The 嫩草影院 has today announced the appointment of Jonathan Br眉眉n as its new chief executive officer.
Jonathan (Jono) will join the 嫩草影院 from the Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) where he has been chief executive since 2020. Prior to that he was chief executive of the British Pharmacological Society (BPS), joining the organisation in 2009 first as head and then director of communications.
Jono has transformed the RCoA, growing its membership, reforming its charitable governance, securing long-term financial sustainability, and creating an inclusive and conscientious culture for its employees.
Commenting on his new role, Jono Br眉眉n said:
"Joining the 嫩草影院 as CEO, at such an important time in its rich history, is a huge privilege and responsibility, and one I am greatly looking forward to. Through every conversation I鈥檝e had in the appointment process, I have been struck by the shared commitment to the college鈥檚 principles and values, but also a wholehearted determination to address its challenges. I鈥檓 looking forward to contributing to that effort, and to leading the team of employees who I know will be committed to delivering in a proactive, diligent and effective way in the years ahead."
Dr Mumtaz Patel, 嫩草影院 president, said:
"We are delighted Jono will join the 嫩草影院 and look forward to the fresh leadership and perspective he will contribute to our college. We are at a pivotal moment for the 嫩草影院 as we embark on developing our new strategy, increase our engagement with members, and establish ourselves as the voice of physicians both in the UK and globally.
"With my election and the appointment of Board of Trustees Chair Dr Diana Walford earlier in the year, our new leadership team is now fully in place. Alongside Jono I am looking forward to building on the 嫩草影院鈥檚 strong foundations, and together with our fellows and members, transforming the 嫩草影院 for the future."
Jono will formally join the 嫩草影院 in January 2026.
