London, Greater London, United Kingdom Independent Healthcare Providers Network (IHPN) Full time

The Independent Healthcare Providers Network (IHPN) is the membership network for independent healthcare providers. Our members deliver a diverse range of services to NHS and private patients including acute care, primary care, community care, clinical home healthcare, diagnostics and mental health across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Our vision is for a thriving independent healthcare sector delivering great care to NHS and private patients. IHPN's work programme covers a diverse range of topics from supporting providers to achieve net zero; working on the contribution of the independent sector to NHS services; promoting privately-funded services to consumers and businesses; supporting the development of medical governance oversight frameworks; and much more.

We have over 100 member organisations from large multinationals to small specialist providers and interact with thousands of individuals across the sector every year through our groups, forums, events and newsletters. We also run a thriving Commercial Associate programme with over 30 different corporate partners and in 2024 were named 'Association of the Year' at the Association Excellence Awards. We enjoy high levels of member support and as a small team punch well above our weight.

The Director of Policy role is a critical position within the organization and reports directly to the Chief Executive. The postholder will lead on all aspects of IHPN's policy development and implementation work, liaising closely with a wide range of member and external stakeholders to ensure that IHPN policy positions are reflective of the views of members and have maximum impact in the policy making environment. The role will require an in-depth understanding of UK health policy and the postholder will continually be updating that understanding with a particular focus on how it applies to the private healthcare sector. The postholder will also play a key leadership role across the sector and in the organization itself and be comfortable operating at Board and CEO level.
