Get involved and help Queenslanders living with cancer by volunteering. Volunteers are the heart of our organisation. Join us to make a greater impact and connect with like-minded people.
Every contribution helps support those living with cancer. Whether a one-off donation or monthly gift, your support ensures funding stability for long-term goals and future generations.
Leave a legacy by including a gift in your Will, starting a tribute page for a loved one, or funding a research grant for early-career cancer researchers driving clinical innovations.
Organise a fundraising event in your community, either as a team or an individual. You can join one of our existing fundraising events or you might like to come up with your own way.
When organisations work together, we can have a greater impact for every Queenslander going through cancer and help amplify our message for all Australians.
However you get involved, you’re making a direct impact on the lives of Queenslanders affected by cancer. See the results of what we’ve all achieved.
We couldn’t do any of it without the support of our talented and passionate team.
Having like-minded people join us makes it possible to provide the support, research and education Queenslanders need.
At Cancer Council Queensland, we celebrate each other’s diverse backgrounds, skills, and experiences. Applications are strongly encouraged from Indigenous Australians, people from a range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds, people with disabilities, and LGBTIQA+ individuals.

Our people are at the heart of everything we do. Cancer Council careers give you the opportunity to channel your passion into something bigger – and you won’t find people more passionate than ours.
Apart from having the opportunity to work with a passionate team and make a difference in the lives of Queenslanders dealing with cancer, and their families, there are also some other great benefits to working with Cancer Council Queensland.
Take advantage of attractive salary packaging options with your Cancer Council job. Salary packaging lets you pay for certain expenses – things like your mortgage or rent, your child’s school fees, even eating out and holidays – before you’re taxed. This means you could pay less tax and have more spending money freed up for the things you want.
We believe to help others, it’s important you also take care of yourself. It’s true when you’re caring for someone with cancer, and it’s true when you’re working in a Cancer Council job. As a result, we’re committed to flexibility and ensuring our employees have a sustainable work-life balance.
Our goal setting and performance review program is focused on individual achievement and development. It aims to inspire you to consider how you would like to grow in your role or within your not-for-profit career.
We understand how important it is to protect your health – perhaps more than most employers. We want to support all Queenslanders to reduce their cancer risk and optimise their health, and that includes our staff. Cancer Council Queensland staff receive a discount at our online retail store, as well as the chance to participate in our Healthy Workplace activities, and gain access to health programs we offer.
Confidential counselling and wellbeing support services, as well as personal coaching, is available through our EAP to all employees during their Cancer Council careers. The ongoing emotional wellbeing of our team is vitally important to us, and something we try to protect at all costs.
