Careers with us

We’re Mental Health First Aid England®, a social enterprise. We’re workplace mental health experts, delivering inclusive, market-leading, and evidence-based mental health training and consultancy. With nearly two decades of experience working with over 20,000 organisations, we have a deep understanding of workplace cultures.  

To date, we’ve trained over 1.2 million people in mental health knowledge, awareness, and skills, including nearly 840,000 MHFAiders® in England. 

We all have mental health. Yet there is still a stigma that stops many people from talking about it or seeking help.   

We're working towards a future where everyone can get the support they need to thrive. By joining our team, you'll be helping more people gain the confidence and knowledge to start a conversation about mental health – the sort of conversation that could change lives. 

Together we can create mentally healthy workplaces where people, communities, and business thrive. 

Our values are at the heart of everything we do. 

• Ambitious for change – we push boundaries to help our people and our communities create a nation where everyone’s mental health matters 
• Ahead of the curve – we’re always looking for ways to stay ahead so we can provide the best quality products and services for workplaces where people, communities, and business thrive 
• Community builders – we create a powerful movement with a common purpose to which our employees, clients, and members are proud to belong 
• Focused on impact – we prioritise our efforts and resources on the activities that will make the biggest difference to the mental health of the nation 
• Caring and equitable – we believe that everyone should be seen, heard, and feel like they belong 

MHFA England is a friendly, inclusive and purposeful organisation. As a certified Great Place to Work and an organisation committed to being anti-racist, we believe in empowering our people to bring their whole selves to work.

We're committed to celebrating diversity in all its glory. To empower our people to bring their whole selves to work, we run regular sessions to explore and stay educated on a range of diversity, inclusion and equality topics. 

It's our collective responsibility to create and sustain an inclusive environment. Our Inclusion Network advocates for diversity and accessibility and ensures everyone has an opportunity to be heard at MHFA England. 

We celebrate key moments and events, such as Pride, Black History Month, International Women’s Day and Men's Health Week, because they reflect the diverse makeup of our people. We recognise that our diversity makes us stronger, more innovative, more creative, and this all helps us to better serve our colleagues, our customers and our communities.
