Be part of an organisation that’s shaping health and social care

For over a century, The King’s Fund has worked to improve people’s health and care. We do this through our research, analysis and insight; leadership and organisational development with health and care leaders; convening and events; and partnering with others. With bold thinking for better health, we’re on a mission to inspire hope and confidence that we can create a world where everyone lives a healthy life.

About the role

Ensure we operate transparently and responsibly

As Governance Manager, you’ll take charge of The King’s Fund’s governance arrangements to ensure the charity runs as it should. Working closely with senior leaders, you’ll see that the support structures and processes are in place for us to meet our obligations and strategic goals.

Over the course of the year, you’ll support meetings for the Board of Trustees, the General Advisory Council and the Senior Management Team. As well as governance advice, you’ll provide administration and co-ordination; manage the reporting cycle; and keep an up-to-date register of interests.

About you

Experience is essential and you will bring with you a firm grasp of charity governance frameworks, processes and senior-level decision-making from previous role(s) within a governance role in a charity (or a similar organisation). In fact, when you’re not supporting meetings, you’ll champion governance across our team. Efficient and digitally savvy, you’ll support assurance processes and bring instant credibility.

The Fund has an ambition to increase the diversity of our workforce and introduce careers in health and care policy to a broader range of people. We encourage applicants from all sections of the community, including those from Black and ethnic minority backgrounds, those with disabilities and from the LGBTQ+ community. We believe that diversity of background and experience contributes to a broader collective perspective that will improve the way we influence health and social care policy.

What you'll get in return

The Fund is committed to a hybrid working model that meets the organisation’s needs, while giving staff flexibility to choose between office and home working. Most staff are expected to work a minimum of 40% from our central London office and are free to work more days from the office if they prefer. This role may need to be in the office more than 40% of the time (e.g. to support meetings).

In addition to a competitive salary, The King’s Fund offers generous holiday entitlements, a £3 daily discount in our café and an on-site gym.
