Who We Are Looking For
Breakthrough T1D is the UK's leading type 1 diabetes charity, dedicated to funding research, advocating for change, and supporting the T1D community. A year into our exciting rebrand from JDRF to Breakthrough T1D, we're looking for a Senior IT Manager to help us build on this momentum.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits

You'll have previous experience of:
- Management of digital systems, in particular Microsoft 365
- Digital project management/rollout of digital systems
- Providing IT/digital support to multiple teams across an organisation
- Management and development of good relationships with external IT support services and suppliers
