What the job involves
Join our dynamic People and Culture team as Head of People - Learning, Engagement, and Experience! In this strategic role, you'll provide leadership across Prostate Cancer UK, focusing on people and volunteer experience with a people-centred approach. You'll help develop and deliver inclusive, dynamic people development and culture strategies to drive employee engagement, upskill our people, and manage internal and volunteer communications, ensuring our continued growth.
You'll lead teams specialising in learning, engagement, and volunteer experience. You'll develop and ensure the successful implementation of a learning and development strategy that aligns with the strategic and operational capability needs of the charity. You'll design and deliver a series of interventions that develop our senior leaders, colleagues, and volunteers, enhancing our capability to deliver our strategy. You'll continuously review and evaluate People Experience and Culture activities to ensure they remain relevant to changing organisational needs and are aligned with other support functions and operational strategies.
Directing the development and implementation of a strategic internal communications plan, you’ll ensure all colleagues and volunteers are connected to our work, reinforcing our values and culture. You'll own the cycle of gaining feedback from colleagues and volunteers and drive the action planning process to ensure that progress and improvements are achieved.
Working across Directorates, you'll ensure a consistent people and volunteer experience. You'll guide the design and management of systems and processes that deliver a great experience, ensuring all interventions are measured and evaluated effectively, building learning into subsequent activities.
You'll coach and develop your team to achieve fantastic results and progress their skills and capabilities. Additionally, you'll build strong collaborative working relationships across our senior leadership team and work with an in-depth network of external suppliers and partners to support the delivery of our work.
What we want from you
An experienced people leader, you’ll have a proven track record of developing and delivering impactful People Experience and Culture strategies, including learning and leadership development interventions, ideally within the charity or not-for-profit sector. You're both a strategic and operational thinker and leader, able to articulate clear aims and rationale to shape longer-term plans and see them through to operational delivery.
With experience in leading strategic internal communications, you're attuned to the changing world around us and understand how this could enhance or derail our People strategies. Passionate about organisational development, you’ll have a solid understanding of the employee lifecycle and can demonstrate your contribution to developing culture and improving people experience as well as volunteer experience interventions.
Your exceptional interpersonal and communication skills allow you to operate and manage comfortably in a multicultural and multistakeholder organisation. As a natural relationship builder, you’ll work collaboratively, balancing operational and strategic responsibilities. You're also at ease presenting to the Leadership Team or the Board. You're someone who easily connects with people from a range of backgrounds, putting our people at the heart of everything you and your team do.
Ideally, you hold a recognised qualification in organisational development, learning and development, or human resources (CIPD), or an Internal Communications accreditation (IoIC accredited Diploma or CIPR diploma), or equivalent work experience.
These are the skills and types of experience you’ll need for this role – but we know skills and experience can be developed. If you think you can do most of this, and are excited by our work, we want to hear from you.
Why work with us?

Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.
