The Foundation for Science and Technology is a respected UK charity that provides a neutral platform for debate on science, research, technology, and innovation policy. Since 1977, it has convened leaders from Parliament, government, industry, academia, and the third sector to explore how science and technology shape public policy and society. As our current Chief Executive prepares to step down after seven successful years, we are seeking a visionary leader to guide the Foundation into its 50th anniversary and beyond. You will oversee our flagship policy events, lead the Foundation Future Leaders programme, and develop new initiatives that strengthen the UK’s science and technology ecosystem. We are looking for someone with a professional background in science, engineering, technology or medicine - whether from industry, academia, government or the charitable sector. You’ll be a skilled communicator and natural convenor, intellectually robust with a deep understanding of how policy is shaped across sectors. Experience in event delivery, team leadership and financial management is essential. This is a unique opportunity to influence national policy, support emerging leaders, and shape the future of science and technology in the UK.
