Overview
Transparency International UK (TI-UK) is the UK Chapter of the world’s leading anti-corruption organisation, Transparency International. We are a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee.
Corruption is the abuse of entrusted power for private gain. It hurts everyone whose life, livelihood or well-being depends on the integrity of people in a position of authority. Corruption holds back economic development, prevents markets operating fairly for businesses and consumers, and further exploits already marginalised people. At TI, we focus on world-class research and advocacy designed to analyse the problems and provide realistic solutions.
In 2014 Transparency International established the Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Programme (PHP). This global programme’s goal is to raise anti-corruption standards within the pharmaceutical & healthcare sector so to enable better health outcomes and increase access to medicine. Having completed a pilot year the Programme is moving into its first operational year and will involve research, advocacy, grant disbursal and global health policy components. Transparency International UK is seeking to appoint a Senior Project Officer who will report to the Director of the PHP.
