responses to international consultations) and contribute to internal briefings for senior stakeholders.- This will involve monitoring and engaging with specific international multilateral and multistakeholder policy processes (e.g.

the UN Global Digital Compact, the UNESCO Internet for Trust initiative) to identify areas of interest for Ofcom and coordinate Ofcom's contributions to these workstreams as necessary. It will also involve coordinating and contributing international input to briefings and preparatory materials in support of external engagements by senior Ofcom colleagues.
