Important information

We have increased the diversity of Frontline’s workforce in the last 12 months, but we need to do more to have greater racialised minority representation in our senior roles. We know the value racialised minority voices bring and therefore, we are strongly encouraging applicants from these backgrounds to apply. We are also a disability confident employer and welcome applicants with disabilities.

We recognise that artificial intelligence (AI) such as ‘ChatGPT’ etc can be useful for applicants e.g. to shorten an initial draft, so we do not attempt to have an absolute ban on AI in applications. However we would caution applicants not to rely too much on AI in drafting answers to application questions. We want to hear your authentic voice arising out of your experience, and we will be looking for answers that use examples and experiences that are specific to you. You are more likely to be able to produce that kind of content yourself than an AI will.

We reserve the right to close this role ahead of the deadline once we reach a suitable number of applications, so please apply as soon as you can!

You will need to have current right-to-work in the UK prior to application and for at least the first six months (for permanent positions) or for the full duration of the contract (for fixed-term positions). Visa sponsorship is not guaranteed.

Our Martech portfolio has an extensive technological estate consisting of a range of products used by our Marketing and Supporter Engagement departments (e.g., Adobe Campaign, Infobip, Taxi for Email, Contentful, Bynder, Graphify, Optimizely, Jotform, and many more).

We are searching for a Technology Martech Transformation Lead to play a pivotal role in leading and managing the digital and data-led transformation of this estate. Your impact will be to help us get the most out of our current estate while shaping and defining the future and long-term product needs of our Martech products. This will involve delivering a multi-stage transformation programme to build our product foundations and shape our new strategy before implementing it. You will help ensure that Cancer Research UK has the right culture, skills, and processes for successful delivery and transformation, while fully owning the strategy and budget for our Martech estate.

This is a newly created role for you to shape, meaning you'll have the opportunity to drive how we deliver this change and its scope. By the end of the programme, your impact will be to have partnered closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation and helped deliver the largest programme of change in the history of the UK charity sector. If you are an experienced Product Technology Leader looking for a purpose-driven and autonomous role, we'd love for you to join our mission.

What will I be doing?

• Leading and motivating your teams, defining culture, acting as a role model, and setting high professional standards for performance and behaviour.

• Leading the implementation of Cancer Research UK's marketing technology transformation. This involves:

  • Setting a vision, strategy, and plan that is strategically aligned, technically viable, and widely understood.

• Defining and ensuring high-quality and fast-paced delivery of product outcomes across our marketing technology transformation.

• Ensuring Cancer Research UK has the right balance of internal capability and external support (e.g., developing culture, coaching and line management, supplier selection and management).

• Managing and being accountable for the Martech budget (this includes leading planning processes).

• Influencing others effectively (including at a senior level) and building internal networks for collaboration and knowledge sharing across the organisation.

• Collaborating with others to ensure that our Martech products are appropriately supported, adhere to SLAs and other operational requirements, and minimise performance risks.

• Ensuring Cancer Research UK's equality and diversity policies are appropriately embedded in all your work.

• Ensuring adherence to all relevant governance across our Martech estate.

What skills will I need?

• An experienced Technology Product or Martech Leader with experience in shaping culture, building teams, and leading through change in large organisations. The leadership behaviours we're looking for are:

  • Emotional intelligence, resilience, and empathy.

  • An inclusive approach to leading and developing digital professionals (this includes supporting career progression, skills development, and leadership coaching).

• Previous experience managing Martech products from within a technology department, with an understanding of technical information security architecture, available technologies, and current trends (not from a user/ marketing department).

• Has balanced user needs, strategic and technical requirements, and operational demand in large, complex organisations with constrained resources.

• Demonstrable understanding of outcome-led decision-making and related ways of working.

• Managed and selected marketing technology suppliers.

• Managed budgets with a focus on affordability and effective ways of working (including external suppliers).

