The Maternal Mental Health Alliance (MMHA) is seeking an inspiring new Chief Executive to take over from our interim CEO and guide the organisation through the next stage of its development.

This important role involves working with staff, MMHA members, parents with lived experience, partners and our Board of Trustees to drive forward the MMHA’s mission: ensuring women and families affected by perinatal mental health problems have access to high-quality, compassionate care.

We will be anonymising applications before shortlisting. To make this easier, please ensure that your cover letter includes your initials rather than a full name.

Applications should be sent to recruitment@maternalmentalhealthalliance.org, by 10am on Tuesday 28 January 2025. Applications received after this time, or which do not follow the requested process, will not be considered.

The first interviews are expected to take place in London in early February, provisionally on Wednesday 5th or Thursday 6th.

The MMHA has recently been awarded a 5-year grant by the National Lottery Community Fund to tackle maternal mental health inequities through community action.

The Maternal Mental Health Councils project will develop, test and replicate a model of community-based decision-making, support and service provision that is led by women with lived experience. The aim is to achieve system change locally and nationally to improve the mental health of marginalised women and is the next phase of the MMHA’s programme to tackle maternal mental health inequities across the UK.

With this funding, we are pleased to be recruiting for an exciting new National Programme Manager role to lead this important work and be an integral part of creating change for families across the UK.
