Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer July -31 Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer £34,300 - £37,300 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 Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer to join our Health Services, Equity and Improvement directorate. In this role, you'll be at the heart of our work to raise awareness and build stronger connections with those most at risk of prostate cancer. You'll support our community engagement and participation efforts, making sure the voices of men affected by prostate cancer, and those at risk, shape what we do and how we do it. A big part of the role involves working directly with individuals and communities, helping them feel empowered and supported to get involved and make a real impact. You'll be the main point of contact for involving patients in projects, manage the day-to-day running of our Patient Advisory Group, and oversee our community inbox to make sure requests are responded to quickly and effectively and help to triage support requests. Working with volunteers is another key part of the role. You'll recruit and guide volunteers raising awareness in their communities, helping to deliver onboarding, training and ongoing support. You'll work closely with our Volunteer Experience team to ensure everyone has a positive and meaningful experience. You'll regularly attend community events and find impactful ways to share our messages - particularly with communities affected by health inequalities. You'll also help measure and evaluate the impact of our awareness and engagement work. This is a rewarding role where you'll meet volunteers and supporters and see the impact of our work first-hand. Together, we're raising awareness of prostate cancer, giving men the knowledge of their risk and the power to act on it. What we want from you To be successful in this role you'll be passionate about public health, awareness raising and working with people with lived experience. Patient involvement is a core principle of our organisation so understanding how that can inform and shape the charity's work is essential. You'll be an excellent communicator (both in person and in writing) and able to engage clearly across a range of channels and audiences. Strong project management skills are essential, as you'll often be juggling different tasks and working with a range of people, including patient groups, volunteers and colleagues across the charity. You'll be comfortable building relationships with communities, volunteers and partners, and have a good understanding of how health inequalities affect access to healthcare. Experience of working directly with communities most affected by these inequalities will be a real advantage. You'll also be able to think creatively about how to raise awareness and broaden participation beyond traditional volunteering roles. It's important that you can measure and evaluate the impact of engagement and involvement work, and that you bring a thoughtful, inclusive approach to everything you do. 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. What we offer Join our team and be part of an award-winning charity. We'll support you to develop your skills and expertise. We offer a competitive benefits package, including: Generous leave entitlements that increase with service One 'development day' a month to use for training or personal development Enhanced contributory pension scheme Life insurance and group income protection Health Cash Plan Life and wellbeing advice and support via our Employee Assistance Programme Discounted gym membership and high street shopping discounts Loans for season tickets or cycles 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. Our people networks We're continuously learning more about the needs of our colleagues, and have three amazing People Networks, sponsored by our Leadership team: Pride - A safe space where LGBTQ+ colleagues - and our allies - can share their diverse lived experiences, celebrate LGBTQ+ culture and history, and create new ideas about how our organisation can be more inclusive and representative of LGBTQ+ people Mind & Body - Here to increase awareness, promote wellbeing and support colleagues affected by neurodiversity, mental health problems, disability and long-term illness Culture Club - Here to increase awareness and celebrate the different cultures and beliefs that we have in the organisation, so that we all have our cultures felt and feel welcomed Wellbeing and hybrid 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.

Full time
Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer July -31 Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer £34,300 - £37,300 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 Awareness, Engagement and Participation Senior Officer to join our Health Services, Equity and Improvement directorate. In this role, you'll be at the heart of our work to raise awareness and build stronger connections with those most at risk of prostate cancer. You'll support our community engagement and participation efforts, making sure the voices of men affected by prostate cancer, and those at risk, shape what we do and how we do it. A big part of the role involves working directly with individuals and communities, helping them feel empowered and supported to get involved and make a real impact. You'll be the main point of contact for involving patients in projects, manage the day-to-day running of our Patient Advisory Group, and oversee our community inbox to make sure requests are responded to quickly and effectively and help to triage support requests. Working with volunteers is another key part of the role. You'll recruit and guide volunteers raising awareness in their communities, helping to deliver onboarding, training and ongoing support. You'll work closely with our Volunteer Experience team to ensure everyone has a positive and meaningful experience. You'll regularly attend community events and find impactful ways to share our messages - particularly with communities affected by health inequalities. You'll also help measure and evaluate the impact of our awareness and engagement work. This is a rewarding role where you'll meet volunteers and supporters and see the impact of our work first-hand. Together, we're raising awareness of prostate cancer, giving men the knowledge of their risk and the power to act on it. What we want from you To be successful in this role you'll be passionate about public health, awareness raising and working with people with lived experience. Patient involvement is a core principle of our organisation so understanding how that can inform and shape the charity's work is essential. You'll be an excellent communicator (both in person and in writing) and able to engage clearly across a range of channels and audiences. Strong project management skills are essential, as you'll often be juggling different tasks and working with a range of people, including patient groups, volunteers and colleagues across the charity. You'll be comfortable building relationships with communities, volunteers and partners, and have a good understanding of how health inequalities affect access to healthcare. Experience of working directly with communities most affected by these inequalities will be a real advantage. You'll also be able to think creatively about how to raise awareness and broaden participation beyond traditional volunteering roles. It's important that you can measure and evaluate the impact of engagement and involvement work, and that you bring a thoughtful, inclusive approach to everything you do. 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. What we offer Join our team and be part of an award-winning charity. We'll support you to develop your skills and expertise.

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. Our people networks We're continuously learning more about the needs of our colleagues, and have three amazing People Networks, sponsored by our Leadership team: Pride - A safe space where LGBTQ+ colleagues - and our allies - can share their diverse lived experiences, celebrate LGBTQ+ culture and history, and create new ideas about how our organisation can be more inclusive and representative of LGBTQ+ people Mind & Body - Here to increase awareness, promote wellbeing and support colleagues affected by neurodiversity, mental health problems, disability and long-term illness Culture Club - Here to increase awareness and celebrate the different cultures and beliefs that we have in the organisation, so that we all have our cultures felt and feel welcomed Wellbeing and hybrid 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.
