About the Role

The Planning team at the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) sets the strategic direction for EDB's work by:

  • Determining EDB's targets and priorities needed to deliver good economic outcomes for Singapore and Singaporeans.
  • Assessing EDB's progress on these targets and priorities, and making recommendations on areas requiring further investigation and management attention.
  • Sensing for global and domestic trends that may warrant a review of EDB's ambitions, strategies or tactical approaches.

We work closely with the senior management team on these issues and develop content for discussion at key platforms such as management retreats, Board discussions, and our International Advisory Council meetings. Through these activities, we also set the tone for EDB's internal as well as external communications, and stakeholder engagement.

Key Responsibilities

We are currently looking for a Manager/Senior Manager to do Strategy Development. In this role, you will:

  • Assess opportunities or threats to Singapore's competitiveness and EDB's economic strategy in light of domestic and global trends and conduct deep-dives where warranted.
  • Manage and drive adoption of strategy frameworks and processes within EDB, such as opportunity scanning and sizing, the strategy choice cascade and design-thinking.
  • Engage stakeholders within and outside EDB to drive common understanding of EDB's work and how we contribute to the Singapore economy, build strategic coherence, and deploy appropriate change management interventions for effective strategy execution.
Requirements

Candidates should possess the following:

  • A strong sense of intellectual curiosity – as manifested in a willingness to explore new ideas, engage with individuals to uncover new points of view. Background in economics and consistent reading of international business and economics publications is a plus.
  • Ability to quickly synthesise current/past work on a given topic (whether through literature reviews or reaching out to the right people), and identify the delta to focus efforts on.
  • Proven ability to logically structure and substantiate an argument, including designing testable hypotheses that can be quickly validated with data or stakeholder engagements.
  • Ability to influence internal/ external stakeholders to translate ideas to tangible strategy improvements and organizational change, while being sensitive to organizational dynamics and ground realities.
  • Be a self-starter with the ability to work in an unstructured environment, and flex in different teams as an individual contributor, manager or peer leader.
