We have a rare opportunity for an experienced policy professional to join as team as Policy Analyst.
In this exciting role you will lead the policy workstream for Head On, a major Wellcome Trust funded campaign bringing together 20 sector leading organisations to build political momentum for mental health reform. You will be a skilled policy analyst and writer, able to coordinate influencing opportunities with MPs, Ministers and No. 10 on the NHS 10 Year Plan and the new Mental Health Strategy. Experience in policy and public affairs, and knowledge of health or mental health policy, are essential.
Centre for Mental Health is committed to promoting equity, diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our work, to help create better mental health for all. We are taking active steps to become an antiracist organisation, and we value and support staff with lived experience of mental health challenges. We want the team shaping mental health policy to reflect the diversity of people whose lives that policy affects. We are happy to provide reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process for disabled applicants. We particularly encourage applications from people of colour and trans people, who are often underrepresented in policy roles.
We are also able to offer this role as a potential secondment opportunity.
Please provide a short CV (no more than two sides) and brief answers to our screening questions which ask about which capacity you have worked in coalition and in mental health policy. This is to allow you to highlight your experience as it may not be immediately apparent from your job title or employer.
We may follow up to request further details before deciding on our shortlist for interviews, which we expect to hold in the weeks of 20th or 27th July 2026. Please let us know if you are unable to make interviews during these weeks.
Our aspiration in this process is to avoid requiring all candidates to submit detailed cover letters in addition to CVs as we know this can be both time consuming and a significant amount of work.
We take the lead in challenging injustices in policies, systems and society, so that everyone can have better mental health.
