Crynodeb

The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is responsible for driving economic growth across the United Kingdom. This role will be located within the Global Futures Directorate – a central and specialist team led by the Chief Scientific Adviser (CSA): Professor Julia Sutcliffe. We work to ensure the department's decisions are underpinned by a strategic approach to long-term and systematic issues that affect the UK economy, including science, technology, research, development and innovation, as well as net zero, climate adaptation and environmental regulation. We also contain the department’s futures analysis and foresighting capability.

This role will be part of the CSA’s Private Office team, led by the Chief of Staff. The Private Office is responsible for providing a high-quality service to the CSA, supporting them with all aspects of their role, from administrative tasks (e.g. diary management, briefings and travel bookings) to providing an immediate source of policy advice, and leading on urgent tasks. The Private Office also supports the running of the wider Directorate, looking after core business tasks such as finance, people and risk management.

As Science Briefing and Business Support Officer to the Chief Scientific Adviser, you will work as part of a small but tight-knit team focused on ensuring the smooth running of the CSA function and the directorate they lead. You will be required to work on a wide range of tasks, primarily of a coordination and secretariat nature. This is a great opportunity for someone to get direct exposure working for a senior official and science leader in government.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • BRIEFING – 50%: Leading on briefing coordination for the CSA, acting as a single point of contact to ensure that high-quality supporting material is prepared for all relevant engagements, whether for external meetings with businesses, attending cross-government boards or carrying out overseas trade promotion activity.
  • BUSINESS SUPPORT – 50%: Providing diary support for the Deputy Director, including occasional travel coordination for both Deputy Director and CSA.
