Summary

The Prime Minister’s Office enables the Prime Minister to deliver the Government’s overall priorities and to communicate the Government’s policies to Parliament, the public and international audiences. From the Policy Unit and Press Office, Switchboard and Custodians, to the Events & Visits team and Private Office support; the diverse Downing Street team draws on varied expertise from across the Civil Service and beyond. The teams come together to deliver excellent service to the Prime Minister while also making No10 a great place to work.

The Team:

The No10 data science team, 10DS, offers an unparalleled opportunity to develop your career personally and within the Civil Service. Formed in mid-2020, 10DS is here to radically improve the way in which key decisions are informed by data, analysis and evidence. We do this by: 

Enabling No10 to utilise the best available evidence by combining cutting-edge data science with clear, engaging communication throughout the policy and decision-making process, ensuring that the Prime Minister and staff are intelligent customers of analysis, and embedding a culture of evidence-informed policy

Provoking positive change across central government through providing challenge and feedback, and collaborating across Whitehall to drive long-term systems change and collectively solve the most pressing policy challenges

We are committed to having a fantastic team culture - our People Survey scores show 94% of staff would recommend us as a great place to work and 100% of the team felt their manager is considerate of the life outside of work.

We believe that excellence and innovation is only possible with a diverse team, and actively encourage applicants from a range backgrounds.

We are recruiting a Full-Stack Developer to work within 10DS, to enhance and channel the analytical work of the team on critical policy areas and delivery properties of No10. Current members of the team have provided advice on Key Decisions relating to transport infrastructure, Health Policy and Net Zero.

You will be key in creating cross-cutting applications that will help provide insight on the biggest challenges that face the country.

You will have the opportunity and freedom to contribute your technical knowledge for the public good. Working in a ‘startup’ like environment, you will be empowered to focus on making your contributions as impactful as possible.

10DS has a programme of technological development, drawing on capabilities in Python and Typescript. Expertise in these areas will be beneficial and factored into the salary offered.
