Use your fundraising expertise to champion life-changing research and give hope to people living with debilitating, overlooked health conditions – join us as Trustee of the Medical Research Foundation.
The Medical Research Foundation is looking to appoint a trustee, with senior-level experience working within fundraising, preferably in biomedical science and with corporate or high value gift fundraising, to join our Board of Trustees.
Many of the diseases and conditions that affect human health have been cured or overcome as a result of medical research, but there will always be more to do and there are areas of medical need that receive little or no support – and people’s lives that see no improvement. That’s where we step in. The Medical Research Foundation is an independent charitable foundation, investing the power of our donations to change medicine and change lives.
In 2026, we are entering the third year of our current five-year Organisational strategy that focuses on changing the health of children and young people, those with neglected mental health conditions and those whose health will be impacted by the changing climate. Underpinning our mission is a strategic aim to secure our future for the generations to come, with a focus on increasing our fundraising capability and our voluntary income to at least £3m per annum by the end of 2029. We are looking to complement the current strengths of our Board with a trustee who brings senior‑level fundraising expertise, preferably in biomedical research and major donor giving, and will play a key role in helping us realise our vision and deliver on our five-year strategy to give hope through medical research. Ideally you will be familiar with the principles of corporate governance in the public or charitable sector.
Diversity and inclusion are a priority for us, and we encourage and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. Trustees are supported throughout their appointment with training and development opportunities, and we welcome applications from individuals are who new to charity trusteeship.
The Board typically meets four times a year in Central London. As part of their appointment, trustees are also asked to sit on the Board’s committees and attend occasional evening events. The position is voluntary and not remunerated, although reasonable expenses are paid, such as travel and childcare while attending our meetings and events.
The appointment will commence in May 2026 for a three-year term in the first instance.

The Sutton Trust is at a pivotal moment in its development. For nearly three decades, we have been the UK’s leading voice on social mobility, working tirelessly to break the link between socio-economic background and life chances. Today, that mission is as urgent as it has ever been. Despite pockets of progress, social mobility in the UK remains low by international standards, with deep inequalities in education, access to professions, and regional opportunity continuing to limit life chances and economic potential.
We are seeking a Trustee with policy expertise who shares our commitment to fairness, evidence, and long-term change. We value diversity of thought and experience, and we are keen to hear from those who can help us navigate an evolving political landscape and leverage our research to challenge systemic barriers, ensuring our voice remains the most influential in the national drive to transform social mobility.

Thank you for your interest in joining our Board at this exciting and important time for The Young Foundation.
We are currently in the second year of our five-year strategy, and the recent appointment of our new Chief Executive, Dr Sue Griffiths, who joins us on 2 March, marks a significant moment for the organisation. Sue and the Board will work closely to ensure that The Young Foundation continues to deliver against its core purpose: building a just society in which everyone can participate and all contributions are valued.

Our mission is to create the conditions in which people and communities can flourish. Working in partnership with the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, as well as public and private sector organisations, we empower people to fulfil their potential and lead happier, more meaningful lives. Ultimately, our work seeks to unlock shared prosperity.

· Health
· Business and social entrepreneurship
· Higher education
· Political networks
· Finance (an accountancy qualification would be an asset)
· External affairs and influencing, including opinion formers
Our Trustees bring the full breadth of their professional expertise and lived experience into the Boardroom. While we have identified priority areas within our skills matrix, we are committed to building a genuinely diverse and inclusive Board. We welcome candidates who can bring varied perspectives and lived experiences, enabling us to make decisions informed by a complete and authentic picture of life across the UK.
If you believe you have the knowledge, skills and experience to contribute to our work, we would be delighted to hear from you.

What if your ability to build partnerships could accelerate the future of women’s health research?
ENDOless is building a privacy-first, AI-powered data infrastructure dedicated to women’s chronic conditions.
We start with endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
But our ambition goes far beyond.
We are here to build the data layer that has been missing in women’s health — across chronic pain, hormonal disorders, mental health correlations, autoimmune patterns, cardiovascular signals, and beyond.
Not another period app.
A research-grade, structured, multimodal women’s health data platform.
And to make this real, we need strong research partnerships across Europe.
Your Role
You will be the person who opens the institutional doors.
As Business Developer – Research Partnerships, you will:
- Identify and approach university hospitals, clinical networks, public research institutes, and private research organizations across Europe
- Engage principal investigators, research directors, and innovation leads
- Position ENDOless as a strategic research data partner
- Structure and close pilot collaborations
- Navigate conversations around GDPR, ethics committees, data governance, and EU research funding frameworks
- Build a pipeline aligned with our regulatory and fundraising milestones
This is not transactional sales.
This is trust-based, long-cycle partnership building in European healthcare.
You will directly influence:
- Clinical validation
- Paid research pilots
- Institutional credibility
- Strategic revenue streams
You are not supporting sales.
You are building it.
Who You Are
- Based in Europe
- Fluent in English (French is a strong plus)
- Experienced in healthcare business development, research partnerships, clinical innovation, or institutional sales
- Comfortable speaking with professors, clinicians, regulatory advisors, and public institutions
- Familiar with:
- GDPR and European health data realities
- Ethics approvals and data governance
- The emerging European Health Data Space (EHDS)
- EU research funding structures (Horizon Europe, national grants, etc.)
- Long procurement and trust-building cycles
You understand that Europe moves slowly — but once credibility is earned, it compounds.
You think structurally, not opportunistically.
Why This Role Matters
Women’s health data is fragmented, biased, and underfunded.
Researchers lack structured, longitudinal, multimodal real-world data focused on women.
We are building that missing infrastructure.
This role is foundational.
Without strong partnerships, there is no validation.
Without validation, there is no systemic change.
What You Gain
- Strategic exposure to the European health innovation ecosystem
- Direct collaboration with the founder and CTO
- Influence over commercial and research roadmap
- Equity opportunity aligned with fundraising milestones
- A chance to build something category-defining
You will not just “close deals.”
You will help reshape how women’s health research is conducted.

- Structured symptom tracking across 15+ dimensions
- Wearable physiological data (HRV, sleep, stress, activity)
- Environmental and behavioral context
