Anna Freud is a world-leading mental health charity for children, young people and their families. Our purpose is to take everything that we have learned over the last 70 years, and to transform the mental health of current and future generations of children and young people, to close the gap between mental illness and mental wellness – and to create a more compassionate society for everyone. We listen to and learn from their diverse voices and integrate this with learnings from our science and practice to develop and deliver mental health care.

THE ROLE

This newly created role will join Anna Freud’s Executive Leadership Team and lead the development and delivery of a comprehensive income-generation strategy. With responsibility for driving revenue growth across commercial services, commissioned projects, fundraising and partnerships, you will help achieve ambitious income targets (£25m+ annually) and ensure the long-term sustainability of our clinical, research and training work. Combining commercial acumen with our mission and values, you will also play a key role in shaping our next 3–5 year organisational strategy from 2026.
