The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is responsible for welfare, pensions and child maintenance policy.

DWP is responsible for:

  • helping people to move into work and supporting those already in work to progress, ensuring employment opportunity for all
  • helping people to plan and save for later life, while providing a safety net for those who need it now
  • providing effective, efficient, and innovative services to the millions of claimants who rely on us every day, including the most vulnerable in society
  • improving experience of our services while maximising value for money for the taxpayer

You will be at the heart of our operational delivery, with the proud aim of improving people’s day to day lives, helping build financial resilience and a more secure and prosperous future.

These are key roles that require flexibility and versatility, to help us deliver excellent customer service, make sound decisions, implement change and lead others.

This job would be ideal for people who have a passion for public service. It is a great opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of the people of Scotland.

Our Senior Operational Leader roles require strong leadership skills in an operational environment.

We are looking for transformational leaders – inspiring colleagues through difficult situations, setting high standards for leadership, and building high performing teams. You will monitor and drive performance, lead, coach and empower teams and make sound decisions.

You will be responsible for the line management responsibilities of staff, over multiple sites. We value visible leadership, taking a personal lead in engaging with and communicating key messages and implementing corporate change. You will be office-based (these are not hybrid / home-working roles), frequent travel between Jobcentres and within the community will be a feature of all roles.
