“I'm helping to beat cancer every day and I honestly don't think there's a better feeling than that. I'm enormously proud to work for the charity. Did I think 10 years ago when I went for my interview that I would still be working here? I don't think I did. And in those 10 years that I've come and gone, to see the progress that we've made and seeing the impact of the work that I do is really nice.”

What does Cancer Research UK do?
At Cancer Research UK, we exist to beat cancer. As the world’s leading cancer research charity, we are at the forefront of the global fight against cancer, bringing together millions of people who share our determination to beat it. For the past 120 years, we’ve been making discoveries that have saved countless lives, and which benefit millions of people around the world each year. But cancer is one of the world's greatest health challenges and we have so much more to do.
Careers at Cancer Research UKHow do you do it?
‘Beating’ cancer involves discovering how and why it develops and evolves, then using that knowledge to find ways to prevent people developing it, detect it earlier when they do and offer them cutting-edge treatments. We strive to ensure everyone shares in this progress equally, no matter who they are, where they live, or what type of cancer they have. We are beating cancer every day. But we need to go much further and much faster.
