At the Greater London Authority (GLA), we know that good health is shaped not just by healthcare, but by systems, communities and leadership. We’re looking for an experienced and politically astute policy and delivery professional to help drive forward the Mayor’s vision for a healthier, more equal London — by working hand in hand with the health and care system to shape real change.
The new role is an exciting opportunity to lead key areas of our health and care partnerships work. You’ll play a central role in delivering the Mayor’s priorities — from shaping how the GLA works with the NHS and local partners, to driving forward work on NHS reforms, and London’s broader health inequalities agenda.
You’ll co-lead the GLA’s engagement with London’s Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), supporting the Mayor’s representatives and helping align health and care commissioning with Mayoral priorities. A key objective is to improve health outcomes, reduce inequalities and ensure that health and care systems support the needs of London’s diverse communities.
You’ll work with senior leaders across health, local government and the community sector. Success in these roles depends on your ability to build trust, spot policy and delivery opportunities, and respond with agility to emerging priorities — often in fast-moving or politically sensitive contexts.
You’ll have strong leadership skills and be able to work strategically across organisations and sectors. You’ll drive delivery and bring an astute policy brain and collaborative spirit to complex challenges. You’ll also be agile, flexible and operate well under pressure.
