Welcome

Thank you for your visiting this dedicated recruitment microsite and your interest in the role at Young Epilepsy. We are a charity that has been transforming the lives of children and young people with epilepsy for over 125 years.

We are seeking a new Head of IT to join our senior management team. You will lead the organisation’s IT strategy as well as the day to day activities, and work directly with operational managers and directors across the organisation.

At Young Epilepsy we’ve led the way in an inclusive, progressive and nurturing approach to the education and support of children and young people with epilepsy.

Epilepsy can be one of the most frightening and isolating conditions a child can experience. There’s a loss of all sense of safety – not knowing when and where their next seizure will happen, who’ll be there and whether they’ll be hurt.

Today, more than ever, Young Epilepsy is dedicated to standing up with and for children and young people with epilepsy. We’re here for them. It’s our job to listen and work with them so they can fulfil their potential.

Our renowned health and medical research partnership has contributed greatly to international medical breakthroughs and improvements in diagnosis and treatments.

We campaign for children’s rights. We support young people in school, college and university. We deliver cutting-edge health services and provide innovative tools, information and practical help for living everyday life. Together we create possible.

We very much look forward to receiving your application.

Nazar Al-Khalili,

Director of Finance, IT & Facilities
