Chief Executive
Design in Mental Health Network
£65,000 - £70,000
Remote, with access to London and UK travel
Full-time, permanent

Design in Mental Health Network is a registered charity, which aims to improve mental health outcomes by promoting knowledge exchange, co-production involving the voice of people with Lived Experience and challenging the status quo of mental health design.

We are a network of experts whose perspectives, thoughts, insights, opinions are grounded in research, professional qualification and/or lived experience. The collective includes a wide range of stakeholders involved in planning for, designing, building, managing and using spaces that impact on our mental health.

We believe the better the design brief is in determining and matching the evidenced needs of all users, the better the goal of improving the actual design of settings to support better mental health care and patient outcomes will be.

Good design facilitates human connection (therapeutic/supportive relationships) and to this end we advocate to engage and influence people with decision making capabilities and/or budget control, to understand how to use existing resources more effectively in leading to better mental health outcomes.

We want to actively challenge the status quo, using research and our design skills to reimagine radical new ways of approaching mental health care that improve the outcomes for patients and make these spaces better places to work for the staff on the front line. Well always do this from the view of what is best for the person receiving care, using the built environment as a platform for lasting stabilisation or recovery from mental ill health.

Looking forward to this exciting time we are seeking a CEO with the skills and experience to develop, implement and drive a plan to see our ambitious vision come to fruition.

There is now a growing appetite globally for what we do, with a group of interested people forming in the US and Canada as they invest significant sums in new buildings.

How to apply

Application is by way of CV and a Supporting Statement, which should clearly set out your motivations for the role and how your experience to date meets the requirements.

Closing date: Sunday 10th November
First interviews: Week beginning 25th November (conducted remotely by NFP)
