Senior membership programmes manager jobs

£36,250 - £42,500 per year

Permanent, full-time (37.5 hours per week)

Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office

What the job involves

We’re looking for an ambitious fundraiser to join our Philanthropy team, capitalising on recent growth and with the chance to really make your mark. Your role is to engage influential and high-profile individuals and Trusts in the UK, connecting them to the difference they can make to thousands of men facing prostate cancer. You’ll lead on our established high value giving club, ‘The Pioneers’, and be creative with developing and growing membership and income for this product.

Providing the highest level of stewardship, you’ll ensure existing and new supporters feel valued, inspiring them to make five and six figure gifts, which will significantly improve the lives of men facing prostate cancer and their families. You’ll also harness the support of our enthusiastic and influential Trustees, Senior Volunteers and Leadership Team, involving them when appropriate.

As a Philanthropy team, we work hard to support and motivate each other. We’re inclusive, enthusiastic, open, helpful and driven. We’re looking for someone who shares our passion to achieve success and work collaboratively to bring about the urgent change needed for men.

What we want from you

You’ll bring strong experience within a philanthropy fundraising environment, including a solid understanding of solicitation stages and effective engagement techniques. You’ll have a proven track record of securing five-figure gifts and ideally experience working with major donors and/or trusts, with the credibility and confidence to build lasting relationships with high-net-worth individuals, trustees and senior stakeholders.

A natural collaborator, you’ll combine a strong team ethic with the flexibility and drive needed to achieve ambitious targets. You’ll be an excellent communicator, with the influencing and negotiation skills to engage a wide range of internal and external stakeholders at all levels.

Highly organised and comfortable managing competing priorities, you’ll be able to balance the stewardship of existing supporters with the cultivation of new prospects. You’ll be comfortable working both strategically and in detail, from shaping individual engagement plans to supporting the growth of giving clubs or membership schemes as a key driver of future income and impact so we can save more men’s lives. 

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion

At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.

We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.

How and where we work

Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.

Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.

We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.

The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action.

Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine. How successfully they achieve real and lasting change depends on whether they are organised and whether they have the right strategy and tactics to be effective.​

We want youth organising to be enshrined in the UK for generations to come, and for young people to have tangible political power to influence national policy. That’s why we have launched two national coalitions, one around climate, and the other around gender. Each will train organisations across the country to become youth organisers, and work together to bring 100 young people together to identify the strategy and tactics needed to achieve change. These young leaders will organise others and work collectively to build a campaign which shakes the status quo.​

We are looking for a Head of Programmes who believes in this vision and is capable of building the leadership of young people that enables them to turn the resources they have into the power they need to make the change they want. It will be your job to help grow the Changemaker Development programme, train and organise Changemakers, create magic and spark the hope for something more! If this excites you, then please apply.

Before you skim the job description, please remember you don’t have to tick all the boxes for each role to apply. Charity experience is not a requirement! We all experience a bit of imposter syndrome, including the staff here at The Advocacy Academy. Let’s name it for what it is - a manifestation of the oppression many of us face on a day to day.​If this role pulls you and you believe you could make a difference, then apply anyway or reach out to us to discuss more!​​

Senior Manager for Underrepresented Communities and Funded Growth

The Scouts | London (Gilwell Park) / Hybrid or Homebased | £60,240/£62,000 + £5k car allowance

Lead national growth and innovation at one of the UK's most recognisable youth organisations.

About The Scouts

The Scouts support over 400,000 young people aged 4-25 across the UK to develop skills for life. At a time when communities can feel divided, Scouts brings people together, helping young people find confidence, belonging, and purpose.

As a Movement the organisation is committed to ensuring that Scouting reflects the full diversity of modern Britain, expanding its reach into communities that have historically been underrepresented.

The Opportunity

This is a senior strategic leadership role, responsible for shaping and delivering Scouts' targeted growth, innovation, and externally funded programmes.

You will work as part of the Movement Support & Growth Department, which exists to support the conditions for local Scouting to thrive. Importantly, since Scouts is a volunteer-led movement, your role will be to enable, influence, and strengthen the delivery of Scouts to young people.

This is a unique opportunity to:

• Lead a national growth portfolio focused on inclusion and impact
• Translate funding into sustainable, community-led growth
• Shape how Scouts engages with underrepresented communities
• Develop and scale new models for growth and delivery

Key Responsibilities

You will:

• Lead the design and delivery of targeted and funded growth programmes, ensuring clear outcomes in membership growth and access
• Champion inclusive, equity-driven approaches, ensuring work is informed by community insight and lived experience
• Develop and scale innovative models for growth, embedding learning across the organisation
• Work closely with Strategic Fundraising, using data and insight to support funding development and reporting
• Build strong alignment across HQ, nations, regions, and volunteer leadership, influencing at all levels
• Provide clear reporting on impact, value for money, and learning
• Lead and develop specialist teams, empowering them to deliver high-quality work

About You

You'll be a strategic, systems-thinking leader who thrives in complex environments and can bring together multiple stakeholders around shared goals.

You don't need to come from a Scouting background, but you will bring:

• Experience leading large-scale programmes, portfolios or innovation work
• Strong understanding of funded or grant-funded programmes
• Ability to translate strategy into scalable delivery models
• Experience working with or alongside underrepresented communities, building trust and sustainable engagement
• Confidence influencing across complex, matrixed organisations
• A collaborative leadership style, with the ability to empower specialist teams and volunteers

Critically, you will bring a genuine commitment to equity, inclusion and community-led approaches.

Why this role?

This is a rare opportunity to combine strategy, innovation, and social impact at scale.

You'll play a key role in ensuring that more young people, especially those who might not traditionally access Scouting, can benefit from its life-changing opportunities.

Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

The Scouts are committed to building an inclusive organisation where everyone feels they belong. Applications are particularly welcomed from people from communities that are underrepresented in Scouting, including Black communities, Muslim communities, and others who may have faced barriers to participation.

At Charity People, we believe that diversity strengthens organisations and we actively encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.

At Diabetes UK, everything we do is about improving the lives of people affected by diabetes. But we know that to do our best work externally, we need to pay just as much attention to how we support, develop and engage our people internally.

That’s where this role comes in. We’re looking for a Senior Learning & Development (L&D) Advisor to join our Learning and Engagement team on a maternity cover. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced L&D professional who loves designing great learning experiences, partnering with managers, and helping organisations live their values through meaningful development.

You’ll be an experienced L&D professional who enjoys both strategic thinking and practical delivery who can confidently design and deliver engaging, inclusive learning across leadership, management and personal development.
