Do sweeteners cause cancer? Why are skin cancer rates on the rise? Does vaping help people to stop smoking?
 

These are the kind of questions that our Health Information team respond to on a daily basis.
 

We are professionals with purpose, beating cancer every day. But we need to go much further and much faster. That's why we we're looking for someone talented, someone passionate about public health, someone like you.
 

We are looking for a Health Information Officer to develop engaging evidence-based information for the public and key professionals on cancer risk, prevention, early diagnosis and screening. Cancer Research UK is the most trusted provider of cancer information in the UK and you will be responsible for helping steer what we say and how we say it, ensuring our health information is evidence based, accessible and credible.

What will I be doing?

  • Developing a sound knowledge base of key research relevant to cancer risk, prevention, early diagnosis and screening

  • Taking the lead on appraising and critiquing evidence for specific topic areas, including contributing to team discussions and written summaries for these topics

  • Producing internal evidence summaries/briefings on topics related to cancer risk, prevention, screening and early diagnosis, as required

  • Producing accurate, engaging and enabling content on cancer risk, prevention, early diagnosis and screening for our audiences through a range of channels, including leaflets, newsletters, websites, blogs and social media

  • Developing an understanding of the key audiences for cancer risk, prevention, screening and early diagnosis information and how to address inequalities in people's ability to access, interpret and act upon health information

  • Building relationships with appropriate stakeholders - guiding activity and delivering evidence-based, creative health-related content that meets customer needs (e.g. for fundraising / policy / campaigns activity)

  • After appropriate training, developing written responses and comments for the media on news stories relevant to cancer risk, prevention, early diagnosis and screening.

What skills are we looking for?

  • Proven ability to critique epidemiological/public health research papers

  • Experience of and passion for explaining complex health information to a non-scientific audience in an engaging way

  • Good understanding of cancer and/or public health

  • Flexible approach that allows you to balance proactive and reactive tasks, allowing you to manage quickly changing priorities within your usual working day, re-prioritising tasks or asking for support as appropriate

  • Able to build effective working relationships with colleagues, researchers, health professionals and other stakeholders

  • Able to manage or support specific projects, ensuring that stakeholders are involved, and that the project is completed within allocated timescales and budget (if applicable).


What will I gain?

Each and every one of our employees contributes to our progress and is supporting our work to beat cancer. We think that's impressive.

In return, we make sure you are supported by a generous benefits package, a wide range of career and personal development opportunities and high-quality tools, policies and processes to enable you to do your job well.

Our benefits package includes a substantial retirement plan, a generous and flexible leave allowance, discounts on anything from travel to technology, gym membership, and much more.

We don't forget people have lives outside of work too and so we actively encourage a flexible working culture.

Our work - from funding cutting-edge research to developing public policy - will change the world. It's exciting to be part of our team.


How do I apply?

We operate an anonymised shortlisting process in our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion. CVs are required for all applications; but we won't be able to view them until we invite you for an interview. Instead, we ask you to complete the work history section of the online application form for us to be able to assess you quickly, fairly and objectively.
