What the job involves
We're looking for a Fulfilment Manager to join us on a fixed-term contract until the end of February 2027. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in how we support our fundraisers, supporters and people affected by prostate cancer, ensuring the smooth delivery of fulfilment services across the charity. You'll manage our relationship with an external fulfilment partner, making sure services are delivered efficiently, cost-effectively and in line with agreed standards.

You'll join us at a pivotal time as we begin working with a new supplier. Working closely with colleagues across fundraising, supporter care, health information, digital and customer operations, you'll lead on supplier performance, service improvements and process optimisation. Using data and insight, you'll identify opportunities to enhance the supporter experience, protect income and help ensure our fulfilment service continues to meet the changing needs of the charity.

Alongside leading our fulfilment service, you'll manage and develop our ecommerce function. From stock forecasting and product development to supplier management and shop performance, you'll ensure our online shop delivers a great customer experience, supports fundraising objectives and continues to grow its reach and impact.

You'll also provide line management support to the E-Commerce Executive, providing guidance, feedback and development opportunities to help them thrive.

What we want from you
We’re looking for someone who enjoys improving processes and building strong relationships.  You’ll thrive in this role if you’re naturally organised, able to balance attention to detail with multiple moving parts and motivated by delivering an excellent supporter experience.

You’ll be solutions-focused and confident managing priorities, working with data to inform decisions and collaborating across teams to make things happen.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you and see how you could help us make a real difference for our supporters!

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.

Social entrepreneurs scaling their ventures face a specific set of challenges including income generation, hiring, governance, hard calls about growth and risk, all alongside scaling their social impact. We’re recruiting learning and enterprise development managers who’ve lived that journey themselves, to bring first-hand credibility and challenge directly to the entrepreneurs on our scale-up and scale-up-plus programmes.

You’ll hold ownership of SSE’s scale-up approach, shaping our learning content on strategy, profitability and the systems that hold a growing venture together – grounded in what actually works, not just what’s written down. Facilitation sits at the heart of this role. You’ll design and deliver learning programmes and group sessions for cohorts of entrepreneurs as well as leading 1-2-1 coaching and diagnostics, and delivering Action Learning Sets, SSE’s long-standing peer-coaching method (training provided).

We’re looking for people who’ve founded or led a VCSE with an annual turnover of £100,000 or more and held financial accountability such as statutory reporting to the Charity Commission and, where relevant, Companies House, reporting to a board or funders, and making hard calls about growth, income and risk.

You’ll succeed in this role if you believe in what social entrepreneurship can achieve and want to turn your experience into supporting social ventures to scale and create more impact in their communities and beyond

Energy

● Demonstrate a positive mindset and solutions-oriented attitude: Where others see problems, pitfalls, and potential for disaster, you might see opportunity and new possibilities to make a difference.

● Demonstrate stamina and resilience: You are dependable under pressure and strong despite adversity. You can deal with complex or difficult situations with a cool head. You do not give up when the going gets tough. You accept when mistakes are made, learn from them, and move on. You can recover quickly after failures, disappointments, or dead ends.

● Appreciation of the impact and importance of people-powered campaigning: with a commitment to drive engagement at all levels 

Expertise

● Demonstrate the ability to see a situation accurately with a broad set of perspectives: You are able to make the “right” judgement calls and decisions.

You know how the organisation is structured, how decisions are made, and how information flows. Furthermore, you have a high level of understanding of the changing external context in which Greenpeace operates and the ability to make a judgement about how to respond. This is why you can “read” factual evidence as well as the environment in a meaningful manner and thus help devise a plan of action. Sometimes you “see” what others do not see.

Execute

● Being a role model for accountability and straightforwardness: High sense of personal accountability and the ability to hold others accountable.

● Knowledge sharing: Uses formal, informal and systematic methods to share information with others to increase organisational effectiveness.
