This role sits within the Office of Trade Sanctions of Implementation (OTSI) in the Department for Business and Trade.

It is an exciting time to join the Department to work on trade sanctions. The Department established OTSI in 2024 to strengthen the implementation and enforcement of trade sanctions. OTSI's priorities include supporting businesses with trade sanctions compliance, raising awareness of trade sanctions, issuing licences, and detecting and responding to suspected breaches. OTSI works closely with businesses, international partners, and other government organisations to deliver these priorities.

Sanctions are a vital foreign policy and national security tool. The UK deploys sanctions to isolate, restrict or change the behaviour of the actors targeted and to send a wider message. Trade sanctions in particular aim to restrict access to UK goods and expertise and limit revenue generation. DBT has a greater role to play in sanctions than ever before, to ensure that our voice is heard on sanctions decisions which impact UK growth and business, and to ensure that OTSI’s capabilities are fully utilised in the service of UK foreign policy and national security.

We are therefore looking for a talented and motivated HEO to join OTSI. The role offers an excellent introduction to trade, foreign and security policy issues - increasingly high-profile policy areas which attract ministerial and parliamentary interest.

OTSI's policy team is responsible for creating, maintaining, and amending policies for OTSI. The team also leads on legislation that relates to OTSI's implementation of trade sanctions and contributes to the development of new sanctions measures. Responsibilities of this role include:

  • Owning the development of policies from the point of inception to the point of conclusion, including collecting and analysing evidence, working with policy, analyst, and legal officials, and providing clear advice to senior civil servants and ministers.
  • Effectively working on multiple policies simultaneously to deliver ministerial priorities and strengthen UK sanctions implementation.
  • Working on UK sanctions legislation, where necessary to give effect to trade sanctions implementation policy, and where other teams are developing new sanctions measures.
  • Contributing to team priorities, including responding to correspondence on policy questions and drafting guidance for the public.

In this role, you will need to develop a good understanding of UK trade sanctions legislation.
