The Education Team at Prostate Cancer UK delivers high-quality education for health professionals involved in prostate cancer care, supporting their development through face-to-face and online engagement, regular clinical updates and collaborative work across the organisation.

You’ll help organise and deliver healthcare professional education events and conferences across the UK, working closely with colleagues and external partners to ensure everything runs smoothly. You’ll also provide support to our digital communications, helping to build our marketing emails, healthcare professionals webpages and social media, so our work reaches the right audience. Alongside this, you’ll provide essential day-to-day support to the team. This includes coordinating meetings and events, managing inbox enquiries, arranging travel, handling financial processes and keeping our systems and processes up to date. You’ll also help track and report on our impact, and lead on projects like the People’s Choice Award. It’s a varied role where you’ll work flexibly across teams, contributing to meaningful work that improves care for people affected by prostate cancer.

• Highly organised and able to manage multiple priorities, using initiative to keep work moving forward.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, along with a good eye for detail to ensure accuracy and consistency across your work.
• Comfortable working with systems and processes, including maintaining spreadsheets, monitoring data and supporting financial activities.

• Ability to build and maintain professional working relationships with colleagues and external suppliers.
• Able to work collaboratively across teams and adapt to changing priorities where needed.
• An interest in supporting healthcare professionals and improving outcomes for men affected by prostate cancer.
• Experience in, or understanding of, the health or voluntary sector would be beneficial, but isn’t essential.

• 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.

This role is in salary Band 2A and is paid at the London Living Wage, currently £14.80 or £28,860 per year. After 12 months of successful service, there will be a small increase to the midpoint of the band. We also pay a working-from-home allowance at the HMRC tax-free rate of £312 per year. We are committed to paying at least the London Living Wage for all roles and apply the updated rate each April.

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 Community’s 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.

How and where we work:

Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro-rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs. Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues. We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.
