Modern, high-quality infrastructure is essential in enabling economic growth, a healthy environment and people’s quality of life and UK companies are amongst the best in the world in developing infrastructure.

The board and regional groups meet every 2 months.

The post holder will engage with DBT’s international network of colleagues based at Embassies and High Commissions around the world. They will help senior industry representatives to prioritise and secure high value infrastructure opportunities on behalf of ‘Team UK’ through the regional meetings. The postholder will work closely with other sector teams (mainly airports, built environment, water, rail and sports) and other partnership teams (Government-to Government, Third Country Cooperation, and Clean & Green Infrastructure development) within the Sustainability and infrastructure directorate.

There will be potential for international travel and close working with ministers, senior officials, and business executives.
