Nesta, the UK's innovation agency for social good, is seeking a skilled Policy Strategist to join our team. As a Policy Strategist, you will play a crucial role in driving impact on our mission goals by developing and influencing policy to achieve them.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop fresh, robust policy recommendations on our Missions by working with experts across Nesta.

  • An ability to draft policy proposals clearly and concisely, and to make complex ideas easy to understand.
  • An understanding of research methods and evidence gathering, along with an ability to translate technical information into simpler forms.
  • The ability to manage a portfolio of projects, coordinating the input of others and ensuring deadlines and objectives are met.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and an appetite to engage and persuade external stakeholders.
What We Offer

Nesta offers a range of benefits, including private medical insurance, dental insurance, the ability to buy and sell annual leave, eyecare vouchers and more. This role is based in London, with a hybrid working arrangement. We offer a range of flexible working arrangements and encourage our people to take advantage of them.