• Strong influencing and relationship-building skills:

  • The ability to persuade and negotiate with stakeholders of all levels, having communicated methodologies and projects to a diverse, non-expert audience who may be sceptical of a user-first or agile approach.

  • Effective at collaborating and forming relationships across boundaries and locations.

• Implemented robust information security and data protection controls.

Our organisation values are designed to guide all that we do.

Bold: Act with ambition, courage and determination

Credible: Act with rigour and professionalism

Human: Act to have a positive impact on people

Together: Act inclusively and collaboratively

We're looking for people who can believe in and embody these organisation values and can use them to drive forward progress against our mission to beat cancer.

If you're interested in applying and excited about working with us but are unsure if you have the right skills and experience we'd still love to hear from you.

What will I gain?

We create a working environment that supports your wellbeing and provide a generous benefits package, a wide range of career and personal development opportunities and high-quality tools.

About Julie’s Bicycle

Julie’s Bicycle (JB) is a pioneering not-for-profit organisation, mobilising the arts and culture to take action on the climate, nature and justice crisis. Founded by the music industry in 2007 and now working across the arts and culture, JB has partnered with over 2000 organisations in the UK and internationally. Combining cultural and environmental expertise, JB delivers high impact programmes and policy change to meet the climate crisis head-on.

Our work includes leadership development, policy development, research, strategic partnerships, in-depth consultancy, training, and a range of ground-breaking projects. A commitment to climate justice underpins all our work. We provide the creative community with the full range of tools, knowledge, and inspiration to act, and we run a rich programme of events and advocacy. JB runs a set of closely connected programmes of different types, lengths and scales. From our Music Programme to our Creative Climate Leadership Programme; our work across the cultural sector through Creative Green Projects and Partnerships; to our partnership with Arts Council England, explore our work.

This is an exciting time to join a team of 22 employees and additional external associates who, together, represent a unique mix of arts, culture, scientific, environmental and digital expertise.

We encourage people from any background to apply for this post. We are committed to creating a workforce which is representative of our society, and to bringing together those with a variety of skills and experiences to help shape what we do and how we work. We are particularly keen to hear from people of colour and those who self-identify as disabled.

Our Partnership with Arts Council England:

Julie’s Bicycle works with Arts Council England to deliver an ambitious Environmental Programme, providing resources, tools, and training to support cultural organisations to take climate action. The programme empowers the sector to rise to the challenges the climate crisis presents, and to accelerate and scale a collective response. Through the programme JB supports organisations to report their environmental impacts; produces events, webinars and information briefings, and runs a series of programme strands that develop climate literacy and leadership. Find out more.

A key part of the programme is JB’s Creative Climate Tools (CC Tools). These are a free carbon calculator that enables arts and cultural organisations to track their impact, record progress and make strategic changes in their environmental action. They include our unique Beyond Carbon impact tracker. Launched in 2010, the Creative Climate Tools are globally recognised as the leading online environmental reporting tools designed specifically for the arts and culture sector.

Our Partnership with IMPALA (European organisation for independent music companies and national associations):

We have been a key partner supporting IMPALA’s environmental sustainability programme since its launch in 2021. We helped shape the IMPALA Climate Charter and continue to sit on the IMPALA Environmental Sustainability Taskforce, where we provide expert advice on what a future low carbon recorded music sector could look like and how we get there. In 2022 we launched the IMPALA Carbon Calculator, powered by the CC Tools platform, a world-first bespoke platform for the SME record labels that are members of IMPALA to measure and report their GHG emissions. Over 150 independent labels have started their carbon footprint journey on the Tools, helping to shape an understanding of industry climate impact ‘hot spots’ and priorities, as well as bringing together stories of change. Alongside this, we deliver climate literacy and climate action training for and with IMPALA’s members across Europe, working to mobilise the independent recorded music sector for climate action. Find out more.

