Summary
Job role: Strategy Lead
Team: HMCTS Strategy Unit - Strategy and User Insight Division
Directorate: Strategy, Analysis and Planning
About us
Courts and tribunals underpin justice and affect the lives of millions every year. We process more than four million legal cases a year, ranging from serious crimes to traffic offences, civil claims and family law cases as well as appeals against decisions made by employers, public bodies and other organisations. We are exceptionally proud of the services we provide and of the important part they have played in our history as a nation founded on justice, human rights and fairness. We are now transforming to meet the changing demands of the population and to respond to the technological opportunities of the 21st century, making sure our justice system continues to lead the world. You can find out more about what we do and how we work here.
We are looking for ambitious policy or strategy professionals – or those with good policy/strategy skills who are interested in developing this further – to join the Strategy Unit that sits at the heart of HMCTS. These roles will involve working closely with teams across the whole MoJ and Judicial Office, operations and with wider stakeholders to drive high quality strategy development and deliver a range of priority projects to support the HMCTS Board and executive team in delivering ministerial and judicial priorities.
About the roles
The Strategy and User Insight Division sits at the heart of HMCTS, working across the whole organisation to use expert insight on the needs of our users and business, the policy context,
operational priorities and wider strategic trends to develop and drive organisational strategy. We work with senior leadership and engage with colleagues across HMCTS, the Ministry of Justice and wider justice system to help the organisation to meet strategic challenges and innovate.
The work of the Strategy Unit includes:
• Working with senior leadership to set out future priorities and shape the strategic vision and direction of HMCTS in the medium to long-term.
• Leading HMCTS engagement on judicial strategy and policy development.
• Carrying out research and generating insight on both domestic and international trends that may impact on the future shape and direction of the justice system and feeding this into strategy development and decision making.
• Working with analytical colleagues to understand and use data in driving decision making across a wide range of topics including capacity, performance and productivity.
• Developing relationships across the justice system to ensure that HMCTS is engaged in policy and legislative development that may impact delivery of services.
You will be part of a small but high performing group of Strategy Leads within the Division, working with one of two G6 joint heads of the Strategy Unit and as part of a wider G7 leadership team covering Strategy and User Insight. This will be a varied role as we grow the team and you will be combining research, engagement, analysis, strategy development, shaping and providing advice to senior audiences and delivering your own projects.
These roles will involve working closely with others – this will include Service teams who are responsible for the operational implementation of policy, MoJ policy teams, the Court and Tribunals Joint Unit, the Judicial Office, analysts and colleagues in the wider Strategy and User Insight Division. We are looking for a candidate who excels at working with and through others, has a good understanding of and interest in strategy and policy development and can think strategically and analytically to proactively drive change.
