Apply for our Medical Director role

We're the UK's leading HIV and sexual health charity. We've been at the forefront of the national response to HIV and sexual health issues for 40 years.

After 15 years in post, our current Medical Director Dr Michael Brady has taken the difficult decision to step down to focus on his other responsibilities as the LGBT Health Advisor for the NHS and as a Consultant in HIV and Sexual Health at King’s College Hospital.

We're now seeking to recruit his replacement.

We're looking to appoint a qualified doctor, at consultant grade specialising in HIV, sexual health or reproductive health, and registered with the General Medical Council.

This is a part-time leadership post within the organisation, requiring up to 25 hours per month on a flexible working basis. This role has been designed in order to allow the post holder to fulfill their responsibilities in addition to other clinical activity, employed either directly by us or via a secondment arrangement with their current employer.  

The post holder will:

• Provide professional advice relating to clinical practice, service delivery, clinical governance and safeguarding.
• Support and advise the charity in up-to-date best practice relating to sexual and reproductive health and HIV treatment and prevention.
• Represent us at national and local levels, acting as a spokesperson and ambassador for the charity.

We've recently approved a new three-year strategy that acknowledges that it is often marginalised communities that face the greatest inequalities in sexual and reproductive health. The new Medical Director will play an important role in helping us tackle these health inequalities, driving down prejudice and discrimination.

Please submit an outline of how you meet the requirements within the person specification, as well as an up-to-date CV, to [email protected].

The closing date is Wednesday 3 August 2022.

The salary will be commensurate with a senior level NHS Consultant's remuneration.
