Description
Client Engagement & Estate Strategy Lead London | £80,000 - £90,000 plus bonus Shape the Future of Healthcare Healthcare is changing. The demands on healthcare estates have never been greater. Organisations are rethinking how services are delivered, how estates support clinical transformation, and how investment can create better outcomes for patients, staff, and communities. We're looking for an experienced Strategic Healthcare Architect to help lead that change. This is not a traditional architectural role. It's an opportunity to work at the forefront of healthcare transformation, partnering with NHS Trusts, healthcare providers, investors, and executive teams to develop the strategies, estate plans, and masterplans that will shape healthcare environments for decades to come. If you're passionate about healthcare, thrive in stakeholder-led environments, and enjoy translating complex clinical and operational challenges into clear strategic direction, we'd like to hear from you. The Opportunity As a senior strategic advisor, you'll work directly with healthcare leaders, clinicians, estates teams, and executive stakeholders to define future service models, estate requirements, and investment priorities. You'll lead conversations that influence major healthcare programmes, helping organisations answer critical questions such as: What should our estate look like in 3, 5, or 10 years? How can our facilities better support changing clinical services? Where should future investment be focused? How can healthcare environments improve operational performance and patient outcomes? From estate strategy and service transformation to master planning and stakeholder engagement, you'll be instrumental in turning ambition into deliverable programmes. What You'll Be Doing Leading Strategic Estate Planning Developing long-term healthcare estate strategies Identifying investment priorities and development opportunities Supporting estate rationalisation and optimisation programmes Translating organisational objectives into practical estate roadmaps Driving Healthcare Transformation Working alongside clinical and operational leaders to understand future service requirements Assessing the estate implications of healthcare transformation initiatives Supporting evidence-based planning and strategic decision making Engaging Senior Stakeholders Facilitating workshops, visioning sessions, and strategic planning exercises Building trusted relationships with executive teams, clinicians, and estates leaders Helping organisations align stakeholders around a shared vision Delivering Strategic Masterplans Leading early-stage healthcare master planning commissions Defining development principles, growth opportunities, and long-term estate frameworks Creating robust plans that guide future investment and project delivery Supporting Growth and Opportunity Development Identifying emerging opportunities across healthcare portfolios Contributing to bids, proposals, and strategic business development activities Helping clients transform strategic ambitions into funded programmes of work About You This role requires more than technical expertise. We're looking for someone who combines strategic thinking with emotional intelligence, someone who can comfortably engage a Trust Chief Executive one moment and a clinical team the next. You'll be naturally collaborative, commercially aware, and passionate about improving healthcare environments. Most importantly, you'll have the credibility and personality to build trust quickly and guide complex conversations with confidence. The Person We're looking for someone who is: Humble enough to listen first, understand different perspectives, and bring people with them on the journey Charismatic enough to command a room, inspire confidence, and build lasting relationships with senior stakeholders
