Vacancies
NeuroMuscular Centre : Current Vacancies
Chief Executive : Full Time, Permanent, Salary £60,000
Leading this charity won’t be what you expect.
This is a very special opportunity to lead a great team, an extraordinary charity, and an incredible community following the retirement of our long-serving Chief Executive.
NMC is a very successful charity. It has 34 years’ experience supporting, enabling, and treating people affected by neuromuscular conditions.
What you see is warm, quirky, and informal, and behind that is a highly professional and groundbreaking operation. It’s a charity well used to evolution, growth, development, and adapting to new ideas. We are led and strongly influenced by those who are affected by these progressive muscle conditions.
We’re looking for someone who is at ease with our informality, and the expectation that you may called on to do just about anything. Equally we want someone with excellent management experience at senior and independent decision-making level.
You’ll be empathetic and be at ease working alongside disabled people.
Speak with Matthew Lanham OBE, our current Chief Executive, about the role.

Community and Events Fundraiser : Full Time, Permanent, Salary £25,000 - £27,500 (depending on experience)
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Community and Events Fundraiser to join a unique charity in Cheshire!
We are looking for an enthusiastic fundraiser to create and grow income opportunities through events and community activities for the Neuromuscular Centre; a charity in Winsford that provides a range of unique, specialist services for people with neuromuscular conditions. The Centre is a warm, vibrant community that exists as the only one of its kind in the UK and Europe. You'll be joining a successful fundraising team that together raises £500,000 per year, and a charity that has been enhancing the quality of life for people affected by neuromuscular conditions for 34 years.
You’ll be maintaining NMC’s existing events calendar, which includes a well-established outdoor tribute concert and quiz night, as well as having the autonomy to develop the calendar further and put your own stamp on it. You’ll also be managing our community fundraising income, which includes individual giving, lottery, working with local groups and supporting individuals with their own fundraising activities. You will be developing and building relationships with new and existing supporters to maximise fundraising potential, as well as recruiting and managing volunteers from all walks of life.
The ability to work independently is a must – you’ll be responsible for all aspects of Events and Community fundraising. We’re looking for someone with previous fundraising experience, with the ambition to take this to new levels.
If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you! Please send your CV and supporting statement to ben.dale@nmcentre.com. If you’d like an informal chat about the role first, please contact Claire on 01606 861733.
