Why work with us?
Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men's health charity in the UK.

We have a simple ambition - to stop prostate cancer damaging lives through funding research and supporting men and their families.

We invest millions into research to find better ways to diagnose and treat prostate cancer; we work tirelessly to spread the word about men at risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

Work with us and you'll see your efforts pay off as we fight for a better future for men.

What we offer
Join our team and be part of an award-winning charity. We will support you to develop your skills and expertise.

We offer a competitive benefits package, including:

Generous leave entitlements which increase with service
Enhanced contributory pension scheme
Life insurance and group income protection
Health Cash Plan
Discounted gym membership and high street shopping discounts
Loans for season tickets or cycles
Advice and support on pretty much anything via our Employee Assistance Programme
One 'development day' per month to help training or personal development.

Hybrid working
Our aim is to be a flexible workplace. We want people to be successful, confident, informed, connected to their colleagues and develop in their roles. We usually work from home, with some time each month spent in our London Bridge office.

Office time is usually to collaborate with colleagues (this is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs to the office).

The frequency may vary over the year and is dependent on the needs of the role and the organisation. Space is also available for employees that wish to use the office on a more regular basis.

Our commitment
Our teams, supporters, partners, and those living with prostate cancer, come from all walks of life.

We draw upon the difference in who we are, what we've experienced and how we think to build a future where lives are not limited by prostate cancer.

Not only is it the right thing to do, it makes us stronger and helps us reach more people. If you share our ambition we would love to hear from you.
