Cancer Research UK apprenticeships are for anyone wanting to start their career in a new profession whilst getting an insight into what it’s like working for one of the UK’s leading charities.
You could be at the start of your career, wanting to study and learn at the same time, or you could be at a later stage of your career but pivoting your career and looking to reskill in a new profession.
Ultimately, you will live and work in England and not have a qualification in the same or similar subject at the same or higher level than the apprenticeship will provide. Each apprenticeship vacancy has its own eligibility criteria so please take a read and get in touch if you have any questions.
Apprenticeship roles are advertised throughout the year at Cancer Research UK. You can keep checking our career pages, or register for job alerts and we'll let you know when a new apprenticeship vacancy is available.
There is a real opportunity to join Cancer Research UK and make an impact whilst you are here. At the end of your apprenticeship, you may already be in a permanent role or you may be encouraged to apply for permanent positions, if suitable ones are available, to enable you to stay on at the charity.
We’re passionate about your personal development.
When you join Cancer Research UK as an apprentice you are welcomed into a network of other apprentices to connect with like-minded people across the organisation and build a supportive network.
Whichever apprenticeship role you take on, you’ll have:
A dedicated line manager to support you in your role
A 121 coach from one of our training providers who guides you through your qualification
As part of our apprentice community, you’ll have the chance to take part in various networking opportunities, fundraising and volunteering activities as well as attend socials and talks.
Our fundraising apprentices will also join our Fundraising Academy from day one of their apprenticeship providing them with a peer network as well as centralised learning content, talks and blogs to support them in their role.
Please contact us if you have any questions or should you require any adjustment due to a disability or a long-term health condition.
