**Job summary**:
The Government People Group exists to work with departments, professions, and functions to build a modern, effective Civil Service.

We support the government workforce with the right skills and capability. We are working with leaders to get the right people in the right jobs, with the right skills and continuous learning to excel in their roles.

We provide leadership, and in turn, create leaders with exceptional line management capability across departments, influencing partners in the wider public sector and beyond. This involves getting our retention and reward strategy right, to nurture specific skills, and create pride and resilience in our workforce.

Our role is also to provide system leadership across central government in pulling together back office services. Collectively, we help support the Cabinet Office’s priority to drive efficiencies, and reforms that will make government work better, to ultimately provide a better service to the public.

Within GPG, the Platforms, Data and Interoperability (PD&I) directorate provides first-class platforms and services for over 450,000 civil servants, including recruitment, data analysis, skills and learning solutions. It provides recruitment services for around 70 percent of the Civil Service.

As an Interaction Designer you’ll work in multidisciplinary teams, alongside researchers and developers, to deliver world-class, user centred services. You’ll work on ambitious projects transforming the services we provide for civil servants. We have digital services covering the whole employee journey, from recruitment to retirement.

**Job description**:
PD&I is a centre of expertise, working across departments to make it easier for civil servants to use platforms for HR, finance and payroll. We recently launched the Shared Services Strategy for Government, which will deliver services that are better value, cutting through processes that cost time and money. Our overarching objectives are:

- Improve the user experience for civil servants with systems that are intuitive, easy to use and mobile-enabled
- Deliver efficiency and value for money through better systems and services which support productivity and seek to reduce costs
- Drive convergence around processes and data, including the consolidation and modernisation of technology platforms, while maintaining choice for departments

Through this strategy, our ambition is to free up civil servants to focus on what they do best: engaging with and delivering for citizens.

**Person specification**:
You will join one of our delivery teams for the Interoperability OneData programme, which aims to create a more flexible, efficient and effective Civil Service in which we use technology and data to manage the workforce intelligently. The programme has four key projects, each designed to make it easier to be a civil servant in a modern Civil Service:

- ** Government Skills Campus** - giving civil servants the tools they need to identify, develop and use their skills and learning effectively
- ** Civil Service Employee Transfers** - improving how civil servants move between government departments without resigning from the Civil Service
- ** Central Employee Identifier** - providing a single unique identifier for every civil servant, connecting data held in different systems
- ** Integration Capability** - the underlying technology that enables data to be shared in a seamless and error-free way

You’ll also work with our wider portfolio of digital services covering recruitment, learning and business services.

**Who are we looking for?**:
As an Interaction Designer you will:

- use research and analytics to understand users needs, identify service failures and test different designs
- use evidence to challenge assumptions, negotiate with product owners and rationalise your design decisions
- design collaboratively and in the open, engaging your whole team with the design process and adapting it if necessary
- create prototypes and mockups to explain complex ideas and support the development process
- set the design direction and good practice within your teams
- champion accessibility and inclusion, consider the impact of new technologies and make sure that designs meet accessibility, legal and secur
