Program Manager, Health Systems Improvement - Global
Annual Salary £65,000 | 2 Year Contract
Men are dying too young – and it doesn’t have to be that way.
Around the world, men are facing a health crisis: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and suicide. At Movember we’re on a mission to change the face of men’s health by making it easier for men to talk, act and live longer healthier lives.
Every project, every campaign, every idea adds up to real change. You’ll be part of a purpose-fueled crew who believe making an impact and having fun should go hand in hand. Your mission is calling.
DO GOOD. Work for Movember.
Your Mo-Mission (should you choose to accept it):
Healthcare systems weren't built with men in mind. Movember is changing that.
As Program Manager, Health System Improvement, you'll lead our System Leadership initiative, a cross-market effort to bring together health system leaders, clinicians, researchers, and policymakers across Australia, UK, Canada, and the US to identify what genuinely better looks like for men's healthcare.
Your core mission is to design and deliver a program of expert convenings, facilitate cross-market co-design processes, and translate what you hear and learn into a practical Men's Healthcare Service Improvement Framework. This is a tangible, evidence-informed resource that health services can pick up and use to assess and improve how they engage with and respond to men. You'll coordinate everything from workplanning and logistics through to stakeholder follow-up, pilot testing, and framework launch.
Alongside the convenings, you'll be synthesising insights from across the broader Health Systems portfolio, drawing on research, practitioner training, and health literacy initiatives to identify patterns, surface barriers, and develop outputs that resonate with health system leaders and policymakers alike. That means contributing to policy briefs, position papers, presentations, and sector publications, working closely with our Policy and Advocacy team to make sure everything you build lands where it can have the most impact.
Stakeholder relationships are central to the role. You'll identify and engage clinical experts, sector organisations, and government stakeholders across our core markets, building a network of champions who can support framework adoption and drive broader system-level change. You'll represent Movember at conferences and forums, and maintain the kind of trusted relationships that turn a framework into lasting influence.
Internally, you'll work across a genuinely cross-functional team, collaborating with Research, Social Impact, Communications, and Country teams, as well as senior leadership, to ensure your initiative outputs are integrated, well-governed, and strategically aligned.
This is a delivery-focused, two-year fixed-term role based in London. It's for someone who knows how to bring diverse stakeholders together, can translate complexity into clarity, and wants their work to matter.
No Moustache Required - but the following are:
-
A degree in public health, health policy, health services, social sciences, or a related field, plus at least five years of experience in program management, health system improvement, or policy development.
-
Demonstrated experience designing and delivering stakeholder convenings, workshops, or co-design processes, and the ability to bring diverse voices into a room and make the conversation productive.
-
Proven ability to synthesise evidence and translate insights into practical frameworks, tools, and guidance that people can actually use.
-
Strong understanding of health systems and the policy environment in at least one of our core markets: Australia, UK, Canada, or the US.
-
Excellent project management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple workstreams, stakeholders, and deadlines without dropping the ball.
-
Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to make complex information accessible to a wide range of audiences.
-
Experience managing program budgets and reporting progress and outcomes to senior leadership.
-
Comfort working across distributed teams and time zones, and flexibility to travel internationally approximately three to four times per year.
Not Mission Critical - but for extra bonus points:
-
Experience working across multiple countries or within a global or matrixed organisation.
-
Familiarity with men's health, gender-responsive healthcare, or related areas.
-
A background in implementation science, quality improvement, or scaling frameworks.
-
Existing relationships with health system leaders, policymakers, or sector organisations in relevant markets.
-
Experience in the charity or not-for-profit sector.
-
Experience working with lived experience representatives in co-design processes.
GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for men’s health. Every bit we raise changes the face of men’s health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives.
We’re even shaping government policies on men’s health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on men’s health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve.
GOOD VIBES:
We love weekends. That’s why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub.
Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best.
GOOD CREW:
Spoiler alert: we’re a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And it’s true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo.
We offer:
-
Hybrid/Flexible working – we offer our team a split of home and office working
-
13 weeks paid Parental Leave and 6 weeks annual leave
-
Health Cash Plan – to support the costs of everyday healthcare needs (dental, optical, wellbeing)
-
An Employee Assistance Programme offering face to face counselling, plus legal and financial support
-
A fun stimulating and collaborating culture, with company events
-
Service awards after 3, 5 and 10 year
-
Committees to join – Culture team, Equity Diversity & Inclusion
-
Bike to work scheme
-
Half day Fridays for 9 months of the year
Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.
Movember is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community and workplace - a place where we can all be ourselves, and each have the equal opportunity to succeed and be recognised for our unique contribution. We value the experiences, skills and perspectives of all individuals and actively encourage applications from people with diverse backgrounds. We make recruitment decisions based on applicants’ skills, experience and knowledge, ensuring all applicants are treated fairly.
