Join the GLA Group Public Health team, and you can help London to become the world’s healthiest global city.
We are looking for a highly motivated specialist in public health to lead a strategic portfolio of work focused on transport and air quality. Shaping work to improve the health and wellbeing of Londoners, working closely with the GLA Group Director of Public Health and wider team, the Mayor’s Office and deputy Mayors, Transport for London as well as senior leaders and managers.
You will have strong analytical and influencing skills, be able to support the design and development of long-term strategies through multiple partnerships and systems and work effectively in a complex political and partnership environment.
