About Ovarian Cancer Action
In the UK, only 1 in 3 women live more than 10 years after an ovarian cancer diagnosis.
As the leading ovarian cancer research charity, we’re working to change that. By finding new and better ways to prevent, treat and detect ovarian cancer, we will ensure a future where no woman dies of ovarian cancer.
Ovarian Cancer Action is a community of changemakers with one purpose: to give ovarian cancer the focus it needs to increase 10-year survival rates. And we know research is the solution.
We live and breathe this lifesaving, world-leading research. We fund more ovarian cancer research than any other UK gynaecological cancer charity. It’s how we’ve driven some of the biggest breakthroughs of the last 19 years.
We're also the only charity at the heart of the global ovarian cancer research community and have been for four decades.
By connecting the world's leading scientists together, we’re creating a powerful hub of experience, expertise and insight so that we confidently fund research that takes us a step closer to our goal: that by 2032 half of women will live more than 10 years after diagnosis.

About the role
We're looking for a Senior Digital Performance Marketing Officer to help drive forward MAP's digital fundraising programme at a pivotal moment for our work. You'll lead on the delivery of complex, multi-channel paid acquisition campaigns — recruiting new cash and regular givers through Meta, Google Ads, programmatic display and beyond — while shaping the strategy, testing plans and attribution models that make our digital fundraising smarter and more effective.
This is a role with real scope: you'll manage campaigns end-to-end, drive conversion rate optimisation across our key digital products, and build the processes and content pipelines that let a small but ambitious team punch above its weight.
If you're a performance marketer who wants your skills to translate directly into lifesaving healthcare for Palestinians, this is your chance.
As you will have seen from the role profile, this post requires a minimum of two days per week in our London office.

What we're looking for
- Proven experience managing paid digital performance marketing campaigns across channels including Meta Ads, Google Ads and programmatic display
- A strong eye for creative and storytelling, and an understanding of how paid and owned channels work together
- Confidence managing multiple complex campaigns and competing priorities
- Strong analytical skills — able to turn data from multiple sources into clear, actionable reporting
- Demonstrable experience influencing and managing stakeholders, internally and externally
- A good understanding of GDPR and the Fundraising Code of Practice
- Desired experience working on regular giving recruitment campaigns across digital and direct marketing channels.
- Experience in a charity, humanitarian or campaigning environment is a plus, but not essential
