There are over 10 million people living with arthritis. That's one in six, with over half of those living in pain every single day. The impact is huge as the condition slowly intrudes on everyday life - affecting the ability to work, care for a family, to move free from pain and to live independently. Yet arthritis is often dismissed as an inevitable part of ageing or shrugged off as 'just a bit of arthritis'. We don't think that this is OK. Arthritis UK is here to change that.

Arthritis UK is committed to keeping children, young people and vulnerable adults safe from harm. During the recruitment process we will undertake safer recruitment practices and relevant checks to ensure applicants are suitable to work with children, young people and vulnerable adults.

Arthritis UK is a Registered Charity No: 207711 and in Scotland No. SC041156.

Our mission? To champion human factors, set the gold standard for the discipline and support our members with professional development and engagement with a thriving community. Join us and meet some amazing people.

About us

We’re the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics & Human Factors (CIEHF) and what we do is pretty special. We’re the only professional body in the world that can award the Chartered Ergonomist qualification (yes, the only one). You’d be part of a small but mighty team that’s passionate about making a difference in human factors. It’s a role where you’ll get variety, responsibility and the chance to help shape what we do.

The role

We’re on the lookout for a Member Services Officer to join our team full‑time in the Midlands. It’s a role that mixes customer service, organisation and a bit of creativity:

• You’ll be answering member questions and making sure they feel supported.
• Keeping records neat and tidy (because details matter).
• Helping us spread the word with member communications and marketing.
• Pulling together reports that keep us on track.
• And you’ll get to help run our online events, bringing our community together.

What we’re looking for

We don’t expect you to tick every single box, but here’s what would make you shine:

• A natural communicator who enjoys connecting with people from all walks of life.
• Customer service experience - you’re proactive, solutions‑focused and not easily flustered.
• Comfortable with numbers: you’ll be handling membership fees and putting together basic financial reports.
• Organised, collaborative and good at juggling tasks.
• Tech‑savvy with CRM systems and office tools.
• Bonus points if you’ve worked with membership organisations before (but it’s not a deal‑breaker).

We have regular team meetings in the West Midlands so you'll need to be based within reasonable travelling distance. Ideally, too, you'll have a valid driving licence.

This role will particularly suit a vet who enjoys a surgically biased caseload and who takes a medical, pragmatic approach to decision-making, focusing on evidence-based options and the best plan for each pet and owner. You’ll have the space and support to develop surgical leadership while working alongside a team that values clear plans, good communication and practical medicine.

You’ll be responsible for all aspects of team leadership, including recruitment, selection, coaching and development.

• Flexible working options to support your work–life balance and individual circumstances. 
• CPD allowance of one week and £1,000 per year for development.
