Hybrid Working - Required 2 days per month in London
A Charity that is making a genuine difference across the UK
About Our Client
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.
