IN A NUTSHELL
This is a rare opportunity to join an ambitious new organisation that exists to train, support and mobilise anonymous groups of senior staff from powerful industries who are working for a more just and regenerative world.
You'll be one of the earliest staff members in a dedicated team and will play a key leadership role as we grow.
We are looking for someone who is experienced in the world of institutional investment management who is able to be the bridge between the voice of concerned professionals within an industry and the investment community.
In our model individual firms are not mentioned or ‘called out’ but senior professionals share their concerns about the decisions companies across their industry are making with a range of stakeholders, including the investment community.
Your job will be to build an active community of partners within investment management who are interested to hear the insights of insiders and use that insight to inform their engagement with companies within an industry.
We are looking for someone from an investment management/investor engagement background who is entrepreneurial and wants to support our growth; is able to be a powerful spokesperson for the work; is committed to diversity, equity and inclusion; and can bring the support of asset managers and pension funds to the issues raised by our insiders.
ABOUT THE ROLE
You’ll lead the interface between senior insiders and investment managers.
We believe that investment managers want to engage with industries and individual companies on issues that bring long-term social and/or environmental risk. We know insiders wish investors asked better questions and led more effective engagement coalitions with companies across an industry.
Your job will be to make this happen.
You will be the ambassador of senior insiders to the world of asset management - working with existing industry initiatives and networks and large asset managers to engage on critical issues raised by insiders.
You’ll be a self-starter leading your own strategy in an exciting new organisation.
This role is suited to someone who is comfortable working independently in a fast-evolving context, who combines strategic clarity with strong operational delivery, and who is motivated by the challenge of building something new.
This is a hands-on role. There is no delivery team to delegate to, so comfort with rolling up your sleeves is essential.
See www.insidetrack.org.uk for more information.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We expect you will bring 10+ years’ experience in investment management.
More than your CV, we’re looking for a thoughtful individual who:
* Is confident working in high-trust environments and supporting others to act boldly
* Is a strong facilitator
* Is an experienced spokesperson
* Can work collaboratively with partners across investment management, coalitions, corporations and media
* Brings a clear-eyed view on project management — able to write clearly, distil insight, and keep things on track
* Has a strong sense of purpose, and a belief in the role industry can play in meeting social and environmental challenges
* Emotionally resilient and comfortable working in complex, high-trust environments — including when navigating disagreement, organisational politics, or conflicting perspectives with calm, empathy and clarity
* Is operationally very strong and driven to improve operations and processes
* Is committed to the development of others in their team
We are particularly interested in candidates who have had to build things with limited resources and navigate diverse stakeholder dynamics.
WE’RE A GOOD FIT FOR SOMEONE WHO…
* Thrives in building something new and putting systems into a start-up environment where structures are still forming
* Is able to pick up a brief from our insiders in any industry from food, to tech to insurance to finance to advertising and represent that work to investors
* Is motivated by long-term systems change rather than short-term outputs
* Wants to work alongside thoughtful, values-driven collaborators and invests in building relationships for the long term
* Understands the value of working with senior professionals in powerful industries
* Is entrepreneurial, kind, and hardworking — someone who takes initiative, follows through, and approaches others with curiosity and respect.
* We believe that it’s essential to have a diverse and inclusive team to deliver this work effectively and want to make sure anyone we hire is able to help deliver this.
