We’re looking for a Project Manager to lead and deliver a range of projects that improve services and ways of working across our Services & Partnerships directorate. From initial planning through to completion, you’ll work closely with colleagues, stakeholders, and where appropriate, volunteers and people living with and affected by Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

• Skilled communicator with the ability to engage a range of audiences

About Us:

Our vision is a world free from MND. Our mission is to improve care and support for people with MND, their families and carers. We fund and promote research that leads to new understanding and treatments and brings us closer to a cure for MND. The Association also campaigns and raises awareness so the needs of people with MND, and everyone who cares for them, are recognised, and addressed by wider society.

What We Offer:

• 28 days holiday, increasing to 33 days after 5 years, plus Bank Holidays.
• Access to UK Healthcare, including dental, eyecare, health screenings, and therapies.

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusivity. We work to remove barriers for everyone affected by MND, employees, volunteers, and stakeholders.
