Job description

The Academy of Medical Sciences’ FORUM is a neutral, independent platform for bringing together leaders from research, industry, the health system, charities and Government to share insight, exchange evidence and explore solutions to complex challenges in health and life sciences. Relevant Academy priorities for this role include, but are not limited to:

  • Improving health outcomes in the UK and internationally
  • Mobilising the UK health research system to turn discovery into practice.
  • Making the UK the best place in the world to have a career in medical sciences

As Senior Policy Officer, you will help shape and deliver this high‑impact cross-sector programme — ensuring the Academy convenes the right people, on the right issues, at the right time. In the next year, policy areas you will work on may include prevention and early detection, using clinical evidence to speed up translation from discovery to patient impact, inclusion of underrepresented groups in research, and the use of AI and data across biomedical sciences.

You will lead delivery of a portfolio of policy meetings and workshops, produce influential outputs, and manage relationships across the FORUM network. You will use evidence, stakeholder insight and sound judgement to support decisions about where the Academy should focus its convening power, helping us maximise our impact while maintaining the high standards and values that underpin our work.

This role offers a unique opportunity to shape conversations across the life sciences and contribute to improving health through evidence-informed policy.

FORUM is a cross-sectoral programme, and we welcome applications from people with a variety of professional backgrounds. You might have experience in healthcare (including allied health profession such as nursing), medical research, Government, regulation, humanities, economics, community engagement, and/or industry. This list is not exhaustive, please do contact us if you would like to discuss the relevance of your experience.

Benefits

  • Generous pension scheme with flexible contributions – we contribute between 8% - 13% of your gross salary (with employee contributions of 3% - 8%)
  • Life assurance at three times your salary
  • Hybrid and agile working. 50% office attendance
  • 26 days annual leave, plus Christmas closure days and bank holidays
  • Buying and selling leave
  • Family-friendly policies including enhanced maternity and paternity leave (subject to a qualifying period)
  • Complimentary subscriptions to Headspace and Classpass to support your physical and mental wellbeing
  • Support through tailored learning and development
  • A range of enhanced benefits become available once you’ve completed your probation period

Closing date: 9.00am on Tuesday, 14 April 2026.

Interview date: Tuesday, 28 April 2026 (online).
