What’s in it for you?

One of our biggest strengths are the people that work for us, and we attract, develop and retain the best talent because it's our people who set us apart.

We know that a new job isn’t just about your first day in the office. We want you to feel part of Alzheimer’s Research UK and our passion for beating dementia from the moment you are offered the job. That’s why we provide a comprehensive induction process, helping you to understand the role that each team plays within the charity and how vital you are in the fight to defeat dementia.

Alzheimer’s Research UK would not be able to achieve its vision without the talent and dedication of its employees. It is important to us that every member of the team feels as though their voice is being heard and that their career is being invested in. This is why we encourage employee development and work with employees to identify opportunities to grow and achieve their ambitions. We ensure that all of our employees feel connected to our cause, with updates and talks available from employees, supporters, scientists and volunteers.
