At Impact on Urban Health, we’re committed to achieving health equity by helping urban areas become healthier places for everyone to live. We take a place-based approach to improving urban health. This helps us understand how the local environment affects people’s health and to find solutions that work in practice.

To drive better health in cities, we pay particular attention to the context in which people live and the wider determinants of their health, from finance and employment to social connection.

We have four programmes that each focus on one of the following health issues:

• childhood obesity
• multiple long-term conditions
• health effects of air pollution
• adolescent mental health

At Impact on Urban Health we have a team of Portfolio Managers. Each Portfolio Manager, coached by a Programme Director, builds part of a programme strategy, co-develops projects with partners, and makes recommendations for funding these projects. This is a supported process, with lots of input and ideas shared across the team as you shape your projects.

The Roles

We are currently seeking Portfolio Managers to work on four areas of our work: our programmes focussed on childhood obesity, the health effects of air pollution, and multiple long-term conditions; and as part of our research and development team.

What you will bring

• Strong relationship building skills, these may have been developed through coaching, building partnerships in different professional or personal contexts
• Inclusive and quality communication skills, comfortable with a wide range of audiences
• The ability to independently work in uncertainty on issues that are complex in nature and don’t have silver bullet solutions
• A growth mindset where you look at problems and issues as opportunities to learn and are constantly seeking to help others to grow and overcome their challenges
• A creative strategic thinker who can look at a complex problem and come up with solutions.
