Crynodeb

The Strategy Unit provides advice and support to ExCo, the Chief Executive and the Board on parliamentary engagement, the relationship with the sponsor department and engagement with other government departments. It supports the development of cross-IBCA strategic policy, is responsible for running and administering the secretariat for IBCA’s top-level governance structures, and oversees the running of IBCA’s private office support to the CEO and Directors.

Opportunities to move to the new Infected Blood Compensation Authority (IBCA). At the moment all IBCA roles are hosted by Cabinet Office within the Civil Service. However, once IBCA becomes operational, it is anticipated that most of these roles will transfer to IBCA, which is a new Arms Length Body (ALB) separate from the Cabinet Office. Roles that transfer to IBCA from Cabinet Office will maintain the same or substantially the same terms and conditions of employment that are overall no less favourable. It is anticipated that employees who move from Cabinet Office to IBCA will be able to continue to participate in the Civil Service Pension arrangements with no break in their pensionable service. Roles commencing after IBCA has become operational will be with IBCA itself on similar terms and conditions. All successful candidates will receive full details of the terms and conditions of employment for their role with their formal job offer.

Please note that the mission of IBCA means that it is likely to be operational for a period of approximately 5 to 7 years. When IBCA’s work begins to wind down, IBCA employees will receive support and practical guidance to find a new role, whether in the Civil Service, another Arms Length Body (ALB), or an external employer.

In this role you will be one of 3 Grade 6's in IBCA’s central Strategy Unit. The successful candidate will thrive in working in a dynamic, delivery-focused environment and be confident communicating with senior stakeholders. Your strengths will include collaborating with a range of colleagues on common goals and you will be an able and experienced leader of a diverse team of people, supporting the development of staff to reach their full potential.

Key deliverables and responsibilities for the Head of Strategy role will include:

  • Overseeing IBCA’s parliamentary engagement, and provide advice and information to ExCo, the Chief Executive and the Board on this;
  • Leading the management of IBCA’s relationship with CO, its sponsor department, and with HMT, including ministerial engagement, providing advice to the CEO, ExCo and the Board where required;
  • Supporting engagement with the devolved administrations on the infected blood support schemes and their transfer into IBCA;
  • Developing and implementing cross-IBCA policy and strategy at the request of ExCo / the CEO, bringing together relevant teams across the organisation to deliver this;
  • Designing, leading and managing the plan of activity for your team, while remaining agile in the face of competing priorities;
  • Modelling positive behaviours and developing a supportive and inclusive team environment.
