The role
We’re seeking an Individual Giving Officer to join our creative and fast paced Individual Giving team! This is a great opportunity
for someone looking to take their first step into a career in Individual Giving fundraising, or to expand your existing knowledge
into more areas of Individual Giving in a varied role.
This is an exciting time to join Pancreatic Cancer UK. With an ambitious five-year strategy to double both our income and survival
rates, Individual Giving are a key focus in achieving this goal, so you’ll play an important role in acquiring and stewarding
donors – helping ensure that everyone with pancreatic cancer can live long and well. We’re passionate about delivering it, but we

* Supporting on the delivery of acquisition and retention campaigns and optimising supporter journeys for our priority audiences
across a range of channels including digital, direct mail and telemarketing.
* Ensuring we meet our ambitious income targets by supporting on key income streams including regular giving, in memory, cash,
gaming and the online shop.
* Developing and maintaining strong relationships with internal teams and external suppliers.
* Support the team with key administrative processes to ensure effective stewardship of our supporters.
About You
* Previous experience in an Individual Giving role or similar fundraising position, with a good working knowledge of fundraising
best practice having supported on a range of campaigns.
* Can work on multiple tasks and projects simultaneously, managing conflicting deadlines and being proactive in raising risks and
concerns.
* Ability to work cross team, building effective relationships with internal teams and external suppliers.
* Strong communication skills when liaising with supporters to provide an audience first experience.
If this sounds like you – we’d love to hear from you!
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
develop you should you wish this, and you get the opportunity to be involved in activities outside the scope of your immediate
role. We care about your health and well-being and your work-life balance, and you will feel that your contribution is valued and
matters.
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.
Hybrid-working:
Our London office is a place to connect, collaborate and celebrate with colleagues, we recognise that flexibility around where you
work is just as important. We are currently working hybrid with a minimum of 1 day in the office per week for this role. This is
an office-based role where you may be required to be in the office more frequently to attend the activities and meetings depending
on the needs of the role.
How to apply
* You can download the Job Description and Person Specification for full details of the role. If you have any questions about
this role that we’ve not answered, please get in touch with Danielle Morgan at Danielle.Morgan@pancreaticcancer.org.uk.
* To apply, please complete the online application form, setting out why you are interested in the role and how you meet the
person specification criteria. This information will be used to select candidates for interviews.
* You will need to have the right to work in the UK as we are not able to provide sponsorship for this role.
* Please note that interviews will be held remotely between 8th – 12th September 2025
No agencies/sales call please – as a charity we work hard to keep our costs down and therefore will not be engaging agencies to
support this recruitment.
