About us

In April 2024, IoPPN, King’s College London led the establishment of a national disseminated population mental health consortium, as part of a UKRI funded population health improvement initiative (Population Health Improvement UK- PHIUK). This post will be situated in Department of Psychological Medicine, at IoPPN (Denmark Hill campus), London (KCL) and will work across this partnership. The consortium spans 10+ universities and non-academic partnerships including local government and public health. The consortium challenges areas include children and young people’s mental health, the prevention of self harm and suicide and multiple long-term conditions. In addition cross-cutting areas include: policy, practice and lived experience, data and methods, training and capacity building and inequalities. This role will be based with the central coordinating team at KCL, working alongside the Consortium Co-Director, and will support successful delivery of the programme.

About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for a postdoctoral researcher, with a strong background in public health and mental health research and epidemiology, and with expertise in quantitative and qualitative methods, to develop a programme of work examining upstream social determinants of mental health.
