Job description

We are seeking a Programs Manager, Men’s Health Promotion (Young Men - UK) to join our London team.

The Programs Manager, Men’s Health Promotion (Young Men) (this role) is responsible for managing Movember’s men’s health promotion programme across markets, with a focus on young men as the target audience.

Young men can experience distress and marginalisation because of stresses they experience during adolescence, leading to increased risk of poor mental health. This initiative will harness the power of media, partners, and talent online to reach men where they are and engage them with health content that improves their ability to navigate life challenges and live longer, healthier lives.

This role will be responsible for the development, design, and delivery of our global young men’s health promotion programme. It will work closely with and coordinate various internal Movember functions worldwide, including Research, Marketing and Communications, Partnerships, Advocacy, and Measurement, Evaluation and Learning (MEL). The Manager will report to the Director of the Global Men’s Health Promotion Initiative and will line-manage the project coordinator based in the UK.

Over time, the role will also contribute to building Movember’s approach to health promotion, ensuring consistency across markets and portfolios. It will also ensure that lived experience remains central to all young men’s health promotion activities.

This role is part of the Men’s Health (Community & Online) portfolio within the Movember Institute.

For this role, you’ll need:

• 5-7+ years of experience leading creative marketing and media campaigns, ideally health-related, on social media channels
• Knowledge of using communication and media to achieve health behavior change, including designing interventions with behavior change techniques (e.g., the COM-B method)
• Experience building strong relationships with external partners such as creative agencies, research, evaluation, and media organizations
• Ability to work with evidence data and social research to inform program or campaign design
• Effective communication skills across all organizational levels
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to prioritize in a fast-paced environment
• Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines with excellent attention to detail
• Team player attitude
• Adaptability and flexibility
• High self-motivation and initiative
• Willingness to work occasional evenings and participate in global calls (early mornings or late evenings when required)
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook)

Desirable:

• Experience in designing and managing health or social policy programs in a global, matrixed organization
• Experience working directly with content creators and talent managers
• Experience developing health campaigns with subject-matter experts, especially engaging men
• Experience working with youth audiences

Why join Movember?
