You'll manage the development and delivery of monitoring and evaluation frameworks for our Health Equity, Services and Improvement directorate, ensuring we can track our progress against Prostate Cancer UK's new strategy with confidence. As part of the Data and Evidence team, you'll bring together data and insight to tell a clear story about our impact for men and the wider healthcare system. In this role, you'll design practical, meaningful ways to measure success, from shaping our key performance indicators to strengthening how we collect and use data over time. You'll draw on information from multiple sources to build a joined-up view of our activity, and use clear, engaging data visualisation to bring your findings to life. You'll also support reporting to boards and committees, presenting evidence in a way that is accessible, relevant and supports good decision-making. You'll work closely with colleagues across the organisation, helping them evaluate their work and feel more confident using data in their day-to-day roles. By championing a culture of evidence-based decision making and continuous learning, you'll help teams see the value of monitoring and evaluation and use it to improve what they do. Alongside this, you'll keep a strong overview of activity across the directorate, using data and insight to spot trends, highlight opportunities and drive improvements. You'll also contribute to the ongoing development of our data and insight approach, helping us strengthen the quality, consistency and impact of how we evaluate and report on our work.

You'll be skilled at evaluating public health or similar programmes, with a strong understanding of impact measurement and the ability to work with both qualitative and quantitative data.

You'll be comfortable designing surveys and using a range of data collection techniques, alongside a good understanding of UK health data sources. Just as importantly, you'll be able to communicate complex findings in a clear and engaging way, helping others understand what the data is telling us and why it matters. You'll be well organised, with strong project management and stakeholder engagement skills, able to manage multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and attention to detail. You'll enjoy working collaboratively across teams, building strong relationships and supporting colleagues to use data with confidence in their day-to-day work. If you're motivated by using evidence to drive meaningful change and want to help shape how impact is measured across the organisation, we'd love to hear from you. Why work with us? Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men - prostate cancer. It's a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year. Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men's health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition - to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We're blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease. Work with us and you'll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer. Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion At Prostate Cancer UK we're committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We'll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally. We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities.

£36,250 - £42,500 per year Permanent, full-time (37.5 hours per week) Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office What the job involves As Senior Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, you'll play a central role in helping us understand and demonstrate the real difference our work makes. You'll manage the development and delivery of monitoring and evaluation frameworks for our Health Equity, Services and Improvement directorate, ensuring we can track our progress against Prostate Cancer UK's new strategy with confidence. As part of the Data and Evidence team, you'll bring together data and insight to tell a clear story about our impact for men and the wider healthcare system. In this role, you'll design practical, meaningful ways to measure success, from shaping our key performance indicators to strengthening how we collect and use data over time. You'll draw on information from multiple sources to build a joined-up view of our activity, and use clear, engaging data visualisation to bring your findings to life. You'll also support reporting to boards and committees, presenting evidence in a way that is accessible, relevant and supports good decision-making. You'll work closely with colleagues across the organisation, helping them evaluate their work and feel more confident using data in their day-to-day roles. By championing a culture of evidence-based decision making and continuous learning, you'll help teams see the value of monitoring and evaluation and use it to improve what they do. Alongside this, you'll keep a strong overview of activity across the directorate, using data and insight to spot trends, highlight opportunities and drive improvements. You'll also contribute to the ongoing development of our data and insight approach, helping us strengthen the quality, consistency and impact of how we evaluate and report on our work. What we want from you You'll bring strong expertise in monitoring, evaluation and learning, with experience of applying approaches such as theory of change, outcome harvesting and logic models in practice. You'll be skilled at evaluating public health or similar programmes, with a strong understanding of impact measurement and the ability to work with both qualitative and quantitative data. Experience in data visualisation is important, and familiarity with tools like Tableau or Power BI would be a bonus. You'll be comfortable designing surveys and using a range of data collection techniques, alongside a good understanding of UK health data sources. Just as importantly, you'll be able to communicate complex findings in a clear and engaging way, helping others understand what the data is telling us and why it matters. You'll be well organised, with strong project management and stakeholder engagement skills, able to manage multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and attention to detail. You'll enjoy working collaboratively across teams, building strong relationships and supporting colleagues to use data with confidence in their day-to-day work. If you're motivated by using evidence to drive meaningful change and want to help shape how impact is measured across the organisation, we'd love to hear from you. Why work with us? Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men - prostate cancer. It's a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year. Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men's health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition - to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We're blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease. Work with us and you'll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer. Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion At Prostate Cancer UK we're committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We'll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally. We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change. How and where we work Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs. Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues. We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.
