Do you have experience of working within an administrative role, but you’re looking to take the next step to start your marketing career within one of the most high-profile UK charities?
About the role
We have an exciting opportunity to join our Legacy Promotions team, who play a key role in delivering more than a third of Macmillan’s income. You’ll be one of the first points of contact for the team and will be responsible for providing general administrative support across our marketing portfolio.
This role is dual location – working at home and in our London office approx. once a week. We are looking for someone who is willing to travel and work unsocial hours on an occasional basis when delivering events.

About you
You’ll be confident and enthusiastic working with internal teams as well as handling legacy inquiries from the public, so excellent customer service, communication and relationship building skills are a must.

Some marketing, events or charity experience would be an advantage, but willingness to learn is just as important.
