About this opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to shape how leadership is defined, experienced and measured across Lloyds Banking Group. As we deliver Accelerate 2030, strong leadership will be central to sustaining performance, simplifying how we work and turning strategic ambition into better outcomes for customers and colleagues.

Reporting to the Culture, Leadership & Talent Director, you’ll own the Group-wide leadership agenda. You’ll turn our leadership philosophy from a framework into the everyday operating standard for leaders, creating clear expectations, practical habits and a connected system that reinforces them through performance, talent, succession, recruitment and development.

This is a strategic role with a strong delivery edge. You’ll get close to the commercial agenda, navigate a complex matrix and create momentum through others, building a leadership proposition that is practical, measurable and capable of being delivered at scale.

What you’ll be doing

· Set the enterprise leadership strategy, translating Accelerate 2030 into clear priorities, standards and outcomes grounded in customer needs, performance and simplification.

· Own and embed leadership principles, defining the practical habits and non-negotiable standards expected of leaders and integrating them into the moments that shape leadership behaviour.

· Create one connected leadership proposition, removing duplication and linking development with culture, talent, performance, reward, coaching and team effectiveness.

· Build leadership capability at scale, strengthening accountability, change leadership, strategic thinking, inclusion, customer focus, digital and AI leadership, and high performance.

· Turn strategy into disciplined delivery through clear programmes, governance, measures and accountabilities, enabling delivery through others across a complex organisation.

· Demonstrate measurable impact by tracking behaviour change and credible links to team performance, colleague experience, talent, customer and delivery outcomes.

· Shape future leadership talent by strengthening succession and accelerating the leadership populations and capabilities the Group will need next.

Why join us?

You’ll have enterprise-wide visibility, senior sponsorship and the opportunity to influence how leadership works across one of the UK’s largest organisations. You’ll combine the best external thinking with the scale, reach and purpose of Lloyds Banking Group, creating an approach that improves outcomes for customers, colleagues and the business.

What we’re looking for

Essential requirements

· A substantial track record of setting and delivering leadership strategy or enterprise-wide leadership transformation in a large, complex organisation.

· Deep expertise in leadership development, behaviour change and the organisational systems that shape leader performance.

· Commercial judgement and executive-level credibility, with the ability to connect leadership choices to business outcomes and constructively challenge senior stakeholders.

· A strong record of turning strategy into action through disciplined programme delivery, clear governance, measures and accountability.

· The ability to lead through a matrix, join the dots across organisational boundaries, mobilise limited resources and deliver through others.

Desirable skills/experience

· Experience gained in management consultancy, leadership advisory or major organisational transformation.

· International experience or work across complex stakeholder environments.

· Experience using technology, data or AI to personalise leadership support, extend reach or measure impact.

This is a place for you…

Our ambition is to be the leading UK business for diversity, equity and inclusion, supporting our customers, colleagues and communities. We are committed to creating an environment in which everyone can thrive, learn and develop.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and launch a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative.

We offer reasonable workplace adjustments for colleagues with disabilities, including flexibility in office attendance, location and working patterns. As a Disability Confident Leader, we guarantee interviews for a fair and proportionate number of applicants who meet the minimum criteria for the role and have a disability, long-term health or neurodivergent condition, through the Disability Confident Scheme.

We provide reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process to reduce or remove barriers - just let us know what you need.

Ready to make an impact?

If you’re excited by the opportunity to shape leadership at enterprise scale and can combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now and help us build the leadership required for the next chapter of Lloyds Banking Group.

At Lloyds Banking Group, we're driven by a clear purpose; to help Britain prosper. Across the Group, our colleagues are focused on making a difference to customers, businesses and communities. With us you'll have a key role to play in shaping the financial services of the future, whilst the scale and reach of our Group means you'll have many opportunities to learn, grow and develop.

We keep your data safe. So, we'll only ever ask you to provide confidential or sensitive information once you have formally been invited along to an interview or accepted a verbal offer to join us which is when we run our background checks. We'll always explain what we need and why, with any request coming from a trusted Lloyds Banking Group person.

We're focused on creating a values-led culture and are committed to building a workforce which reflects the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Together we’re building a truly inclusive workplace where all of our colleagues have the opportunity to make a real difference.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
