Global Head of Social Impact and D&I

5 days ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom Simply Business Full time

Here's what you'll be doing:

You'll be a T-shaped leader: in other words, while your depth of expertise and passion is about Social Impact and Diversity and Inclusion (D&I), you're a great leader, eager to make your mark through leading our D&I and Social Impact teams.

Reporting to Alissa (Chief People Officer), your time will be split across: Social Impact (approx 50%), Diversity and Inclusion (approx 50%).

This role is a fixed term contract for 6 to 12 months.

As our Global Head of Social Impact and D&I, you'll:
  • own and deliver the Global Social Impact strategy, including effective governance of impact reporting. This includes leadership of the company's commitment to volunteering; employee and company fundraising; customer social impact and community partnerships; and greenhouse gas emissions and reduction.
  • collaborate with the leadership team in the UK and US to determine and measure strategically-aligned goals; support senior leaders in sponsoring the social impact strategy.
  • deliver the global D&I strategy, ensuring the right priorities for our UK, US and Shared Services populations.
  • lead a small team of Social Impact & DEI program managers.
We're looking for someone who is:
  • a proven strategic and operational leader with experience leading global teams and partnering with senior and executive leadership.
  • experienced in working with a diverse, geographically dispersed, global employee base.
  • commercially-minded and able to embed the Social Impact and Diversity and Inclusion strategy into the business.
  • financial Services experience is a plus, but not a must.
  • able to show a track record of being a change agent both internally and externally, with a proven ability in galvanising groups towards a common vision.
  • in possession of programme management skills, including the ability to develop and implement plans and timelines.
  • able to analyse and interpret data and use it to tell a compelling story internally and externally, alongside translating analyses into meaningful recommendations and actions.

(We know it's tough, but please try to avoid the confidence gap. You don't have to match all the bullet points above to be considered for this role.)

We encourage people of all different backgrounds and identities to apply. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive, supportive place for you to be you and do your very best work.

If you're able to earn trust quickly and build relationships with any member of the business, apply today.

About Simply Business

We insure small businesses and enable big dreams – not just for our customers, but for our people and communities too. With over 1,000,000 active insurance policies, we protect builders, bakers, landlords and more than 1,200 other trades.

We're a technology company as well as one that sells insurance. That means we build, we fail, we learn and we improve. We're a B Corp too, which recognises our strong track record of having a positive impact on people, society and the environment.

What are the benefits of working at Simply Business?

We offer a great work-life balance where every team member has a manageable workload and the flexibility to work hybrid.

On top of the 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), we offer leave that suits your needs. Plus the option to buy five more days of holiday with your flexible benefits.

Our flexible parental leave allows you to approach an important time how you want – with six months full pay to the primary caregiver and four weeks full pay if you're the secondary caregiver.

Our life event leave is an extra days leave every two years for those big moments in your life like moving house or your birthday. And as a thank you to our long-serving employees we offer a two week paid sabbatical after five years of service, then four weeks off after ten years of service.

And our core benefits can put your mind at ease with private medical insurance through BUPA, that covers any pre-existing condition. And a health cash plan that covers your everyday medical expenses.

We also make sure you're compensated fairly with a competitive salary based on your experience and the market we're in. Plus the potential to earn an annual bonus based on performance.

There's access to the tools to support your personal development with programmes on our dedicated learning platform. As well as support for your mental health with access to counselling.

We'll match what you put into your pension up to five per cent. And pass on a tax-free sum that's four times your basic salary with our life assurance policy, with the option to increase it to ten times through our flexible benefit scheme.

Our salary sacrifice car scheme gives you the option to buy a brand new, fully insured, and maintained car for a convenient fixed monthly amount taken from your gross salary (after 6 months service).

And our flexible benefits scheme gives you an allocated amount to use each year on benefits like critical illness cover, dental insurance, travel insurance, or a gym membership.

Ready to join us and drive our success as a high-performing team? Apply today.
