**Job description**:
**Strategy Lead - Role Overview**

The Strategy Team sets the long-term direction for the Valuation Office Agency across its three strategic objectives.

These are; providing trusted valuations efficiently, delivering an excellent customer experience and being a great place to work.

We work with policy, operations, and the central functions to define and prioritise the Agency’s short, medium, and long term aims.

The Strategy Team sits within the broader Strategy and Transformation Group, working across all aspects of the Agency to provide teams with the structure and expertise to develop and land transformation successfully. We ensure alignment between major programmes and smaller transformation projects by providing a holistic picture for the Agency.

The Strategy Team has an important role leading the development of various VOA strategies and supporting the transition of strategy into design and delivery for the agency.

As the Strategy Lead, you will own and lead challenging projects with significant responsibility and autonomy, working collaboratively across the agency. You’ll be required to influence key stakeholders and inform senior decision-making about the VOA’s priorities and the action needed to deliver these goals.

You will work closely with the other members of the Strategy Team in delivering our priorities and will lead your own small team, as well as supporting and steering colleagues in wider corporate work.

- Leading a series of high-impact strategy projects with tangible impacts, including identifying opportunities, testing strategic assumptions, developing evidence-based recommendations, conducting related analysis activity, and ensuring buy in from all stakeholders.
