Executive Director, Business Development, Contract Delivery & Partnerships

Welcome …

WithYou wants to see a world where anyone seeking help feels welcome, not judged, and can get support, when and where they need it.

The most important and largest part of what we do are our treatment services which support over 100,000 people with drug, alcohol or mental health issues each year. Our clients are often among the most vulnerable people in society. Many have a personal history blighted by trauma or poverty and many are using substances to anaesthetise the pain they feel. So, they need to be supported by well ordered but flexible services run using the best possible operations and clinical management skills.

WithYou is at the forefront of drug, alcohol and mental health support across the UK.

Led by our team of over 1,600 colleagues and volunteers, we deliver a range of innovative services designed to transform the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in our society, supporting them on their recovery journey. WithYou guide them with well planned services that have the flexibility and creative approach to transform their lives for the better.

To support this, and in alignment with the Dame Carol Black drug review, we have been undergoing a transformation. Starting with our new brand and website, we have been reforming the way we work. We have increased our income and our reach with new services. We are building a new Treatment Pathway to revolutionise how we support our service users through their recovery journey.

We are looking for an Executive Director of Business Development, Contract Delivery & Partnerships who is an inspiring leader, and can grow WithYou’s income by developing new and existing services, programmes and profitable income streams in response to changing user needs and market trends. The person will need to understand service delivery in a complex and dispersed organisation and be an outstanding communicator. We are committed to With You being a diverse and inclusive place to work and we want all of our Executive Team to champion our focus in this area.

It’s an exciting time to join the Executive Team at WithYou, with the development of a new organisational strategy underway for launch in 2025/26.

We want to take the best from the world and apply it in our services in a sustainable way, so that we give our service users what they need and what they deserve. Our services and support give people a real chance to get better and stay well, by not just ceasing their substance use but by resolving the underlying issues that made that their solution of choice.

Thank you for your interest in becoming our new Executive Director of Business Development, Contract Delivery & Partnerships.

If you want to make a difference, come and join us.
