We’re looking for a Product Manager to help shape and grow compelling fundraising and engagement propositions that inspire audiences, deepen supporter relationships and deliver long-term value for the charity.

Working collaboratively across Marketing, Fundraising & Engagement and with a wide range of stakeholders, you’ll use audience insight, innovation and commercial thinking to develop and optimise products and experiences that support our mission.

While this role will work across a broad portfolio, it will also have a particular focus on supporting the development and growth of our events fundraising products, helping create engaging experiences that motivate people to take action and raise vital funds for life‑saving research.

What will I be doing?

• Supporting the development and delivery of the product strategy for our events fundraising portfolio, creating experiences that attract, engage and retain supporters.
• Working with the Senior Proposition Manager to create and implement innovative, audience‑led product and proposition plans that drive long‑term growth.
• Collaborating across Marketing, Digital, Technology, Data & Insights and Strategy teams to deliver seamless supporter journeys and compelling campaigns.
• Using audience insight, market trends and performance data to identify opportunities for product improvement, innovation and growth.
• Helping shape product roadmaps and priorities to ensure propositions are continuously optimised and future‑focused.
• Building strong stakeholder relationships and fostering a collaborative culture that drives shared ownership and successful outcomes

What are we looking for?

• Experience developing and managing commercially successful products, services or propositions that meet audience needs and deliver measurable results.
• Strong understanding of product development, customer journeys, proposition management and insight‑led decision making.
• Experience working with products, services or experiences and using data to identify opportunities and drive growth.
• Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across complex organisations.
• Strong strategic, analytical and commercial thinking, with the ability to translate insight into action.
• A proactive, resilient and creative problem solver who thrives in a fast‑paced environment.

Our organisation values are designed to guide all that we do.

Bold: Act with ambition, courage and determination

Credible: Act with rigour and professionalism

Human : Act to have a positive impact on people

Together: Act inclusively and collaboratively

We’re looking for people who can believe in and embody these organisation values and can use them to drive forward progress against our mission to beat cancer.
