About The Role

About Alzheimer's Society - who are we and what's our mission?

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

About the opportunity

We are looking for two driven Fundraising Innovation Officers to join our thriving innovation team.

This exciting and varied role will work on everything from improving our flagship fundraisers to designing new products from scratch. You will be involved in innovation cycles from beginning to end, including research, facilitating workshops and supporting teams in testing and implementation. As part of a busy team of innovators, you'll get to test and learn, incorporate cutting edge ideas and see a real impact of your work. You'll also give advice and support to help others to innovate.

About you

This might be your first role focused solely on innovation, but you've been involved in innovation and know how innovation processes can help us achieve our goals.

You're a keen problem solver and project manager with the enthusiasm to champion innovation across the organisation. Ideally you would have experience in facilitating or at least participating in workshops. You're results orientated and take the initiative in learning and driving work forward.

Above all, you're open to trying new things and adapting your approach based on what you learn.

You are:

A keen problem solver and a flexible thinker who can adapt their approach as they learn
Enthusiastic about innovation with a clear understanding of the benefits it can bring
A strong project manager who can juggle multiple priorities

What you'll focus on:

Working to improve our existing fundraising products
Supporting and leading product development sprints to design new products from scratch.
Giving advice on workshops, testing and research

Interviews will be held on the 15th and 16th July.

About You

About Alzheimer's Society

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society.

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a DBS check at the relevant level.

Giving back to you

Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
