We’re Breast Cancer Now, the research and support charity. However you’re experiencing breast cancer, we’re here.

We fund life-saving research, campaign for change and provide information and support to anyone affected by breast cancer.

Why? Because our vision is that by 2050, everyone with breast cancer will live and live well. But to make that vision a reality, we need to act now.

Join us to change the game in breast cancer

At Breast Cancer Now, we’ve got bold ambitions. And to make them a reality, we’re investing heavily in our high value fundraising team. We’re inviting passionate, driven professionals to be part of something extraordinary.

We have everything we need to transform and grow. A powerful cause. Deep-rooted connections. A clear strategy. Inspiring leadership. And the energy to make it all happen. Most importantly, we have the unwavering belief that people affected by breast cancer deserve more, and that we can deliver it.

Now is our moment

We’re building towards becoming a £100 million charity. And in 2026 we’ll launch our most ambitious initiative yet. Our first-ever £50 million high value fundraising campaign to transform outcomes for people with metastatic breast cancer. This is an historic milestone for Breast Cancer Now and a career-defining opportunity for the people ready to take on the challenge.

Whether you're an entrepreneurial and ambitious high-value fundraiser, a dynamic events professional or a prospect researcher with a passion for impact, there’s a place for you here. You’ll join a talented and collaborative team securing and delivering 7+ figure partnerships with philanthropists, trusts and foundations, and corporate supporters to make real change happen.

Whatever your background, if you bring expertise, creativity and a readiness to roll up your sleeves then we want to hear from you. This is your chance to be part of a team transforming what high value fundraising looks like at Breast Cancer Now so that we can redefine what’s possible for people affected by breast cancer.
