Want to play your part in shaping policy in London?
These are challenging times for public services. We are looking for a highly motivated person with enthusiasm, innovative ideas and the ability to work flexibly in a dynamic, quickly changing policy environment.
Although this is a generic policy post, the immediate need is in the Strategic Policy Group. Contributing to policy development, you will work across a range of cross-cutting policy areas, including helping to shape London’s Recovery and Renewal following Covid 19; fostering social integration; promoting public safety and violence reduction - as well as broader strategic policy co-ordination.
The role will require that you analyse policy and statistical information, commission research, draft reports and provide concise policy recommendations to support London boroughs in making London a better city.
You will apply this analysis and policy development to improve results for Londoners and to make London’s case to both central government and a range of critical stakeholders in London government.
You will also have the ability to build effective relationships across sectors, communicate, negotiate with and influence a diverse range of stakeholders, as well as experience of creative problem solving and managing a varied workload of projects in a pressurised environment.
The role will give you the opportunity to apply your talents with a degree of autonomy to help develop potential solutions to some of the most interesting challenges that local government is likely to face over the next five years.
