The Private Office and Ministerial Support and Parliamentary Team is one of the largest and most dynamic teams in DCMS involved in all aspects of departmental business. This role heads up one of four DCMS ministerial offices, and is responsible for supporting the Minister across their joint DCMS-DSIT brief. As a result it requires close working with colleagues in DSIT private office and the management of two DSIT members of staff.

The wider DCMS team includes the Private Offices of the Permanent Secretary, the Special Advisers and the two Directors General. In addition our support team handles all correspondence, FOIs and parliamentary business on behalf of the Department. Our team is crucial to the successful running of the Department - we are here to help our Ministers and senior officials deliver their priorities from Sports and Gambling to Media and Digital Infrastructure, and to support the Department in working with them.

Minister Lopez’s office sits at the heart of two of the most exciting departments in Whitehall - the Departments for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT). While the role is recruited and held by DCMS, the post holder will oversee a broad brief across both departments covering Media, Creative Industries and Tourism (DCMS) and Digital Infrastructure and Data (DSIT).
