**Job summary**:
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is the UK’s international trade department Our Vision is to champion open and fair global trading that drives growth, creates better jobs and higher wages, and improves living standards in this country and around the world. The Department brings together policy and operational expertise to break down barriers to trade and investment in markets across the world.

The Tariff Operations team leads on several high-profile areas, including developing the UK’s domestic and multilateral tariff policy framework and implementation plans. The Tariff Operations team is vital to delivering the UK’s independent trade policy, working with policy and operational colleagues to ensure the UK’s trade policy is applied at the Border. The team also work closely with DBT’s Digital team to support the development of the Tariff Application Platform (TAP) which is the UK’s database for holding all tariff policy data.

You will need to be able to develop a strong working relationship with policy teams, as well as with the DBT and HMRC Digital teams, as you work with Digital colleagues to build and develop the TAP system to best meet policy colleagues’ needs. You should be able to articulate the Department’s position robustly and ensure DBT’s interests are credibly represented. A key part of the role will be to support the development of training, guidance and upskilling materials for the TAP system.

Comprehensive training would be given on how trade policy operates and how to use the digital systems for those with no previous experience of trade policy, though a background in an operational role would be advantageous.

**Job description**:

- Update the Tariff Application Platform (TAP) system directly with tariff and trade policy data in order to ensure operational delivery at the UK Border.
- Develop expertise in how to operationalise tariff and trade policy, and develop a deep understanding of goods classification, commodity code structures, and a range of trade measures
- An ability to work closely with colleagues in policy, operational and digital teams across Whitehall and use your operational knowledge of tariff/trade delivery to guide delivery and determine the best method of implementation in customs and tariff systems.
- Work closely with Digital colleagues to support development of training/upskilling materials related to the TAP system. This will include drafting guidance, running training sessions and supporting the onboarding of colleagues across Government onto the TAP system itself.

Please be aware that this role can only be worked from within the UK and not overseas.

Informal hybrid working arrangements will be available as agreed with the vacancy manager and in line with the requirements of the role.

Most DBT employees will be working a hybrid pattern, spending 2-3 days a week (pro rata) in an office, on average. If your office location is London, you will be eligible to receive London weighting.

**Person specification**:
**Essential Criteria**
- Comfortable with delivering at pace and working in an environment which often has challenging deadlines.
- Ability to manage multiple work streams and switch between them as priorities change and evolve.
- Experience working with data including using large datasets in Excel.

**Desirable Criteria**
- Evidence of building effective working relationships with internal stakeholders across Government.
- Experience working with tariff and/or trade data.
- Ability to work as part of a team and on own initiative.
- Attention to detail to produce high-quality and accurate work.
- An interest in international trade and the internal workings of government.
