ABOUT LIZA MCALONAN
A strategic communications specialist with a career spanning government, politics, and the not-for-profit and trade union sectors. I lead communications for mission-driven organisations, helping them build their profile and influence public policy and opinion. I help leaders cut through the noise – communicating complex science creatively and with impact. With a collaborative leadership style, I build strong relationships with stakeholders, colleagues and influencers and manage high-value partnerships. My career highlights have included: Building the Health Foundation’s AI healthcare reputation and influencing government policy, through creative and focused communications including leading major events, securing high-profile media coverage, and increasing media reach by 1400% in 2024. Leading a £1.65m award-nominated national campaign at the Department of Health through excellent relationship building and organisation, that exceeded targets, secured positive media coverage, and drove visitors to gov.uk in three months. Leading Health Foundation change programmes at team- and organisation-level, including hybrid working strategy that required uniting senior peers, securing executive approval, and improving office use through engagement and collaborative leadership.
