Director of Communications

London

IHPN is the membership network for independent healthcare providers. We play a leading role in the sector by bringing all types of independent providers together, supporting them to deliver great care to patients, and enabling them to make a positive contribution to UK healthcare. In 2024, IHPN won the Trade Association of the Year Award at the annual industry awards.

Our vision is for a thriving independent healthcare sector delivering great care to NHS and private patients.

The position of Director of Communications is a newly created role within IHPN that has been created to support member growth. The postholder will sit on the organisation’s Senior Management Team.

Leading on all aspects of IHPN’s communications work, the Director of Communications will oversee the work of two existing members of the team to shape our external and member communications to help support member and industry objectives. They will also play a pivotal role in how we communicate with our 120 members across the UK, using the most effective and efficient methods of communication.

Bringing real energy and a passion for communications the postholder will enjoy a varied and stimulating working environment, liaising on a daily basis with members, journalists, Parliamentarians and senior civil servants. Confidence in engaging with these varied audiences is essential and the successful candidate will need to be able to demonstrate that they can quickly command the confidence of different groups, be comfortable working at Board level and in speaking in front of an audience. Having also ideally come from a healthcare background they will also be familiar with the issues that IHPN is dealing with and be agile in responding to them.

IHPN is a small organisation dealing with a wide range of issues at any one time and proactivity is key for us. Therefore, this role will appeal to someone who enjoys generating ideas, stimulating debates and is generally willing to get stuck in.
