Imagine not being able to move, sleep, or smile. Feeling anxious or depressed and struggling to think or remember. Your body not feeling like your own. This is what Parkinson's can feel like. 

Every hour, two people in the UK are told they have Parkinson's - a brain condition that turns lives upside down, leaving a future full of uncertainty. 

Parkinson's UK is an ambitious and dynamic charity, passionate about improving the lives of everyone affected by Parkinson's?  

We are working towards bringing forward the day that no-one fears Parkinson's, and our pace and determination is stronger than ever. Join us! 

About the role  

We are pulling together a new and exciting cross functional design team at Parkinson's UK to help shape and develop a new service pathway for people with Parkinson's from diagnosis onwards.

Crucial to the success of this pioneering work is the use of data and insight to drive key decisions and provide a personalised and tailored experience for people affected by Parkinson's. This role offers a unique opportunity for someone passionate about data and it's potential to drive innovation and change.

As a member of the core service design team, you'll lead on managing the analysis and insight work from briefing to delivery, using data to create a compelling evidence base that informs the design of new services. You'll source, extract and interpret data and lead on ensuring it's of a high quality and accuracy.

You'll also lead on ensuring we're measuring and reporting on the core outputs of the project, identifying where things are going well, and where we need to improve.

What you'll do?  

Lead on the management of data analysis on the team, interpreting data to answer questions and create recommendations for the team

Identify where we have gaps in data and develop strategies for filling those gaps

Develop a measurement and reporting framework for the project which will hold the team accountable to core outputs

You'll play a key role in... 

A key workstream in the 2020-24 strategy which is a new, tailored and streamlined service pathway for people living with Parkinson's, their carers, friends and family. The vision is "A first class service for people with Parkinson's built on data and insights to provide proactive, personalised information and support through telephone and digital channels wherever appropriate, targeting additional face to face services at those with more complex needs " 

Parkinson's UK is establishing a dedicated team, with people living with Parkinson's embedded in it, to deliver on this vision and to design and develop a minimal viable product of the end-to-end journey and ultimately build, scale and embed the validated service pathway into business-as-usual operations. 

What you'll bring 

You'll be driven by curiosity and a passion to provide the best support possible for people affected by Parkinson's.

You'll have proven working experience of working in data manipulation, analysis, visualisation and reporting.  You'll be organised, self-driven and able to juggle several different priorities and thrive working in a fast-paced environment.
