As an already established senior leader, you will be a big thinker and skilled in strategy development. You will also know how to grow a team and have a passion for driving excellence. You will own and run the connections SteerCo, ensuring the executive leadership group is kept up to date with connections reform and wider developments.
You and your team’s primary objective will be to proactively influence reform and policy development to improve ‘the queue’, improve customer experience and uncover new market opportunities. You and your team will be driving improved stakeholder and customer engagement. Your team will develop opportunities and innovation, whilst assessing risk and financial business cases.
You will be the external advocate for connections, creating excellent stakeholder relationships at the most senior levels across the industry. Attending industry events and forums, using your gravitas and technical understanding to influence change.
