About the Electoral Commission

The Electoral Commission is the independent body which oversees elections and regulates political finance in the UK. We work to promote public confidence in the democratic process and ensure its integrity.

We are responsible for ensuring that political parties and campaigners in the UK comply with the laws in place to ensure transparency and free and fair elections.

About the role

We are recruiting for the Head of Policy, a senior leadership position in our Communications, Policy and Research directorate. The Policy Team is made up of 10 policy specialists working across the Commission’s key areas of responsibility including both electoral administration and political finance regulation. The team plays a vital role in developing and communicating both the Commission’s proactive policy agenda and its response to legislation and electoral events.

The Head of Policy leads the strategic and operational delivery of the Commission’s work to:

  • Scrutinise policy and legislation proposed by Governments and Parliaments
  • Review and report on elections and referendums
  • Identify and deliver policy reviews to make recommendations for changes to electoral administration and political finance legislation
  • Ensure the Commission’s policy positions are robust and underpinned by relevant data and evidence.

The Head of Policy will also be the Commission’s primary point of contact for senior external partners in relation to electoral and political finance policy.

The postholder will lead and inspire the Policy Team to deliver this work. The postholder will also be part of a directorate and Commission-wide senior leadership team, with influence over the strategic direction of the Commission’s work.

You will be adept at building strong relationships and navigating complex stakeholder networks, and will work to ensure a wide range of stakeholders engage with and value the work of the Electoral Commission. You will bring creativity and well-honed analysis and communication skills to our policy development and influencing work. You will have excellent knowledge of the UK’s governments and legislatures, including the devolved governments in Scotland and Wales.

You will be able to plan, organise and manage people, time and resources, and manage projects to budget and on time.

Working at the Electoral Commission

The Electoral Commission offers excellent terms and conditions, including flexible working hours and the opportunity to join the Civil Service pension arrangements (dependent on scheme rules) which include a valuable range of benefits.

We want to attract the broadest range of talented people who are passionate about democracy. The more diverse our workforce, the better we can adapt to and reflect the needs of society. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and as a staff member you will become part of an inclusive culture, where you will have the opportunity to achieve your full potential and enhance your career through learning and development.
