The postholder will work at the point where health, higher education and government policy meet, across the UK and Ireland. This policy environment is fast moving and shaped by tight financial pressures. We are looking for someone who is genuinely interested in policy and curious about how universities and health education organisations work, including the people and dynamics that shape decisions.

The role will involve responsive, professional committee support with clear, evidence informed policy work. The postholder will help gather member insights and enable input in timely external briefings, and practical support for the sector. The successful candidate will be keen to contribute and to build strong working relationships, and committed to equality, diversity and inclusion.

This is a hybrid role and the postholder will spend a minimum of one day a week in our Euston office.

Interviews are expected to take place in our London office on Wednesday 08 April 2026.
