Nav is an award-winning CEO, campaigner, and leading advocate for separated parents in the UK and internationally. He works at the intersection of family breakdown, mental health, and public policy, improving how systems respond to separation and strengthening early intervention across family and safeguarding services. Called to the bar, an alumnus of the NHS Gateway to Leadership CEO programme, and having helped establish the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), his career spans a rich intersection of law, healthcare executive leadership, and public sector reform. As a recipient of the 2022 GSK King's Fund Impact Award and the founder of The Family Services Foundation, he is committed to reducing conflict, improving co-parenting outcomes, and supporting better long-term outcomes for children.

Nav’s professional commitment is profoundly shaped by his own lived experience of divorce. Following a very difficult separation, which brought him to the brink of completing suicide, he became a single parent with full-time responsibility for his son. His work draws attention to the critical link between family breakdown, parental conflict, social isolation, and increased suicide risk. Today, he channels that experience to drive systemic reform, serving as a trustee of the Association for Male Health and Wellbeing, and sitting on the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory Stakeholder Advisory Council and The Racial Justice Family Network, as well as other national and international advisory panels to strengthen safeguarding, combat anti-discriminatory practice, and shape family support systems.
