About PVRI

PVRI is a small charity with a global reach. Our aim is to reduce the global burden of Pulmonary Vascular Disease (PVD) with a particular focus on Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) - a life-threatening and life-limiting condition that affects millions worldwide. 

PH can lead to heart damage and trigger symptoms like breathlessness, chest pain, poor growth, and severe difficulties exercising and carrying out normal daily tasks. Diagnosis and care aren’t readily available in many parts of the world, and even when it is, PH treatment can itself be challenging and life-changing. Although it’s estimated that PH affects 1% of the global population, it isn’t widely recognised or well-understood.

To change that, we bring together a fantastic network of energetic and committed PH doctors, academics, regulators, patients, and industry partners. Together we’re identifying and addressing the key challenges in global PH, educating the global workforce, and encouraging research. In practical terms, we:

• Host international scientific conferences
• Produce an open-access peer reviewed PH journal, Pulmonary Circulation
• Run webinars and e-learning
• Raise awareness of PH and health inequalities, and advocate for better access to diagnosis, care and treatment - nationally and internationally
• Bring our members and networks together in working forums:
  •  ​The Innovative Drug Development Initiative (IDDI): eight multidisciplinary workstreams working to solve the challenges in PVD research and speed the development of new treatment
  • Specialty Task Forces: groups working to advance understanding and improve practice in specific clinical areas of PH
  • Regional Task Forces: working in-country to address the key regional and national challenges in PH

We are a London-based registered charity and limited company, governed by an international Board of Trustees and supported by a new Scientific and Medical Advisory Council.

Our turnover is c. £800k p.a. and our income comes from industry support, membership fees and charitable fundraising. 

Our small friendly staff team comprises our CEO Karen, Head of Comms Debs, Marketing Officer Emily, Project Coordinator Sarah and Admin Manager Katie, supported by our freelance Finance Manager Steph. We work a flexible hybrid model, with office space in Work.Life, close to London Bridge and Borough Market.

In terms of our values, we’re open, inclusive and easy to engage with, and we’re

ambitious for ourselves and for the global PVD community.

About the Role

The aim of this role is to help the charity run smoother, faster, cheaper and better. The Ops Manager will identify areas for operational efficiency, design and implement new systems and processes, manage digital systems, streamline workflows, and help ensure compliance with charitable and regulatory requirements.
