Ben began his career as a medical lawyer and became a healthcare management consultant in 2001. Shortly afterwards he was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer, from which he was given only a 30 percent chance of survival. Upon his recovery he served as the interim chief executive of a Brussels-based healthcare NGO and as an elected politician in south west London, where his responsibilities included overview and scrutiny of healthcare services. From 2006 to 2009, as a director of a private healthcare company, Ben helped establish a new model of cancer care for the south of England.
Ben is presently Director of the Institute of Healthcare Leadership and Management where – together with his colleagues and associates – he designs and delivers education programmes for professionals from hospitals, health services and the healthcare industry.
