Every year Macmillan receives millions of pounds from gifts in the wills of our wonderful supporters. Administering these gifts sensitively and professionally is vital if we are going to continue to grow this key income stream and meet the ever growing needs of people living with cancer.

We are striving to do everything we can to ensure that our workforce is representative of the people we support, and those who support us. We advocate for being an inclusive organisation, where everyone can feel that they belong and where there are no barriers to success.

We want every individual to feel empowered to bring their best to work, and that’s why we offer flexibility in our working locations, working hours and benefits so we can support you in your life and your career, and we welcome a conversation about how these options can best support you.

We offer a range of flexible working patterns, such as compressed hours, e.g. 34.5 hours in 4 days instead of 5, flexibility to work earlier or later around our core working hours of 10am-4pm and more options.

About the role

We are recruiting for a Legacy Income Assistant who will play a vital role within our Legacy Income Team. Your daily work will include assisting in the set up of new legacy gifts and keeping existing ones updated. You will also manage a number of pecuniary gifts left to Macmillan, answer enquiries from executors and solicitors and support other members of the team where required.

About you

You will be organised, able to prioritise, and a team player with a keen eye for detail and excellent customer service skills as well as a desire to deliver amazing Macmillan experiences to everyone with whom you come into contact. These skills will help you to build relationships that will enable the Legacies Division to grow the charity’s income in the coming years.

You will join a fantastic team who pride themselves on being diligent, supportive, knowledgeable, accepting of others, compassionate, curious and fun. If your values match with ours then we would love to hear from you!

In return for your enthusiasm and commitment you will benefit from Macmillan’s brilliant development programme and receive private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, generous leave, and interest free loans for season ticket and gym membership.

About us
We help millions of people with cancer across the UK live life as fully as they can through physical, emotional and financial support. Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions. Together, we do whatever it takes for people living with cancer; with heart, with strength and with ambition.

We commit to actively developing you and our benefits include private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, generous leave, and interest free loans for season tickets and gym membership.
