New Business and Relationship Manager - Community Mental Health

ICB, Commissioners, Private and Case Management Referrals

Full Time Opportunity | Hybrid/Remote | National Coverage

Salary: Up to £60,000 (DOE) + Millage

Overview

At Compass Associates, we’re excited to partner with one of the UK’s most dynamic providers of private healthcare, specialising in community care within the fields of Mental Health and Complex Care. Together, we’re looking to recruit a dynamic New Business and Relationship Manager to join their Mental Health division, with a focus on expanding their services nationwide.

As the Commercial Manager, you will play a key role in supporting the growth of the Mental Health division, including expanding their service offerings on a national scale. While this provider is already well-established and recognised in the South of England, they are eager to extend their reach further across the South and Midlands.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing, nurturing, and securing new packagers with commissioners and ICB’s across the UK. This role offers an exciting opportunity for any current Commercial Manager or Business Development Manager within the mental health sector who is looking to join a smaller, independent provider with a clear focus on growth.

The Role

As the New Business and Relationship Manager for the organisation's Mental Health division, you will join a well-established team dedicated to supporting adult patients with a Mental Health diagnosis, such as Depression, PTSD, Eating Disorders and Personality Disorder. The division focuses on helping individuals live as independently as possible in the community and away from an inpatient setting.

You will play a pivotal role in expanding their mental Heath services across the organisation’s footprint, not only in the South of England but also on a national scale. As a result, you will be expected to travel nationally, meeting with new ICBs, commissioners, clients, and attending industry events to build relationships and, ultimately, secure new care packages.

This role follows a hybrid model, where you'll primarily work remotely from home and travel across the UK as needed. You'll also be expected to visit the HQ once maybe every three months and this is based in West Sussex.

The Candidate:

The ideal candidate will be someone who isn’t looking to sit back at home but is eager to get hands-on and dive into the work. You should have a strong background in business development within the healthcare or social care sectors, with experience in a community mental health care provider being highly desirable. You’ll need a proven track record of managing relationships with NHS commissioners, ICBs, and local authorities, as well as pre-existing connections that will enable you to secure new service packages.

You should have a proven track record of success in previous roles, including meeting sales targets and driving growth, while maintaining an analytical mindset that helps you overcome any challenges that may arise.

Essential Criteria

• Extensive experience in business development, sales, or account management within health and social care.


• Established network within the mental health sector


• Knowledge of funding models, including private, ICB, and NHS pathways.


• Strong understanding of CQC regulations and care commissioning processes.


• Demonstrated success in achieving sales targets and driving growth.


• Excellent communication and negotiation skills.


• Analytical mindset with exceptional problem-solving capabilities.


• Self-motivated, highly organised, and able to manage a complex sales cycle effectively.


• UK based, and hold a valid driving license
