Full job description

At NAVEX, we’re transforming the world—making it safer, more ethical, and ensuring every voice is heard. That’s real impact.

Our high-performance culture is driven by our values. We move with speed, passion and purpose — as one team. We are bold in our ideas, accountable in our actions, and committed to doing the right things right.

The Director of Strategy & Operations is an execution-oriented strategist with an international lens, based in London alongside the Chief Strategy Officer. You will own complex strategic initiatives globally, with particular focus on EMEA and APAC markets, and work directly with the CSO and business leaders on NAVEX's most important strategic priorities. This is a global role.

You’ll thrive in this hybrid role surrounded by an engaged, collaborative team deeply committed to your success. Join us and help shape what’s next!

What you’ll get:

Meaningful Purpose. Your work helps organisations operate with integrity and protect their people—at a scale few companies can match.
High-Performance Environment. We move with urgency, set ambitious goals, and expect excellence. You’ll be trusted with real ownership and supported to do the best work of your career.
Candid, Supportive Culture. We communicate openly, challenge ideas—not people—and value teammates who embrace bold thinking and continuous improvement.
Growth That Matters. You can count on authentic feedback, strong accountability, and leaders invested in your success so you can achieve real growth.
Rewards for Results. We provide clear, competitive compensation designed to recognize measurable outcomes and real impact.

What you’ll do:

Own the strategic substance and outcomes of priority growth and value creation initiatives sponsored by the Chief Strategy Officer
Lead complex cross-functional programmes with clear accountability, timelines, and measurable outcomes
Shape and evolve NAVEX’s enterprise strategy by synthesising market, customer, financial, and operational insights into clear strategic recommendations
Act as a strategic thought partner to the Chief Strategy Officer, pressure-testing ideas and representing the CSO perspective in working forums as appropriate
Help structure ambiguous problems into clear workstreams and decisions, amplifying the impact of analysts and specialists across the team
Prepare executive-level presentations, decision memos, and briefing materials for senior leadership and board discussions
Identify strategic growth opportunities and operational expansion initiatives
Evaluate investment opportunities, market adjacencies, and competitive positioning
Support corporate development initiatives including market scanning, partnership evaluation, M&A assessments, and build/buy/partner analysis

What you’ll bring:

Bachelor’s degree in Business or related field (MBA preferred)
8+ years of experience in McKinsey/Bain/BCG/Kearney/Oliver Wyman/Deloitte Consulting/Accenture/EY Parthenon and/or corporate strategy, growth strategy, or related roles
Management/operating experience at a high-growth technology company is preferred
Proven experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives and influencing senior stakeholders
Exceptional communication, executive presentation, and stakeholder management skills
Proven ability to balance strategic planning with hands-on operational execution
Familiarity with AI-enabled workflows, automation platforms, and business intelligence tools
Strong strategic judgment with the ability to operate independently in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
Strong EMEA Market knowledge (APAC exposure is a plus)
Culture Agility. Comfort working in a fast-paced, candid environment that values innovation, healthy debate, and follow-through
AI Readiness. Curiosity and willingness to use AI and emerging technologies to elevate your work and deliver smarter outcomes
Fuel performance and outcomes. Leverage your job competencies and champion NAVEX’s core values

Our side of the deal:

We’ll be clear, we’ll move fast, and we’ll invest in your success. You deserve to be supported, challenged, and rewarded for the impact you make—and we commit to doing that every step of the way.
The starting pay for this role is 120,000 GBP with a 15% MBO. Discover how you can grow, lead, and make an impact by visiting our career page to learn more. NAVEX is an equal opportunity employer committed to including individuals of all backgrounds, including those with disabilities and veteran status.
