The Strategy Analyst supports the Chief Strategy & Transformation Officer (CSTO) in translating strategic priorities into structured plans, clear governance, and disciplined execution. The role helps close existing governance and coordination gaps by tracking strategic initiatives, supporting prioritisation, and ensuring actions, decisions, and dependencies are visible and followed through.

Operating at the interface of strategy and transformation delivery, the role combines analytical support with light project management and administrative coordination. It enables the CSTO to focus on strategic leadership by taking ownership of the “doing”: preparing materials, maintaining oversight of priorities, coordinating inputs across teams, and ensuring strategy-related activity progresses in line with agreed direction.

Analysis & Insight Support:

• Conduct analysis to support strategic thinking (e.g. options analysis, market or internal data review)

• Prepare concise briefings, summaries, and slide packs for senior stakeholders

• Support ad-hoc strategy work as required by the CSTO

Stakeholder Coordination & Information Flow:

• Act as a coordination point where required between the CSTO, the strategy team and other functions
