Global network manager jobs
Are you a policy or campaigns leader who wants to drive real-world change?
Do you want to use your advocacy and communications skills to challenge injustice and amplify excluded voices?
At HCT, we know healthcare should work for everyone – but too often, it doesn’t. We’ve proven what’s possible: our work on hepatitis C has transformed services nationally, and we’re expanding into cancer prevention, harm reduction, needle exchange, and many other areas. We’re also at the forefront of the fight for justice for those affected by the Infected Blood scandal.
We’re looking for someone who can bring creativity, confidence, and passion to help us shift policy and public attitudes, amplify the voices of marginalised communities, and hold government to account. This is a pivotal moment for us organisationally as we seek to drive major change for the communities we work with, from drug policy to criminal justice to infected blood. The successful candidate will have excellent partnership-building skills across Government, VCS, NHS and Whitehall; have a strong focus on social justice; and have a real belief in the power of working closely with communities.
As Head of Policy & Advocacy, you will:
- Lead bold campaigns that influence government, shift public debate, and secure justice for excluded communities, including those affected by the Infected Blood scandal.
- Champion health equity: keeping hepatitis C elimination, harm reduction, and wider inclusion health issues firmly on the national agenda.
- Amplify lived experience by ensuring our campaigns, media work, and policy influencing are shaped by and centred on the voices of our teams and communities.
- Build power through partnerships: working with partner charities, health leaders, and campaigners to push for systemic change.
- Shape and oversee communications: from press engagement to social media — making sure our messages cut through and inspire action.
- Guide and support colleagues: line managing our Senior Policy & Campaigns Officer and playing an active role in our senior management team.
You’ll be someone who:
- Has experience influencing policy and shifting narratives – whether through campaigns, communications, advocacy, or all three.
- Knows how to build coalitions and partnerships, and can navigate Westminster, Whitehall, and beyond.
- Can work strategically and independently, spotting opportunities and acting on them.
- Is motivated by justice, equality, and creating a fairer future.
- Brings excellent communication skills – from crafting persuasive messages to building great relationships.
- Understands the value of evidence, but also the power of storytelling and lived experience in driving change.
This role offers real autonomy: you’ll have the space to shape our influencing and communications work, backed by a committed team and a growing organisation ready to amplify your impact.
