CIEH is a professional membership body dedicated to improving health and wellbeing. We are a registered charity established by Royal Charter, based in the UK, but operating globally. We also run one of the country's most sustainable venues, 15Hatfields. Most of our staff now work remotely across the UK, except our venue team, who are based at 15Hatfields in London.
On behalf of our 7,500 members and the wider environmental health profession, we campaign and provide information and evidence on environmental health issues to the Government and other key decision-makers.

We're advocates, activists, educators and experts dedicated to improving public health and wellbeing and supporting the profession. If that’s something you’re passionate about and want to make a difference, take a look at our vacancies below.
Senior leadership and governance roles
As the tenure of our current President, Mark Elliott, comes to an end, CIEH is seeking to appoint a President‑Designate who will take office as President from 1 January 2027.
This is a senior ambassadorial and governance role at the heart of the environmental health profession, providing visible leadership, advocacy and representation in the public interest. The role also plays an important part in the organisation’s governance as a member of the Board of Trustees.
Working closely with the Chair, Deputy Chair, Board and Executive Management Team, the President provides support and constructive challenge, helping to shape the future direction of CIEH and the profession.
The role of the President includes:
- acting as the leading ambassador for CIEH and the environmental health profession
- advocating for environmental health and promoting CIEH’s mission, values and strategic priorities
- representing CIEH with governments, regulators, partners and other key stakeholders
- serving as a focal point for CIEH in the media and at high‑profile events
- providing thought leadership and raising public awareness of environmental health issues
- contributing fully as a trustee to the Board of Trustees, supporting strong governance and strategic decision‑making
- engaging with members across all nations and regions
Each President brings their own approach to the role and is encouraged to adopt a unifying theme for their term, aligned to CIEH’s strategy and public benefit obligations. A planned handover period with the current President will support a smooth transition.
We are seeking a respected and influential leader with strong professional credibility, excellent communication skills and a commitment to inclusive, values‑driven leadership.
Applications are welcomed from both CIEH members and non‑members, and we particularly encourage applications from individuals who reflect the diversity of the profession and the communities it serves.
