Are you looking for a new challenge in a dynamic and supportive team? Do you have an eye for detail? Can you work collaboratively and manage multiple priorities?

We are looking for someone to join our Communications Team to support our email marketing, website work and data collection. Applicants will have a can-do attitude and be comfortable collaborating across teams, learning new systems and processes, and prioritising a variety of tasks. This is the perfect role for someone who has:

• Excellent IT skills and a motivation to learn new skills and processes
• Experience of working in administration, digital, marketing or communications
• Strong organisational expertise with the ability to juggle multiple priorities 
• Great teamwork and a desire to help us learn and improve.

Lymphoma Action is the UK’s only charity dedicated to lymphoma, the UK’s fifth most common cancer. We’ve been providing expert information and wide-ranging support for more than 35 years, helping thousands of people affected by lymphoma.

We have developed a great working culture that focuses on our key values, as well as prioritising a creative, inclusive and supportive environment. Staff receive excellent benefits such as an Employee Assistance Programme, flexible working, generous holiday entitlement, enhanced entitlements to sick pay and maternity leave.

This is a hybrid role, benefitting from a blend of home-based and office-based working in Aylesbury. The postholder will need to be in the office during induction, for the purposes of role-specific training, meetings with colleagues and learning about your role and the charity. Once induction and training are complete, ideally the postholder will spend part of each week at the office.

Join us and be part of a national cancer charity that’s been providing information, support and connection to people affected by lymphoma for more than 35 years.
