As a Research and Insight Executive, your role will play a crucial role, supporting our ambitious high value fundraising strategy and will be pivotal in the development of Prostate Cancer UK’s first Major Appeal. You’ll be identifying new prospecting and senior volunteer opportunities and providing insights to the high value teams.

You'll identify and research potential donors, creating detailed profiles to inform engagement strategies. You'll also develop strategic relationships and access routes to prospective supporters.

Your analytical skills will be essential for conducting financial and data analysis to inform our decision-making and strategy development. Additionally, you'll play a key role in streamlining workflows and enhancing efficiency by developing and implementing new processes.

What we want from you

We’re looking for a curious, organised and enthusiastic person to work with our high value fundraisers to support them with research and insight on new and existing funding opportunities to support our ambitious growth plans. 

As well as conducting research and creating research profiles, you’ll work closely with the Research and Insight Manager to implement new prospect research processes and ways of working to maximise the effectiveness of our high value fundraising programme. You’ll also run finance and KPI data reports for the Head of Philanthropy, Head of Appeal and Head of Partnerships to ensure that we have an understanding of fundraising performance.

You’ll have experience of proactive prospecting, creating research profiles and network maps. You’ll also have knowledge of high value fundraising principals. You’ll have excellent relationship building skills.

This is a rewarding role where you'll be working closely with high value fundraisers to ensure they have the right opportunities and insights to build mutually beneficial, long-term relationships with supporters and ultimately, grow income to fund transformational work and achieve impact for men.

Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

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

Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion

At Prostate Cancer UK, we believe that equity, diversity and inclusion are essential to building a strong and innovative workplace, that represents, and can advocate for the communities we support. We stand against discrimination and prejudice, and we champion tolerance, fairness and equality in everything we do. This makes us stronger and helps us reach more people. We’re all here for the same reason: to give every man the power to navigate prostate cancer.

We're committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men who are at double risk. 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.

Therefore, we’re particularly interested in applications from those from marginalised and vulnerable communities. This will help us create an environment of inclusion where everyone can bring their authentic selves to work, where personal qualities are as important as professional experience, and our people feel seen and heard.

Ways of working

Our hybrid working approach combines the best of flexible working – a positive work/life balance, inclusive and accessible platforms, and online information at our fingertips.

Job Description

The Jewish Museum London has undergone substantial positive change over the past year, moving out of our Camden site and moving to a ‘Museum without Walls’ model. With new leadership installed at both lay and staff levels and a consultation process about to begin for the development of a five and fifteen-year strategy the Museum is looking for a new member of the team to assist our new CEO, Sally Angel, as she works to deliver a new vision for the Museum.

Our museum is made up of passionate and expert staff and a collection of over 40,000 objects which are both accredited and designated with Outstanding status by Arts Council England. Our learning programmes hold multiple awards, and our visitor feedback is consistently very high, however, we have much bigger ambitions than our current success. The Museum is looking to expand, in space, in profile and in audience reach. We are looking for someone passionate about our potential to assist the CEO and the wider team as we move forward to the next phase of the Jewish Museum London.

Reporting to the CEO, the appointed candidate will have the organisational and administrative skills to ensure the CEO and SLT can efficiently run the Museum as well as provide general administrative support to the office.
