Although we are a small organisation, we have ambitious goals to educate, support, and drive progress in the field of prostate cancer and disease throughout Scotland. Based in central Edinburgh, we provide essential information and guidance to men and their families affected by the most common cancer in men.
As a dynamic and fast-growing charity, we are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Patient Research Coordinator to help us make a lasting impact. Join our committed team and be part of the positive change in men’s health across Scotland!
About the role
As our Patient Research and Policy Coordinator, you’ll be at the forefront of Prostate Scotland’s efforts to amplify the voices of men with prostate disease, shaping impactful research and policy to transform lives. Based in our Edinburgh office, you’ll design and lead research programmes, conducting surveys, focus groups, and interviews to capture the perspectives and needs of men, their families, and carers across Scotland. You’ll develop mechanisms to ensure patient views inform our work, collaborating with the CEO to craft policy solutions and advocate for change with key audiences.
You’ll work closely with our team and Board, liaising with support groups and representing Prostate Scotland at external events, delivering talks and training on prostate health. Staying abreast of research and policy trends, you’ll produce bulletins and briefings, collaborating with our Information and Advice Manager to keep our materials current. You’ll build networks with health policy and research organisations, monitor developments, and highlight critical issues to our leadership, ensuring our mission remains responsive and influential.
We seek a passionate, collaborative individual with strong research, analytical, and communication skills, and a commitment to health equity. Experience in research, policy, or charity work is desirable. This two-year contract, reporting to the CEO, may involve some Scottish travel.
