About working for us
This is a fast-paced and growing organisation that is really committed to making a difference. Being a part of our team is being
part of a thriving, positive, dynamic, successful, and welcoming community that is making an impact. We will support you and

About us
Pancreatic cancer is a tough one but we're taking it on. It is tough to diagnose, tough to treat, and tough to research. For too
long this disease has been side-lined. We want to make sure that everyone affected by it gets all the help they need. Together we
are taking on pancreatic cancer. Underpinning this vision are our three values:
* Courageous
* Collaborative
* Compassion
We cannot achieve our vision without employing people who are committed to our vision, strategy, and values.
At Pancreatic Cancer UK (PCUK) our ambition is to create an inclusive working environment that reflects the communities and
audiences that we engage with and where everyone can be their true selves, where they feel respected, championed, heard, and
supported. We want our workforce to achieve their potential, understand their contribution and feel proud of their impact by
creating a culture and organisation that is genuinely inclusive by advancing equality, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through
our policies and practices.
We believe diversity drives great outcomes by encouraging the different points of view that come from a diverse workforce. We want
to hear from and engage with people whose experience of dealing with this disease may be very different depending on their
individual circumstances and background. We can think of no better way to do this than by making sure this role fully represents
our intent; therefore, we are especially keen to consider applications from suitable applicants who consider themselves to be in
areas that appear underrepresented within the charity sector.
Safeguarding
PCUK is committed to safe and fair recruitment processes that safeguard and protect those we work with, support and serve. We make
sure all our staff are selected, vetted (DBS/Criminal record checks where appropriate), trained, and supervised fairly and to a
high standard so that they can provide safe, effective and compassionate care. Where we work with volunteers, we extend the same
support in order to ensure that they are working within our ethos and standards.
