We’re looking an Events and Community Fundraising Products Executive to join our Events and Community Team. We’re a results-driven team focused on maximising opportunities, reaching ambitious goals, and delivering an outstanding experience for our supporters.
You’ll help develop and deliver a number of our virtual fundraising products, a programme that consists of The Month Series, Day of Darts, The Big Golf Race and Prostate United. Working across Events and Community Fundraising, Communications, Services and with external partners, you’ll bring colleagues together to keep plans, budgets, income and performance on track.
You’ll shape recruitment campaigns and supporter journeys across email, social media, SMS and WhatsApp, prepare clear briefs, and use data, supporter insight and market knowledge to improve participation, experience and return on investment. You’ll have the opportunity to build on your knowledge of our organisation, strengthen relationships across teams and contribute directly to growing fundraising income and our impact for men affected by prostate cancer.
What we want from you
We’re looking for someone who can plan and deliver fundraising products, campaigns or comparable projects involving several stakeholders. You’ll be organised and comfortable balancing competing priorities, making decisions and meeting deadlines, while building effective relationships with colleagues, suppliers and agencies.
You’ll use data and insight to understand performance, spot issues and recommend practical improvements, and you’ll be confident maintaining accurate records and monitoring expenditure. You’ll also have a strong eye for detail and be able to write clear, motivational communications for different audiences and channels. Most importantly, you’ll care about an excellent and inclusive supporter experience, work collaboratively and actively support our commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion and allyship.
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.

This role is in salary Band 2B, with a starting salary of £29,250 to £32,250 per year on appointment. We aim to pay the median salary for charity the sector. Following 12 months of successful service, colleagues will move to the midpoint of the pay band. The midpoint salary for this role is £34,750.
Our salaries reflect that the London office is our contractual place of work. We also pay a working-from-home allowance at the HMRC tax-free rate of £312 per year.
We are committed to paying at least the London Living Wage for all roles and apply the updated rate each April.
We are a licensed sponsor for Skilled Worker visas, but we have currently exhausted our allocation of Certificates of Sponsorship and are therefore unable to offer sponsorship for the foreseeable future.
Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. 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. To make this happen, we’re dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We’re also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.
We’ve also signed Business in the Community’s Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we’re responsible and accountable for driving positive change.
Our people networks
We’re continuously learning more about the needs of our colleagues, and have three amazing People Networks, sponsored by our Leadership team:
- Pride – A safe space where LGBTQ+ colleagues – and our allies – can share their diverse lived experiences, celebrate LGBTQ+ culture and history, and create new ideas about how our organisation can be more inclusive and representative of LGBTQ+ people
- Mind and Body – Here to increase awareness, promote wellbeing and support colleagues affected by neurodiversity, mental health problems, disability and long-term illness
- Culture Club – Here to increase awareness and celebrate the different cultures and beliefs that we have in the organisation, so that we all have our cultures felt and feel welcomed
How and where we work
Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision‑making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.
Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.
We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.
