Job description

**Ministerial Assistant Private Secretary at the Ministry of Justice**

HEO

**Private Office and Parliament Directorate**

The Private Office and Parliament (POP) Directorate is recruiting permanently for an HEO Assistant Private Secretary. This is an external campaign open to existing civil servants and those outside of the civil service.

**Location**:
**Ways of Working**

This role is available on a full-time basis.

Please note that this role may require working extended hours for which a Private Secretary allowance is payable.

**Salary**

New entrants to the Civil Service will be expected to join on the minimum of the pay range.

If you are already a civil servant and are successful in an external recruitment competition for a role with us, your starting pay will be the better of:

- promotion terms or transfer terms, as appropriate; or
- pay on appointment arrangements (minimum of pay range)

**Security Clearance**

This role requires National Security Vetting given the access to sensitive information afforded by the job role. You can find more information by reviewing the information held in the following links:
In addition, there is a minimum UK residency requirement set by the Cabinet Office which is dependent on the security level required for the role.

**The Ministry of Justice (MoJ)**

MOJ is one of the largest government departments, employing over 90,000 people (including those in the Probation Service), with a budget of approximately £10 billion. Each year, millions of people use our services across the UK - including at 500 courts and tribunals, and 133 prisons in England and Wales.

**The Work of Private Office and Parliament Directorate**

The Ministry of Justice’s Private Office and Parliament Directorate is a supportive and collaborative group. It is also a busy and interesting place to work - it is the interface between Ministers, the rest of the Department and Whitehall.

The Department is at the forefront of the Government’s programme to tackle serious crime and support victims. You will play a key role in helping to deliver the reforms that the Secretary of State has set out, working in a fast-paced and exciting environment where strong team working is required. You will gain invaluable experience working at the heart of the decision-making process, working directly with the ministers, Special Advisers and senior officials across the Department and with external stakeholders, on a range of stimulating issues.

**Ministerial Assistant Private Secretary - the role**

On a day-to-day basis, you will lead on a portfolio, ensuring that correspondence and advice are boxed in a timely manner, and providing expert support to the minister on a range of issues across their portfolio. You will collaborate with policy, Parliamentary and other Private Office colleagues, making sure that the minister is looped in on emerging issues in the right way, at the right time. You will make sure that they are fully briefed ahead of meetings, providing accurate readouts so that actions can be appropriately followed up.

You will be one of the go-betweens for the minister and the rest of the department, and you will work closely with officials at all grades. You will need to have strong inter-personal skills, be highly organised and have the ability to make effective decisions at pace. This is a public-facing role, in which you will represent the department in front of external stakeholders and to other government departments.

This is an exciting time to join the POP directorate and we are keen for someone who is willing to learn in this busy atmosphere. We are a friendly, collegiate directorate. We have a range of corporate workstreams that make POP a fun and exciting place to work. We provide support to all private secretaries so that they can thrive and succeed in what can be demanding and fast-paced roles.

**Skills and Experience**

We are looking for someone who has experience of:
**Essential**:

- Providing high quality advice and effective decision making. You should know how to analyse and use information to support ministerial decision making, knowing how to involve others and invite challenge when appropriate.
- You will be an effective communicator, knowing how to communicate in a straightforward and engaging manner, sharing information with colleagues as appropriate and taking into account different opinions and views.
- Experience of building effective professional relationships with others to identify risks and resolve issues efficiently. Yo
