Fixed Term - Maternity Cover

Home based/Nationwide - We really don't mind. Working anywhere in the UK from home would be fine. Or, when things are more normal, there is potential to be based in our Bristol Office. There may be occasional travel to Bristol or London involved.

At CLIC Sargent we are One Team with One Target. It is our mission to ensure that everyone under 25 with cancer, and their families, get the support they need to thrive, not just survive.  We fight tirelessly to stop cancer destroying young lives and we strive to improve the services we deliver to children, young people and their families.

This really is an important time to be joining Team CLIC Sargent. Children, young people and families need our support more than ever at the moment, and next year will see the re-launch of our strategy so we can make sure we are doing the most important things during these tough times. The Programme Manager will join our Project Management Office, here in the Strategy and Governance team and help deliver on our promise to support young people and their families to limit the damage cancer causes beyond their health.

If you love project management, or here at CLIC Sargent we simply call it ‘getting stuff done' then you'll love the role of the Programme Manager. With no two days the same, we are looking for an experienced project or programme manager who loves working on a variety of projects at pace. This role will give you the opportunity to focus on getting the right things done at the right time.

In order to do this you'll need to be an excellent communicator and influencer with senior stakeholders and frontline staff from the across the charity. And you'll need to be able to measure how we are doing and find ways of delivering projects as effectively as possible.  On top of this you will be passionate about driving best practice in project management across the organisation so everyone can work this way. This will mean you'll be a trend setter in learning and improving how we ‘do' project management at CLIC Sargent and won't shy away from understanding when things go wrong.

If this sounds like you then join Team CLIC Sargent!

What we offer:

In return for your commitment, we offer a great reward package, which includes generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme and season ticket loan.

We are always looking for talented people from all backgrounds, to join us and help improve the lives of children and young people with cancer and their families. We particularly want to encourage people from under-represented groups to step forward and apply to work or volunteer with CLIC Sargent.

CLIC Sargent is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment.