The Opportunity

The Environmental Coordinator plays a vital role within Julie’s Bicycle: both supporting creative organisations to report their environmental impacts with confidence, and analysing the data to support our team’s understanding of impact hotspots, priorities, challenges and opportunities for different creative sectors. The role focuses on providing Helpdesk support, as the first point of contact for organisations using our Creative Climate Tools (in particular organisations working with us through our Arts Council Programme and Music Programme, especially our IMPALA partnership). The Tools measure carbon emissions and organisational commitment to wider environmental improvement. Beyond answering queries, you’ll be shaping training webinars and materials for the organisations using the Tools. You’ll also be involved in the collective reporting and storytelling back to the creative community and wider stakeholders on what the data (both qualitative and quantitative) is telling us. Alongside the Helpdesk you will support Julie’s Bicycle to keep up to date on new methodologies and evolving best practices in carbon reporting and sustainability standards, and be involved in the development of the Tools platform.

The successful candidate will enjoy being in contact with many of the people and organisations that Julie’s Bicycle works with day-to-day, develop a frontline understanding of how creative organisations (especially SMEs) are understanding and managing their climate impacts, and dig into the environmental impact data of arts and culture organisations around the world. You will be data savvy, understand carbon footprint calculation methodologies, including the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, and be familiar with how organisations can manage environmental impacts across areas such as energy, waste, water, procurement, travel. You’ll be able to communicate really well – whether you are helping a cultural organisation or music label with a query; demonstrating the tools or how to use data on a webinar; or writing up a case study.

When not running the Helpdesk, you will be happy to test new features on the Tools, contribute to the development of our methodology, and research latest developments in best practice. You’ll proactively solve things yourself but be comfortable with escalating issues to more senior Julie’s Bicycle staff where needed – providing information to support decision-making. And in return, you’ll be supported to develop your skills and knowledge by the wider team. If you have a basic foundation in environmental management knowledge this role is a great opportunity to develop deeper skills in environmental consultancy and carbon accounting. The successful candidate will gain hands-on experience and join our friendly team in regular shared-learning sessions. And of course you’ll be interested in the role of culture in taking action on the climate, nature and justice crisis.

As time allows, this might include support for online JB events, surveys, research support on relevant environmental topics, and working proactively across teams to support as needs emerge, contributing ideas and solutions in wider JB internal meetings.

Experience and Skills

We know that capable candidates sometimes rule themselves out of applying for roles because they’re worried they don’t quite fit all the requirements, or because they’ve gained their skills in a different context (e.g. volunteering, working in community groups, etc).

– Excited about helping non-environmental specialists take action.

How to Apply

If you’d like to apply, please complete the application form and equal opportunities monitoring form and submit these by 11.59pm on Sunday 23rd March 2025.

Please note, this post is open to people who already have the right to live and work in the UK, as Julie’s Bicycle is not currently in a position to sponsor a work visa.

A note on AI:

While we understand that some people may use AI tools for accessibility (and recognise and support that many assistive technologies may use elements of AI), we ask candidates to consider what tools are most appropriate during the application process. For example, we recognise the value for many people of machine learning language tools like Grammarly. On the other hand we would discourage the use of generative AI tools in writing your application, as we’d like to understand your personal interest in working for Julie’s Bicycle, and be able to understand your non-AI-assisted communication skills just as they are. We also recognise that for many of the people and creative communities we work with, the rise of generative AI poses a threat to their livelihoods, while the environmental impacts of AI are only set to grow: this means we also have a responsibility as Julie’s Bicycle to consider where and when (and if) we use AI in our work.

Thank you for your interest in working at Julie’s Bicycle.

This role is 3,4, or 5dpw, so flexible and requires someone to cover the following:

The Social Media Manager creates, publishes, and reports on engaging content across the organisations social media channels, to help us grow their community and tell great stories about the arts establishments in their network.

You'll deliver performance reporting for their monthly team and departmental KPIs, plus ad-hoc analysis and insight as needed.
