About The Role

Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. Almost one million people are living with dementia today. Through our Innovation Programme, we work with entrepreneurs, researchers, clinicians and people affected by dementia to develop and scale new ideas. You will help make this work happen, reporting to a Senior Innovator and joining a small, supportive Innovation team within Research and Innovation. Your role is to keep things running smoothly day‑to‑day, supporting events, relationships and ensuring the detail behind our work is clear, accurate and organised.

• Support planning and delivery of events such as workshops, conferences and meetings.
• Provide day‑to‑day admin support, including inbox management, meeting scheduling, agendas, action tracking and record keeping.
• Keep stakeholder information accurate and up to date so others can rely on it.
• Prepare presentations, reports and materials that make ideas easy to understand.
• Support financial processes, including invoices, budget tracking and clear record keeping.

• Is comfortable with data and digital systems, or willing to learn.
• Has supported events in some way, such as planning, coordination, logistics, budgeting or engagement.
• Is a collaborative team player who supports others and shares workloads when things get busy.

• Brings strong organisation, attention to detail, clear communication and a genuine interest in improving how things are done.

We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under‑represented at Alzheimer’s Society. We want everyone we work with to feel included and that they belong. Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help promote inclusion and belonging, making us an engaging and inclusive organisation for all our people.
