3. Inclusive

4. Creative

5. Community-centred

6. Sustainable

The London Irish Centre is an equal opportunities employer. We actively encourage applications from diverse backgrounds, communities and industries, and are committed to equality and diversity within our workforce. Please note our offices have some barriers to access, which is one of the core missions that our redevelopment will overcome.

Why this role matters:

Every day, millions of unpaid carers across the UK face immense challenges, often with little ecognition or support. At C r arers Trust, we believe robust, insightful evidence is essential to driving meaningful change for these carers – and that’s where you come in.

As our Research Manager, you won’t just be producing reports – you’ll be leading the charge in uncovering the real experiences of unpaid carers and identifying practical, transformative solutions to support them. This is a role that sits at the heart of our work: turning insight into influence, and evidence into action.

What you’ll do:

• Lead new research that explores the complexities of unpaid care, from the day-to-day realities carers face to the systems and services intended to support them.

• Work directly with carers and the organisations that serve them, ensuring our research is grounded, participatory, and genuinely reflective of real lives.

• Bridge the gap between academia, policy, and practice, using both rigorous academic methods and agile, think tank-style approaches to drive timely and impactful outputs.

• Shape the national conversation by presenting evidence to decision-makers, influencing policy debates, and helping Carers Trust lead the sector in what works – and what needs to change.

• Embed an evidence-driven culture across Carers Trust, working with colleagues across teams UK-wide to ensure insight guides everything we do.

Why now?

The challenges facing unpaid carers are growing – from navigating stretched health and social care systems to balancing work, wellbeing, and financial strain. At the same time, there's increasing recognition that carers are essential to the functioning of society and public services. This is a pivotal moment to influence the future of care – and we need a Research Manager who is passionate, curious, and committed to driving real change.

Who we’re looking for:

An experienced researcher with a talent for turning data into stories and findings into influence. Someone comfortable collaborating with academics, policymakers, service providers and – most importantly – carers themselves. A strategic thinker and a skilled communicator, who thrives on connecting the dots between evidence, lived experience, and innovation.

£28,000 - £30,450 per annum

Fixed term (12 months), 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 a Customer Experience Executive to join our team on a fixed term basis covering an internal secondment. This is a fantastic opportunity for a proactive, people-orientated, Customer Experience/ Supporter Care professional to join an established team at one of the most dynamic charities in the UK.

You’ll be a critical part of the Customer Experience and Engagement Team in our Communications Directorate. Focussing on supporter care, you’ll be committed to building and strengthening long term relationships with our customers – from service users to fundraisers, from campaigners to volunteers. You’ll enjoy keeping customers coming back for more.

We’re transforming our culture to be customer and insight driven and this role will play a major part in making that happen. You’ll be supporting the Customer Experience Manager in gathering customer intelligence and implementing evidence-based insights to reinforce and improve customer journeys.

You’ll provide a customer focused steer in working groups for new and existing fundraising products. Putting the experience of the customer first, you’ll help build long term relationships with our customers and keep them coming back for more. You’ll be passionate about stopping prostate cancer killing men and damaging bodies.

You’ll develop a sound understanding of our processes with a drive and desire to continually improve the way we work, using an agile mindset, seeking, and implementing solutions and finding better ways of working.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a people-focused, self-motivated, and hands-on individual who believes that every interaction matters. You’ll have experience working in a busy, customer-focused support team and enjoy the “nuts and bolts” of delivering customer-centred, insights-led experiences just as much as delivering the experience itself. You’ll help strengthen the relationships we have with our customers, so together we can create a world where lives aren’t limited by prostate cancer.

You’ll be comfortable dealing with complaints and able to engage with a wide range of customers, showing enthusiasm or empathy when it’s needed.

You’ll be a strong communicator, able to adapt your style to suit different people and situations and have experience building good relationships at all levels of an organisation. You’ll be comfortable highlighting the impact that every stakeholder has on our customers’ experiences. Proactive, collaborative, and a real people person, you’ll work well under pressure as part of a dynamic team.

You’ll have experience using a CRM system (like Raiser’s Edge) and understand the importance of handling sensitive data in line with GDPR regulations. Ideally, you’ll also have a good understanding of fundraising rules, including Gift Aid.

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.

Ways of working

Our hybrid working approach combines the best of flexible working – a positive work/life balance, inclusive and accessible platforms, and online information at our fingertips.
