Can you communicate concisely and accurately with sensitivity to confidentiality?
Do you have a keen interest in policy and law with a willingness to develop your knowledge further?
If so, we’d love to hear from you!
Policy professionals work at the heart of the Civil Service to design, develop and propose appropriate courses of action to help meet key government priorities and ministerial objectives.
You will work in a small, dynamic team on a range of high-profile tasks. These could include drafting briefings and ministerial correspondence, investigation, conducting research, identifying trends, and producing evidence-based advice and guidance in conjunction with subject matter experts.
You may have line manager responsibilities as part of your role.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Providing initial draft responses to correspondence from customers, stakeholders and Ministerial and other official correspondence using agreed standard lines and precedents for task manager’s approval on policy area of responsibility within required deadlines.
- Providing advice, guidance and briefing to operational and project colleagues and to support and assist task manager, providing first drafts of submissions, consultations and impact assessments.
- Supporting pre-consultation data-gathering and research from a range of sources (stakeholders, customers, lawyers and operational colleagues) to help support the development and delivery of new, evidenced based policy initiatives as sanctioned by the Cabinet Office and Agency approvals processes or changes to existing policies.
- Developing and maintaining appropriate knowledge within specialism, reviewing legislations and liaising with lawyers as necessary to help inform changes to existing policies or the introduction of new initiatives that align with Government Departmental or Agency strategy (with the focus on enabling digital services).
