Cally Worden
Welfare Rights Apprentice
Direct Services Operations – Money and work
I wanted to do something meaningful, something for myself. It’s the nicest team I’ve ever worked in.
View ProfileBackI have had various Cancer experiences within my family. I lost my dad when I was 10. My brother had Stage 3 cancer through 2019, we nearly lost him as well.
That triggered a re-alignment of my own values and where I wanted to go in my life.

Ella Forster
Relationship Fundraising Manager
Relationship Fundraising
Out of all the jobs I’ve done, working at Macmillan feels the least like a job. I get excited to see my team, I’m inspired to speak to all our supporters. Every day, I am fortunate enough to get to speak to inspiring people who have done so much and been through so much.
View ProfileBackI think I always knew I wanted to work in the third sector but it was a roundabout way to get here.
I worked in Tech before, had enough of that and decided to pursue my dream. I quit my job and this role at Macmillan came up and it felt like fate.

Welfare Rights Apprentice
Direct Services Operations – Money and work
Helping customers is what I really enjoy but what makes it really enjoyable is the team. When you’re doing something you feel is right and you’re doing what you think you can fight for, if the environment isn’t right you feel it. Here, everybody’s fantastic.
View ProfileBackI reached a stage in my life where I needed to change what I was doing. My kids had reached an age where they didn’t need so much support day to day and I was looking for a full time role. I was really interested in third sector.

Phil Naish
Service Desk Analyst
Technology Service Operations
Within my team, the people have been here 3 + years. Rather than coming into Macmillan to get some knowledge then move on, I want to stay here, get the knowledge and move up.
View ProfileBackAs I was applying for jobs, I saw the Macmillan name and it’s such a well-known charity that does incredible work for people affected by Cancer. I’ve lost a couple of people in my life from Cancer so I thought it would be perfect for me.
It helps that I can give back.
