• Commercial awareness and the ability to use market insights to identify and develop growth opportunities.
• Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage your workload independently while working collaboratively with colleagues across clinical, operational and marketing teams.

You’ll be proactive, adaptable and motivated to succeed, with the confidence to present to a range of audiences and quickly develop your understanding of the private mental health market.

You’ll also need a full, current UK driving licence and access to a vehicle insured for business use.
