We plan to spend £16bn over the next ten years, funding new discoveries in life, health, and wellbeing, and taking on three global health challenges: mental health, infectious disease and climate and health.

These challenges need the bold science we support, but they won’t be solved by science alone.

Our vision is a world where no one is held back by mental health problems. Our mission is a step change in early intervention for anxiety, depression and psychosis. To make this a reality, we fund the discovery and development of transformative interventions, from medicines and digital technologies to psychosocial supports, and work to ensure that the most promising innovations reach the people who need them most.

You will provide technical expertise to inform how the most promising innovations are adopted, scaled and sustained, with a particular focus on access in the UK and in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), particularly in Africa.

Working closely with colleagues across Wellcome and external partners, you will help align the critical pieces needed for successful implementation, including financing, supply, policy, and uptake pathways. By embedding access planning across the full lifecycle of product development, you will ensure that the most promising innovations are positioned to achieve real-world impact at scale

You will also contribute to shaping the vision and practice of market access within the Mental Health Programme, building approaches that integrate with wider work on health systems, financing and economic analysis. Beyond technical strategy, you will help strengthen internal processes, support key negotiations, and develop strategic partnerships that accelerate the adoption of mental health interventions in and low- and middle-income countries. In doing so, you will play a critical role in turning breakthrough science into sustainable solutions for communities most affected by mental health disorders.
