About us

At Macmillan you’ll find talented people working together to do whatever it takes to support people living with cancer. We’re going all out to find even better ways to help even more people who need our support. Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions.

About the role

Do you have exceptional volunteer management skills and the passion to help us deliver impactful emotional and practical support services for people living with cancer?

It’s an exciting time to join Macmillan Cancer Support as we’ve recently launched our new five-year strategy and work towards delivering our vision to do whatever it takes to get every person the best support today and spark a revolution in cancer care for the future.

This is a pivotal role in which you will have the opportunity to support the delivery of volunteering roles in our health and social care services so that a wider range of people can get involved in supporting people affected by cancer.

About you

You’ll support the growth of volunteering in health and social care services by delivering volunteer involving opportunities and enabling their sustainability. A key component of the role will be to work collaboratively with your peers to enable a positive volunteer experience and delivery of effective emotional support interventions to people living with cancer.

It’s particularly important that you demonstrate sound knowledge of policies and procedures relevant to this role and experience of planning. A rounded understanding of volunteering in its widest sense is useful in addition. Most important of all though, your successful track record in supporting a range of volunteer led services working with a vulnerable client group within a health and care setting is needed to achieve our goals.

In return, we offer a range of benefits including:

• 25 days holiday plus flexible bank holiday options, increasing by 1 day every year of service up to 30 days
• Pension matched up to 7.5%
• 120+ learning and development offers, with access to external professional qualifications
