It's vital we do our best to make sure this research makes a meaningful difference to men's lives, and that's where you come in. We're at an exciting time, with a new strategy coming soon, and so we are looking to grow our Research Funding Team. We're looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Grant Manager to help us deliver our core funding schemes and embark on new, exciting initiatives to fund ground-breaking research that will revolutionise how prostate cancer is diagnosed and treated.
