Political & Regulatory, Consultant

2 weeks ago


London, United Kingdom Teneo Full time

**The Role**:
The work of the Political & Regulatory team includes advising senior clients on political developments; helping clients to shape and respond to government policy proposals; developing communication strategies that showcase client best practice; supporting clients to communicate their positions to political stakeholders; identifying and tracking political risks; commissioning original research on client areas of interest; and working to ensure political issues are considered in broader communications campaigns.

Consultants work into and learn from our Senior Consultants, Associate Directors, Directors and Managing Directors, with the structure of each team varying across clients, based on the scope and client need. They are role models for junior colleagues, and actively contribute to making Teneo a stimulating, stretching and dynamic place to work.

**The Political and Regulatory team at Teneo**:
Recent events have demonstrated the impact political choices have on business. The instability caused by Brexit, the response of governments to COVID-19, and ongoing economic headwinds have all significantly changed business’ operating environment for companies of all sizes and across all sectors. Political choices also influence the wider macro-economic environment, such as inflation or cost of living, meaning that the ‘political’ is a growing factor in decision-making for business leaders.

We work closely with colleagues in other practice areas across the business, and with other business units, such as our financial advisory team and our management consultancy colleagues.

**Key attributes**:

- Build good client relationships and provide strong coordination for client work and teams
- Stay well informed, with a passion for politics, policy and current affairs generally, and sharing knowledge with teams and clients
- Offer credible and relevant client counsel and advice, drawing from understanding of the client’s business model
- Understand the importance of managing deadlines and proactively communicate about progress against them, including upward management where required
- Reliable and responsive with a positive attitude and willingness to get involved without waiting to be asked
- Contribute to the team’s connectivity and insight by developing own external network within the political and policy sphere
- Identifying opportunities for new business and organic growth for existing clients
- Develop relationships with colleagues in London and around the world
- A positive, flexible and ambitious team player

**Skills and Experience**:

- Around 3-5 years’ experience in a political or policy role, or a communications role with significant political or policy aspects to it
- Experience generating high quality political or communications research and analysis - including recommendations for action - in a useable and engaging way
- Desirable: Experience of policy development via experience with a think tank, another agency, a party-political role, or similar in-house position
- Excellent oral and written communications skills, tailoring style of communication to the intended audience
- Ability to build and sustain good client relationships
- Appetite to build their own skills and knowledge
- Enthusiasm about creativity and campaigning, including working with and across different communications disciplines to deliver maximum impact
- Proactively seek and develop new and better ways of delivering client work
- Work well under pressure, problem solving independently of senior team when required
