Chief Executive Officer

The British Society for Heart Failure (BSH) was established 27 years ago as a professional society for clinicians and associated professionals in heart failure. Our vision is that heart failure is a national priority, NHS resourcing is significantly increased, policymakers, healthcare professionals and society are aware of the causes, impact and burden of heart failure, and undiagnosed and late diagnosis heart failure is dramatically reduced. We are looking for our next Chief Executive to lead us through the next phase of our journey as we grow our membership and extend our reach and impact. This is a significant leadership appointment. Although our staff team is small, our activity is national, with opportunities for further international collaboration. The work we support has huge impact and our 25in25 research and Quality Improvement initiative could be globally significant. We are keen to hear from accomplished leaders with extensive experience in complex organisations, and ideally of working in membership organisations and the non-profit sector. A visible and innovative leader, you will be able to inspire and influence at all levels, with the vision, energy and presence to represent the breadth of our work. You will bring maturity of judgement, alliance-building capability and a track record of enhancing organisational credibility. You will bring a flexible and entrepreneurial approach to identify opportunities for the BSH, including diversification of income. Finally, you will have the strategic leadership skills to move the organisation to the next level. If this opportunity excites you and you have the skills and experience to lead the BSH into its next chapter, please visit
