Jarrow Tyne and Wear, United Kingdom Northern Cancer Voices Full time

Northern Cancer Voices is an award-winning charity amplifying the voices of people affected by cancer. We're looking for a strategic and organised volunteer Project Manager to help us strengthen our project delivery framework. What difference will you make? This role will be transformational for NCV because it introduces structure and efficiency to how projects are managed. Here's how it helps Why It Matters Creates a clear entry point for new ideas The "Front Door" process ensures every project request is assessed consistently, avoiding ad-hoc decisions and improving transparency. Improves planning and accountability Project Initiation Documents (PIDs) capture objectives, timelines, budgets, and risks upfront, reducing scope creep and ensuring alignment with NCV's strategic goals. Enables better oversight and reporting A PMO tracking system will allow NCV to monitor all projects in one place, spot delays early, and provide accurate updates to funders and the Board—critical for compliance and future bids. Supports sustainability and growth Funders increasingly expect charities to demonstrate robust governance and project management. This role helps NCV meet those expectations, strengthening credibility for grants and partnerships. Frees up leadership time By centralising project coordination, the team can focus on engagement and delivery rather than chasing updates or managing admin. What are we looking for? Qualities Organised and methodical – Can design clear processes and keep projects on track. Attention to detail – Ensures accuracy in documentation and reporting. Process-driven mindset – Comfortable creating frameworks like front-door systems and PMO dashboards. Strong communicator – Able to liaise with staff, volunteers, and external partners effectively. Problem solver – Can identify gaps and propose practical solutions. Adaptable and proactive – Thrives in a small charity environment with limited resources. Tech confident – Comfortable using Excel and simple project management tools (Trello, Asana, or similar). Experience Project management background – Formal or informal experience in planning, delivery, and reporting. PMO or governance experience – Understanding of project tracking and risk management. Process design – Experience creating workflows or standard operating procedures. Documentation skills – Ability to produce Project Initiation Documents (PIDs) and maintain records. Stakeholder engagement – Experience working with multiple teams or partners. Charity or small organisation experience (desirable) – Understanding of compliance and funding requirements. What will you be doing? Design a simple "Front Door" process for new project requests (how ideas enter and are assessed). Create and maintain Project Initiation Documents (PIDs) for approved projects. Develop and manage a PMO tracking system to monitor progress, risks, and outcomes across all projects. Liaise with staff, volunteers, and partners to ensure projects stay on track and deliver impact.
