Due to their experiences it takes time to gain trust from the young people in our community. As a core member of our team, you will understand the impact of specific human rights abuses on the development of children and young people in exile and their individual experiences of loss, trauma and grief on their mental health and well-being. 

Baobab’s Model: Please read the accompanying ‘Baobab Context and Model’ document for a detailed introduction.

You’ll have a good knowledge of SQL and data transformation. Experience of not-for-profit data from both a user and technical perspective would be an advantage.

You'll be a strong communicator, comfortable with communicating complex technical information to a non-technical audience face to face or via documentation and have experience of developing good relationships with people at all levels of the organisation. You’ll be able to map and optimise a process from start to finish and take people with you as you do. You’ll be a strong people person, proactive and collaborative and work well under pressure in a busy, dynamic team in a fast-paced environment. You are a true problem solver with an agile mindset.

Why work with us?

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.
