Project on to even greater things!
Please note that although the position is predominatly remote, with no requirement to work from the office, the nature of the role involves attending regular face to face activities and site visits around London. These vary in frequency but can be several times per week.

We are looking for new, talented colleagues to help us on the next steps of our journey. Our team is at the very heart of NHS Providers’ activities.
We play a critical role in our organisation’s success – in setting out the concerns and challenges our members face; in highlighting and celebrating their achievements; and in helping our members to understand and access support which helps them deliver better care for patients across the NHS.
That task has never been more important than during the pandemic, which has seen NHS trusts and foundation trusts facing extraordinary pressures. They have risen magnificently to these challenges. But there are more trying times ahead.
The continuing threat from COVID-19, the need to address the backlog of care, and the unprecedented demand for services come at a time of constrained capacity, a challenging financial picture and workforce shortages.
There is also a growing role for trusts in the evolving health and care landscape to address health and race inequalities. NHS Providers is committed to being an anti-racist organisation.
Never have we needed brilliant communicators more, to join us in making the case for the NHS, and to support the work of our members. You’ll be joining a fast-moving and creative team, with opportunities to develop and progress, and a high degree of licence and autonomy. You’ll be empowered to bring your energy and passion to have the greatest impact and ensure we go from strength to strength.
About this role
We are entering a crucial phase of progress and transformation for our digital communications and engagement – a key pillar of our communication and marketing strategy.
You will play a key role in supporting and delivering our increasingly important work in digital communications – with particular focus on our website, social media, video, podcast and wider membership communications activities.
You will help ensure we are on the cutting edge, providing responsive solutions for our staff and members, and pushing our creative boundaries so we engage fully, using high quality digital content which reflects us and our members.
A substantial part of the responsibility in the first 18 months will be supporting the scoping, commissioning, creation and delivery of a new corporate web solution. This will entail working across the organisation and beyond to implement a best-in-class website which provides a streamlined, easier user experience (particularly for members), generating bespoke, automated content that better serves their needs.
Reporting to the senior digital communications manager, and line managing our digital communications assistant, you will also have a hands-on role in developing and improving our other digital communications channels, content and approach, deploying fantastic content to help deliver great engagement and better awareness of key corporate messages.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is looking to further their communications experience and expertise in a high-profile national organisation. The role is busy and varied and you will input to work across the team’s remit including media relations, publishing, marketing, branding, member communications and events.

You will be supporting talented scientists to achieve the best results they can for people affected by prostate cancer by not only coordinating funding opportunities, but staying with them all the way throughout their projects after the awards are made.
This position requires an individual with an incredible level of organizational ability, a strong belief in scientific and social research and its potential to create a better world, strong skills and experience in managing grant finances, and who enjoys working across teams in a collaborative environment. As our Senior Research Executive, you will be part of our drive to use science and research to the benefit of patients, and will always remain connected to this goal. You will have an awareness of some of the problems that can exist within academic research and be willing to assist us in safeguarding our community against them. You will work closely with our Head of Partnerships and Head of Finance to support their due diligence and operations, such as managing grant finances post-award, and inputting on and reviewing reports for funders and donors. The overall culture of the organisation is to support continuous learning, so if you are thoughtful and value opportunities to learn new skills, this is the place for you.
We have quintupled our research in four years, notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic in which we were one of the only charities in the sector not to cut a single research budget, open up a new grant call in the midst of the first lockdown, and keep over 60% of our research going despite lab closures and restrictions. We have been shortlisted for an impact prize, and identified and targeted specific unmet needs in the prostate cancer ecosystem, such as racial inequalities and bone metastasis. We are currently working with our newly formed translational unit to ensure good research can be translated from the lab to the clinic. We hope all of this will boost our chances of making a real difference for all affected by one of the UK’s most common cancers. You will be instrumental in maintaining this momentum, and continuing to grow our impact.

About Cord
Cord is an international charity working to make peace a reality where people don’t have the freedom to exercise their rights. We work to build the relationship between those in power and local communities.
We believe that people flourish when all parts of society work together. Peaceful relationships make that possible. The simple act of talking begins a journey of growth which transforms mistrust, includes the excluded and turns adversaries into allies.
We are a small committed team who love working together to make a huge impact. If you like the sound of us then take a look at the current roles we have available to come and join our team!
