North Thames Genomic Medicine Service Health Equity And Population Health Programme Manager

Are you passionate about reducing health inequalities and improving outcomes for diverse communities? This is a unique opportunity to lead programmes that ensure everyone can benefit fairly from advances in genomic medicine, helping to shape services that improve health outcomes for patients, families and populations across North Thames.

Working with healthcare organisations, public health teams, community partners and patient groups, you will develop and deliver strategies that improve equity of access, support population health approaches and drive meaningful change. You will influence regional and national priorities, build strong partnerships and translate innovation into real-world benefits for local communities.

We are looking for an experienced and collaborative leader with a track record of delivering programmes, building effective partnerships and using evidence to improve services and outcomes. This role offers the opportunity to make a lasting impact in one of the most innovative areas of healthcare.

We are committed to recruiting the best person for the job through a fair, open and consistent process that is free from bias and discrimination.

We are working towards becoming an anti-racist organisation. This means creating a workplace where every colleague feels seen, heard and valued, and where racism in any form has no place. Our anti-racism commitment is backed by action through our Anti-Racism Statement and action plan, developed in collaboration with our REACH staff network.

We actively challenge discrimination, dismantle barriers and embed equity across all aspects of our workforce, including recruitment, progression and development. All applicants will receive equal consideration regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, religion or belief, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, health condition or employment history.

We particularly welcome applications from ethnically diverse communities, people with disabilities or long-term health conditions, and LGBTQ+ community members. We are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer, a member of the Business Disability Forum, and a Stonewall Diversity Champion.

Our staff networks, including REACH, PRIDE, ENABLED and Women’s Networks, are active and executive supported. These employee-led networks play a vital role in shaping an inclusive culture at GOSH and are open to all colleagues.

Together, we are building a culture where inclusion is not optional - it is essential.
