This role is available Full and Part time (minimum 0.8 FTE)

This is a permanent appointment supporting the long-term operation and strategic direction of the organisation. The Deputy Director will report to the Director for Circular Economy and work closely with senior leaders across the directorate and the wider department.

Core Responsibilities:

Leadership of G6-led teams spanning the following:

• Agrifood and Textile Circularity: This includes delivery of a series of interventions to minimise food waste, maximise the redistribution of unavoidable edible food waste and optimise investment in and the development of infrastructure capacity to process food waste (a key dependency for the Simpler Recycling reforms, part of the Government’s Major Projects Portfolio) and to drive forward work with industry to drive approaches to textiles circularity. This is a priority for Ministers.
• Transport, Electricals and Batteries Circularity: Stewardship of the existing regulatory regimes for batteries, electric vehicle, electrical waste and vapes; implementation of regulatory reforms in relation to batteries as required under the Windsor Framework; delivery of publicly announced commitments to the reform of the waste electrical regime (e.g. in relation to online market places); alignment with EU regulation on the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHs).
• Circular Economy Strategy: Publish and oversee delivery of England’s first Circular Economy Strategy for England, which will map out our delivery of the Government's manifesto commitment to reducing waste by moving to a circular economy. A circular economy is one in which we move away from linear resource use - extracting resources, making them into products, and discarding them at the end of their lives - and towards a reality where we reduce primary resource use and reuse, repurpose, refurbish, and repair our products. The Circular Economy Strategy for England will set out the interventions that government will make across the economy to deliver this transformation, all while driving economic growth, investment, and skills development. Develop the strategic approach to deliver the Net Zero commitments for the waste sector, statutory waste reduction targets and oversight of EU regulatory commitments under the Windsor Framework.

• Lead a multidisciplinary team, including externally seconded subject matter experts, operating as a senior leader at both directorate and departmental levels.
• Inspire and empower others through proven experience of building, leading, and transforming high-performing multidisciplinary teams, setting clear strategic direction aligned to business needs.
• Act as an open and inclusive leader and people manager, capable of leading through ambiguity and coaching and developing diverse teams.
• Provide strong policy-to-delivery leadership, including overseeing complex systems change and regulatory reform, co-designing solutions with regulators and complex supply chains.
• Lead major projects, with end-to-end responsibility for user-centred service design, including digital services, and stewardship of complex regulatory systems.
• Advise ministers and senior officials across a complex, high-profile, and often contentious policy portfolio
