The Role

We are recruiting for a Head of Criminal Justice System Data Development at the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) to join our Criminal Justice System (CJS) Data Improvement team. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a warm, collaborative team focused on transforming how data is used across the CJS.

About the Team

The CJS Data Improvement team aims to improve how we use data across the CJS. In the short-term, we will do this by developing innovative new cross-system tools and projects alongside foundational activities that improve data standards, data sharing and data literacy. Long term, we’ll work with stakeholders to shape the future strategy for CJS data.

Why This Programme is a Great Opportunity

· Great potential for using cross-CJS data to improve our collective understanding of the system and to drive better decision-making. Our team leads this change, delivering impactful data projects across the system.

· High impact: The programme aims to transform decision-making with groundbreaking projects, like the development of a linked cross-CJS dataset that will reshape understanding and influence decisions.

· Cross-government collaboration: You’ll work closely with stakeholders across CJS, including the Police, Home Office, Crown Prosecution Service, Treasury, Number 10, Cabinet Office, and MoJ partners like HMCTS and HMPPS. Your work will cross department boundaries and will provide excellent opportunity to lead on working jointly with stakeholders to deliver programme aims.



This role will lead a fast-growing team, scoping, designing, and delivering projects that improve how data is shared, linked, managed, and used across the CJS. You’ll drive early value through short- and medium-term projects that make a tangible impact.

Key Responsibilities:
