Helia, as Australia’s first Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) provider, with over 50 years expertise in the Australian housing market are in the process of re-inventing ourselves.
We exist to accelerate financial wellbeing through home ownership, now and for the future. Our mission is to create innovative and tailored solutions in partnership with our customers. We aim to do this efficiently and conveniently, leveraging state of the art technology and data solutions.
Overview of the Strategic Development Function
The Strategic Development Function plays a critical defining and implementing Helia’s strategic aspirations.
This newly created team has combined the following functions to enable a more disciplined focus on key strategic priorities across the business:
Group Strategy, Business Planning & Strategic Reviews
Strategic transformation with a particular focus on growing the LMI market
Custodian of Helia’s strategic agenda and oversight of the integrated workplan
New Product Development
Corporate Development / Inorganic Growth
Management of existing investments in adjacenct businesses (e.g. Household Capital, Tiimley)
Management of relevant non lending partners to explore new growth opportunities
Communications & PR (Internal and External)
Government Relations – with a particular focus on increasing the awareness of LMI to better inform housing policy
Strategy Manager
The Strategy Manager is an integral part of the Strategic Development team, assisting the Head of Strategy & Growth with development, refinement and delivery of the Helia Strategic Plan in collaboration with key stakeholders.
Key to this role is ensuring focus on critical strategic priorities and initiatives across the full business, ensuring successful implementation and achievement of Helia’s strategic ambitions.
This role requires a combination of analytical skills, strategic thinking, understanding of market trends, and business principles. A background in consulting will be highly beneficial. Strong presentation (ppt) and visualisation skills are essential.
The successful candidate will be comfortable with ambiguity, and interpreting feedback/responding to requirements of multiple senior stakeholders. While a strong understanding of LMI is beneficial, it is not critical to the role.
Responsibilities
Help to drive development of the Helia multi-year strategic plan with key stakeholders, ensuring an “outside in” and integrated approach
Support the annual strategic planning process including coordinating SLT Strategy days (2 p.a.) and Board Strategy days (3 p.a.)
Develop the strategy artefacts and communication tools to ensure alignment to the strategy across all stakeholder groups (staff, customers, investors, etc) and support their roll out
Critically assess the potential impact of various strategic initiatives, including determining viability, desirability and feasibility to enable prioritisation
Application of strategic frameworks and scans to the Helia environment
Lead adhoc strategic reviews with relevant business owners (e.g. broker strategy)
Develop regular reporting on the external environment (geo-political, economic, regulatory, customer, technology) to articulate the implications for Helia (i.e. risks and emerging opportunities)
Draft documentation to support workshops and Board meetings as relevant
Adhere to the compliance obligations relevant to the position; perform duties in an ethical, lawful and safe manner; undertake training as directed by the Compliance Leader; report and escalate compliance concerns, issues and failures; and disclose potential conflicts of interest
Innovation, Agility and Helia Values
The role sits within a unique, ‘growth orientated’ function of the business – working closely with stakeholders across the business and challenging the status quo to drive meaningful change across the business
Expected to role model the desired innovative, creative and agile culture and to demonstrate optimism and a growth mindset
The role is required to drive clarity of and alignment to the Helia strategy and is encouraged to experiment with different approaches, frameworks and formats
The role will often require creative problem solving to move from a ‘blank sheet of paper’ and a handful of conceptual ideas to more concrete concepts and actionable strategies and initiatives
To be successful the candidate will need to work collaboratively and cross functionally and leverage the technical expertise of others
Capabilities - Required

Commercial acumen and market awareness/intelligence
Ability to work collaboratively with a broad range of internal and external stakeholders
A natural disposition towards action - making an impact by doing rather than talking

Understanding of financial performance metrics and levers
Team player who works collaboratively with others to shape the future direction of the organisation
Understanding of Board processes
