JOB TITLE: Business Support Manager - Group Public Affairs (9 month FTC)

Salary: £68,202 - £75,780

HOURS: Full time

LOCATION(S): London

WORKING PATTERN: Our work style is hybrid, which involves spending at least two days per week, or 40% of our time, at one of our office sites.

About this opportunity

Just as the UK's nations have increasing power over their public policies, devolution deals across England mean that regional policy makers, alongside those in Westminster and Whitehall, have an important role to play in making decisions that affect our business and customer objectives.

Through the Group Ambassador Programme, we strive to enhance the reputation and influence of Lloyds Banking Group (LBG), enabling us to play an important advocacy role for policies and ideas that will support resilience and recovery across the UK. Be it the supply of quality housing, opportunities posed by green finance, or even how the apprentice levy can benefit small businesses, we are passionate about securing advocacy for proposals that will help the UK's nations and regions to recover - and prosper.

Are you interested in playing a part in this programme? Then we've got news for you: an exciting opportunity has arisen to join Group Public Affairs (GPA) on a 9-month fixed term contract as a Business Support Manager (BSM). You'll be responsible for enhancing the Group's reputation by supporting the Ambassadors for the East and South-East of England in their role as trusted and credible influencers within these regions, thereby helping to amplify and promote the Group's main strategic priorities. We're looking for a high-calibre colleague who's engaged and passionate to work with us from no later than February 2025.

The BSM is a member of the wider GPA team, made up of colleagues from a variety of political, policy and industry backgrounds. The main focus areas will be political engagement and public policy advocacy, with a requirement to use traditional and social media to enhance the Group's reputation and secure engagement with our policy positions in these regions. The BSM will be required to maintain and build a good political network in the East and South East of England.

Key responsibilities

• Devising a comprehensive regional engagement strategy.

• Preparing and briefing Ambassadors ahead of meetings with political stakeholders.

• Political monitoring of political and public policy issues relevant to the Ambassador's regions.

• Convening, and preparing for, roundtables and bilateral meetings with regional stakeholders including local MPs, Metro Mayors, Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) leaders (both virtually and face-to-face within the region or Westminster). This will require travel to and around both regions.

• Supporting the delivery of division-wide engagement and policy advocacy campaigns e.g. The Big Conversation 2020.

• Developing and delivering comprehensive political engagement plans for the Ambassadors, crafted to deliver LBG's strategic priorities. While balancing this with 'reactive' engagement on topics which matter to regional stakeholders e.g. support for business, domestic abuse, inclusion, branch closures etc.

• Developing good working relationships with local MPs, thereby becoming a trusted and known LBG contact for the region's stakeholders.

• Identifying, escalating and mitigating emerging risks arising from decisions taken by the Group in the region.

• Representing the Group at, sometimes difficult, political meetings and functions with regional government officials, trade bodies and other opinion formers.

• Responding swiftly (and socialise with other GPA peers) to enquiries or complaints from politicians. This could involve monitoring of political activity during weekends or bank holidays.

• Providing expertise and input into government consultations specifically affecting the regions.

• Working with social and traditional media agencies to develop opportunities for being recognised for our social activity and, ultimately, to increase advocacy of our ideas. This will involve managing the Ambassadors' Twitter handles ensuring co-ordination with Group handles where required while embracing opportunities for bespoke content.

About us

We're on an exciting journey to transform our Group and the way we're shaping finance for good. We're focusing on the future, investing in our technologies, workplaces, and colleagues to make our Group a great place for everyone. Including you.

What you'll need

• Curious about the social and cultural forces that affect the environment in which the Group operates.

• Ability to learn quickly and to grasp regional politics, media and policy debates impact the Group and its activity.

• Experience in, or knowledge of, managing and developing content for core social media channels.

• Ability to provide timely and reliable briefing and counsel to Ambassadors (and other relevant senior leaders as required).

• Can prioritise workload optimally.

• Adaptability in a fast-changing environment driven by political and media demands.

• Proactive networking skills both within the bank and externally.

• Ability to analyse and interrogate quantitative and qualitative data sets, assessing trends and insight to aid the development of political engagement resources.

• Curiosity about the external environment through extensive reading of a wide range of current affairs sources, and participation in external events such as seminars, roundtables and similar activities.

• A willingness to develop networks and the familiarity of broad range of influencers in politics, devolved government and public affairs.

• The role is a key part of the GPA agile pool and is expected to show adaptability at short notice to help colleagues across GPA and GCA to meet the needs of the business whenever they arise.

It is required that candidates have experience of working with external stakeholders (political or media), managing reputational challenges and risks, and good knowledge of corporate affairs. We have a flexible working arrangement and expect colleagues to come into the office at least two times a week to enable team collaboration.

Job Advert

Are you innovative and people focused? Are you experienced in driving change, employee engagement and people development? Are you
authentically values-driven? Do you share our belief in the power of good relationships, and the potential that is in all people
to live good lives and put their past behind them?

Pact , the Prison Advice and Care Trust, the national charity for people affected by imprisonment, is seeking a new Director of
People to join its Senior Leadership Team to ensure effective and efficient delivery of our people and learning and development
goals and our strategic business plan, and to help shape our workplace culture, as we continue to grow and develop.

Reporting to the CEO, this role is critical in ensuring that our c400 colleagues and 500+ volunteers have the values, skills, and
workplace culture, that will enable them to thrive, and deliver excellent services. In addition to acting as a strategic business
partner and trusted advisor to senior leaders, you will have the professional business administration and leadership skills to
help us build the right business processes, systems and structures, for maximum efficiency and cost effectiveness, so that our
managers and frontline workers can focus fully on delivery. You will help us modernise, to keep our core costs as low as
possible, so that even more of our resources can be spent to support people to cope with the impact of prison, and live good lives
after release. But you will be more than your technical and business skills. You will be a people person too, and a role model
and ambassador for Pact’s ethos and values.

You will take a strategic leadership role in developing the capabilities of our managers, developing and implementing our
business plan and people strategy, in alignment with the overall goals and values of the charity that have been developed over 125
years. You will lead initiatives that foster a sense of engagement and community and a ‘one team’ approach, for our dispersed
workforce of small teams that deliver services in c70 prisons and a range of other locations across England and Wales. You will
help build a culture of trust, collaboration and inclusion.

Key responsibilities include shaping our approach to talent management, and developing our recruitment and retention strategies,
including embedding EDI into all aspects of the management and development of people to ensure we are able to attract, engage and
retain a diverse and inclusive workforce. You will also share our passion and commitment to facilitating opportunities for people
with lived experience of the criminal justice system to shape our thinking and be part of our workforce.

It is essential you are MCIPD qualified (or have evidence of working at this level) with senior HR and workforce development
experience, including implementing your strong working knowledge of employment law and HR best practice and delivery of learning
and development. You will also have experience of managing change, systems and business process improvement. As an experienced
manager, you will have the skills to lead and inspire our People Team which includes the Training Manager, and Heads of HR and
Volunteering as direct reports.

If this sounds like you, and you are committed to Pact’s mission, vision and values, then we would love to hear from you.
