Welcome to National Eczema Society

Welcome and thank you for your interest in learning more about the exciting opportunities currently available to join our growing organisation.

About us

National Eczema Society is the UK charity dedicated to making life better for people with eczema and their families. As a relatively small and agile organisation, we punch above our weight and have big ambitions.

We rely on voluntary donations to fund our work, sharing information about eczema through our website, publications, communications and awareness campaigns. We also provide a collective voice for people with eczema, raising awareness, supporting eczema research and campaigning for better medical care.

In the UK, around 1 in 5 children and 1 in 10 adults live with eczema, so lots of people are looking to the charity for hope and support. Our mission is to empower people to live well with eczema, to become ‘expert patients’, supported by a charity that puts their needs first. Through growing our research, campaigning and awareness-raising, we are working hard to improve eczema care in the future.

Why we're recruiting

As part of our exciting new strategy, we are growing our work and need a number of enthusiastic people who are great team workers to play a big part in the charity's future.

We are passionate about improving the quality of life for people with eczema and raising awareness of the condition. You would join our small team based at the charity’s offices in Camden, north London. We are relocating to new co-working offices in central London in early 2025.

There is flexibility for some home-based working, but you are expected to work in the office at least two days a week for effective team-working.

Open to all: inclusive recruitment in the charity sector

Given that so many work with marginalised or disadvantaged groups of people, you’d expect charities to be more aware than most of the barriers to employment such groups often face, and the need to be more inclusive.
