Job Description

We’re really excited to offer this opportunity to join our small, friendly team and help shape the future of support for people affected by cancer. You’ll help us bring a brand-new service to life for patients, their families and friends, while also developing support that works for our clinical colleagues and their teams. We’ve spent the past year listening carefully to what people need. Now we’re ready to turn those ideas into action—and we’d love you to be part of it.

You’ll have a real opportunity to build on the support we already offer, bring your own ideas and help make this new approach a success.

We’re looking for someone who is organised, approachable and genuinely enjoys helping people. You’ll be a confident communicator who can use your initiative, work independently and keep a clear head when things get busy. You’ll also need administrative experience, strong IT skills and a good eye for detail. Above all, you’ll be a kind and compassionate listener who can help patients and carers find the information and support that is right for them.

If this sounds like the role for you, please take a look at the Job Description and addendum to find out more about what you’ll be doing.

We’d be delighted to welcome you for a visit before interview. It’s a great chance to meet the team & see what we do.
