Anne Mcbride serves as Professor of Employment Relations within the Department of People, Management and Organisation at Alliance Manchester Business School, University of Manchester. Her academic profile centers on healthcare workforce inequalities, gender and diversity in employment relations, and skill mix implementation in primary care settings across global contexts.
Her research interests integrate intersectionality frameworks to analyze structural bases of inequality in healthcare management, focusing on occupational segregation along gendered and racialized lines. This work examines how employers, managers, and HR professionals perpetuate systemic inequities while identifying pathways for transformative change that extends beyond traditional equality, diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Mcbride's publication trends reveal consistent focus on skill mix transformation in primary care (2022-2024), industrial relations through intersectional lenses (2023-2024), and academic engagement with policy practitioners (2021-2025). Her work demonstrates interdisciplinary reach across healthcare management, industrial relations, and gender studies with strong policy relevance.

As primary supervisor for four PhD candidates between 2008-2017, Mcbride has guided research on industrial relations in African railways, union renewal strategies, Caribbean skill formation, and public sector employee participation in Brunei. She co-investigated two major research projects: 'An Investigation of the Scale, Scope and Impact of Skill Mix Change in Primary Care' (2018-2020) and 'Collaboration for leadership in Applied Health Research and Care' (2014-2019), securing significant research funding for healthcare workforce studies.
Her academic activities include organizing the BUIRA Study Group workshop on intersectionality (2023) and delivering keynote presentations on feminism in industrial relations (2021) and reflexive academic engagement (2023, 2025), demonstrating active leadership in her research community.
