Partnerships Officer
We are hiring a Partnerships Officer to join our Suicide Prevention Action Lab (SPAL) team.
We’re bringing together six representatives from financial services firms to explore ways to improve support for customers experiencing suicidality. The Partnerships Officer will play a key role in supporting the delivery of the SPAL, working closely with participating firms to assist them in developing, testing, and implementing practical changes to help prevent suicidality.
The role focuses on building and maintaining strong relationships with partner organisations, supporting firms throughout their participation in the programme, and ensuring they remain motivated, accountable, and on track to deliver their commitments.
The Partnerships Officer will manage relationships with multiple firms simultaneously, each at a different stage in their journey to testing and embedding new and improved approaches to identifying and supporting customers experiencing or at risk of suicidality. Success in the role requires excellent organisation, persistence, and relationship management skills, alongside the ability to understand the challenges and competing demands faced by participating firms and to support them in maintaining momentum and delivering results.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop their skills in partnership management, stakeholder engagement and influencing change within organisations. The role offers significant autonomy and responsibility, with opportunities to build expertise, lead stakeholder relationships, and contribute directly to the SPAL’s growth and impact.
While the role will predominantly focus on the SPAL, the postholder will also contribute to the continued development of the wider Action Labs research-to-impact offer.
The annual salary is £34,884 full-time equivalent. We are based in east London, but this post can be offered on a hybrid-working basis with twice weekly travel to our London office.
The deadline for applications is 8am on Monday 27 July 2026. Interviews will take place during the week commencing 3 August 2026 in-person at our east London office.
