Diversity and inclusivity

We value a workforce where people’s diverse backgrounds and experiences bring different perspectives and fresh ideas resulting in the development and spread of life-changing innovations. All regional Health Innovation Networks are signed up to the collective Health Innovation Network's diversity, inclusion and equality pledges. 

Our team, our culture

Our values and behaviours are central to our work and how we operate in our day-to-day work life. We encourage a successful work/life balance and support hybrid working, plus training allowances to support your personal development and career goals. Our staff engagement groups shape the organisation’s culture to allow our people to flourish despite times of challenge, change and high demand. We actively uphold values of innovation, inclusivity, collaboration, achievement and trust.

Part of a wider network

As the innovation arm of the NHS, and one of fifteen organisations established by NHS England in 2013, we are uniquely placed to take what works locally and spread it across large geographies. Find out more.

Discover the local area

Health Innovation Wessex is based at the University of Southampton Science Park in Chilworth, close to central Southampton and easily accessed from the M3 and M27 motorways, and Southampton Parkway train station.

We are located in bright modern offices, with free parking and a café and networking spaces on site. 27 acres of the Science Park site are designated a protected Conservation Area and staff are encouraged to explore them.

Set in the heart of the south of England, there's plenty to do in Hampshire. Come and join us!
