6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

New Revenue Growth from Innovation Portfolio

The actual revenue generated by new products, services, or business models that you've championed and scaled within the business unit.

Target · Generate £5M - £10M+ in new, incremental revenue within 3 years for your business unit.

In Q4, a new subscription service, incubated by your team, contributed £1.2M in net new revenue, exceeding its target by 20%.

Return on Innovation Investment (ROI)

The financial return achieved on the overall budget allocated to the innovation portfolio you oversee, demonstrating efficient use of capital.

Target · Achieve a 3x return on the innovation portfolio budget over a 5-year horizon.

After 4 years, the total revenue generated by your portfolio is £15M against an initial investment of £5M, showing a 3x ROI.

Innovation Maturity Score Uplift

Improvement in the business unit's ability to consistently innovate, as measured by a recognised organisational innovation maturity framework (e.g., Doblin, Stage-Gate).

Target · Increase the business unit's innovation maturity score from Level 2 to Level 4 within 2 years.

Our internal assessment showed an increase from 'Ad-Hoc' to 'Systematic' in our approach to Horizon 2 innovation, moving us up two levels.

Strategic Alignment of Innovation Portfolio

The percentage of active innovation projects that directly contribute to the top 3 strategic pillars of the business unit or enterprise.

Target · Ensure 80%+ of the innovation portfolio is directly mapped to and actively supporting the top 3 corporate strategic pillars.

At the last portfolio review, 85% of our 20 active projects clearly demonstrated alignment with our 'Digital Transformation' and 'Customer Centricity' goals.

C-Suite & Board Confidence

The level of trust and confidence that executive leadership and the Board place in your innovation strategy and execution.

You're regularly invited to present at Board meetings. Your proposals for significant funding are typically approved. C-suite members proactively seek your counsel on strategic direction. They'll often refer to your work when discussing the company's future.

Cultural Integration of Innovation

How well innovation practices and mindsets are embedded within the broader business unit, beyond your immediate team.

Business unit leaders are actively championing innovation initiatives. We see a measurable increase in employee participation in innovation programmes. Other departments are adopting Lean Startup or Design Thinking principles in their own work, even without your direct involvement.

Talent Attraction & Retention within Innovation

Your ability to build, inspire, and retain a high-performing team of innovation professionals.

Your team has low voluntary turnover compared to industry benchmarks. We're attracting top-tier talent for innovation roles. Your team members are regularly promoted into more senior roles both within and outside your direct remit.

External Recognition & Thought Leadership

The extent to which the company is recognised externally as an innovator in its field, often linked to your influence.

We're winning industry awards for innovation. You're invited to speak at major industry conferences. Our innovation work is featured in relevant publications. Competitors are trying to poach your team members or replicate our innovation approach.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy

Driving Large-Scale Transformation

You'll spend your days crafting multi-year strategic roadmaps, securing significant funding, and leading complex organisational change programmes. You'll get a real buzz from seeing a business unit fundamentally shift its direction and capability under your guidance.

Successfully launching a new business venture that diversifies our revenue by 10% over five years, fundamentally changing our market position.

Building New Capabilities & Teams

You'll be hiring, mentoring, and empowering a large team of innovation professionals, creating a culture where bold ideas are encouraged and strategic risks are managed. You'll love seeing your team grow and deliver impactful work.

Growing your team from 25 to 50 people in two years, and seeing several of your direct reports step up into senior leadership roles.

Operating at the Strategic Apex

You'll be regularly engaging with the C-suite and Board, presenting strategic options, influencing enterprise-level decisions, and shaping the very future of the company. This role is for someone who thrives on high-level strategic impact.

Presenting a new M&A target to the Board that aligns with our long-term innovation strategy, leading to a successful acquisition and integration.

What frustrates people

Strategic initiatives getting deprioritised by short-term pressures or quarterly earnings targets, even after significant investment.
Dealing with deeply entrenched corporate politics and resistance to change from senior leaders who prefer the known over the unknown.
The 'Handoff to Nowhere' at a much larger scale, where a multi-million pound venture struggles to scale because the receiving business unit lacks the incentive or capability.
M&A integrations failing to deliver on innovation synergies due to cultural clashes or lack of strategic foresight.
Constantly justifying the value of innovation against the 'corporate immune system' that instinctively rejects anything disruptive.

What this role does not give you

A predictable, stable environment with minimal ambiguity – this is anything but.
A role where you're always in direct control of all resources and outcomes – influence is key, not authority.
A guarantee that every strategic initiative you launch will succeed or even see the light of day.
A quiet, heads-down role focused purely on individual contribution; this is about leading and influencing at scale.

8Who you work with

This role directly impacts the multi-year strategic direction, revenue growth, and competitive advantage of a significant business unit. You'll be responsible for identifying and commercialising innovations that could generate £2M-£10M+ in new revenue annually, fundamentally shaping our market position and future viability.

Inside the business

C-Suite (CEO, CSO, CFO, CIO)
Business Unit Managing Directors and their leadership teams
Heads of Product, Marketing, and Technology
Finance and Legal departments
The Board of Directors

Outside the business

Strategic external partners (e.g., tech vendors, startups)
Industry analysts and thought leaders
Potential M&A targets
Key clients and customers for co-creation

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

A proven track record (16-20 years) of leading significant innovation programmes or strategic initiatives within a large, complex organisation or a top-tier consulting firm.
Demonstrable experience in managing multi-million pound P&Ls or budgets, with clear accountability for strategic outcomes.
Extensive experience building, leading, and mentoring large teams (25+ people), including managers.
A history of successfully influencing C-suite executives and Board members, securing buy-in for high-stakes strategic ventures.
Deep expertise in designing and implementing organisational change programmes, specifically around innovation and new business model development.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

As a Director of Innovation Strategy, your time is incredibly valuable. Imagine reclaiming dozens of hours each week, not just for yourself, but for your entire team. AI isn't here to replace strategic thinking; it's here to amplify it, letting you focus on the big bets and complex challenges that truly move the needle.

We're embedding AI into our daily workflows to help you cut through the noise, accelerate strategic analysis, and empower your teams to deliver breakthrough innovation faster. This isn't theoretical; it's about practical applications that give you an unfair advantage.

Accelerated Strategic Trend Analysis

Use advanced AI platforms to scan thousands of global news sources, patent filings, academic papers, and venture capital reports. Get synthesised 'signal reports' on emerging technologies, geopolitical shifts, and consumer behaviours that could impact our multi-year strategy. This turns weeks of manual research into hours of strategic review, letting you spot the next big disruption before anyone else.

AI-Powered Portfolio Optimisation

Feed your innovation portfolio data (project status, funding, market potential, risk factors) into AI models. Get real-time recommendations on where to allocate resources, which projects to pivot or kill, and how to balance Horizon 1, 2, and 3 investments to maximise long-term ROI. It's like having a super-smart co-pilot for your multi-million pound portfolio decisions.

Executive Communication & Board Report Drafting

Use Large Language Models (LLMs) to draft first versions of board presentations, strategic memos, or investor updates. Provide key data points, strategic narratives, and desired outcomes, and let the AI structure and articulate your message. You'll spend less time on formatting and more time refining the strategic content, ensuring your message lands perfectly with senior stakeholders.

Generative Scenario Planning & Option Exploration

Leverage AI as a strategic sparring partner. Input complex market conditions, competitive moves, and technological advancements, then ask the AI to generate multiple plausible future scenarios and strategic options for your business unit. This helps you explore a wider range of possibilities and identify unforeseen risks or opportunities, enhancing the robustness of your long-term plans.
