The role is being advertised on a fixed term basis, but there is a possibility of extension depending on business need Don't worry if you think you don't have all the key skills, it might be worth taking the few minutes to apply as we're good at spotting potential and offer a generous training budget. Please download a full job description to find a full scope, deliverables, experience and personal attributes required for this role. Flexible and agile working Everyone's personal situation is different. To make the most out of hybrid working, we've introduced different ways of working, which include (subject to role requirements): hybrid of office (Canary Wharf, London) and home working (there will be an expectation to attend the office, once - twice a week, or more, as required) For more information about our recruitment processclick here Directorate/Department Overview With one in three UK workers saving with Nest and over £40 billion invested on behalf of the UK workforce, Nest is one of the largest pension schemes in the UK. Established in 2010, Nest was set up as a critical pillar of the government's automatic enrolment pension programme, with a public service obligation to accept any employer wishing to use the scheme. Nest exists to deliver better financial outcomes for our members, with a focus on delivering for the low to median earning population we were set up to serve and a commitment to invest responsibly and to return any profit we make to our members. Now that NEST is operating in the market at scale, we are facing into a series of new challenges and opportunities: how can we evolve the business to best serve our membership, taking into account the obligations placed on the scheme due to the nature of our funding arrangements with Government? How should our strategies evolve and how can we best hold ourselves to account for delivering on those strategies? What does external change - in public policy, technology, regulation or consumer behaviour - tell us about how the scheme may need to adapt in future? And how can we influence that change to the benefit of our membership? The Strategy and Transformation Directorate sits at the heart of Nest. It is responsible for defining and overseeing Nest's overarching strategy including our corporate purpose, vision and business priorities, and for helping the business ensure it is delivering in line with that strategic framework. The Directorate helps Nest engage with the outside world, in particular our key partners in government in order that we are best placed to understand and manage the risks and opportunities stemming from external change, including policy change.

How should our strategies evolve and how can we best hold ourselves to account for delivering on those strategies? What does external change - in public policy, technology, regulation or consumer behaviour - tell us about how the scheme may need to adapt in future? And how can we influence that change to the benefit of our membership? The Strategy and Transformation Directorate sits at the heart of Nest. It is responsible for defining and overseeing Nest's overarching strategy including our corporate purpose, vision and business priorities, and for helping the business ensure it is delivering in line with that strategic framework.
