Have you got exceptional written communication skills with the ability to deliver complex information succinctly?

Can you develop a range of policies or projects using project management techniques?

If so, we’d love to hear from you!

We have an exciting opportunity to join the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles within the Department for Transport as Head of Private and Leaseholder Infrastructure Policy.

The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) is a joint Department for Transport/Department for Energy Security and Net Zero Unit, working to support the transition to zero emission vehicles. This includes charting a long-term path to a fully zero emission road transport fleet and ensuring the UK makes the most of the economic opportunity this offers.

OZEV leads a portfolio of policies, regulations and programmes to deliver this goal and position the UK at the global forefront of the zero-emission vehicle transition (cars, vans and HGVs).

The charge point market is crucial to the zero-emission vehicle transition and everyone in the UK should be able to charge at accessible, safe and fairly-priced infrastructure.

The role will lead the creation and delivery of the policy and regulatory framework to support this transition, by removing barriers to the private and leasehold charge point market.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Lead and manage a team of three staff members
  • Developing and delivering high quality policy and actions to remove barriers to the private and leasehold charging market
  • Build and maintain strong relationships across Government to understand emerging issues and to push for changes.
  • Develop an expert understanding of the market area and briefing senior staff and ministers on proposed policy solutions
