OUR PEOPLE
We are a learning organisation
PCRC is a ‘learning organisation’ that promotes and facilitates collaboration and knowledge-sharing. We are striving for excellence and committed to continuous improvement whether we are scientists, staff or volunteers.

We set high standards for everyone involved in the organisation and offer support to achieve those goals. We also realise that we have a fairly youthful staff team who we have a responsibility to support. We have therefore increased our training budget to 5% of each employee’s salary cost in 2019/20 in order to help people continue to grow and develop. Each team member is able to use their training budget as best fits their learning style as long as the training fits with our mission.
We will also continually analyse skills gaps and recruit board members and executive advisory group members who will bring new perspectives and add value to the organisation. The team love to learn from the wealth of experience that our board and EAG members bring to the table and we are constantly learning from them through our committees, board meeting and one to one meetings.
STAFF
SAC TRUSTEES
Staff
In PCRC’s HQ, our small but dedicated team of fundraisers, scientific researchers, finance executives, administrators, and interns work together to keep the charity running smoothly. From spearheading events to managing new projects, our staff drive income and ensure our vision and mission remain at the heart of all operations.
Trustees
Our Board of Trustees are individuals who are highly regarded in their respective fields. With diverse backgrounds ranging from the pharmaceutical industry, to banking, or urology, they provide their time and expertise on a voluntary basis to ensure that the charity is governed to the highest standard.
SAC
Our Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) is a group of UK scientists who are recognised as experts in cancer research. They are not employed by the charity, and act as an independent advisory group, ensuring that the research we fund is high quality and meeting its targets.
