The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is a central government department with a mission to protect our country and provide the ultimate guarantee of its security and independence, as well as helping to protect its values and interests abroad.
To do this we have an annual budget of almost £40 billion and a workforce comprising 193,000 people, almost 59,000 of whom are civilians. We currently manage more than £11 billion of spend every year.
Our work really matters; we offer engaging roles which have a direct impact on the quality of services we provide. We employ people in many different roles and in many locations across the UK and abroad. We have jobs in policy, finance, HR, IS/IT, commercial and project management and all the types of jobs you would expect to find in a government department, or indeed in the private sector. We also employ doctors, dentists, teachers, police, fire service, quantity surveyors, and engineers to name a few. There are many opportunities to develop and progress both within MOD and across the wider Civil Service, whether you’re a permanent appointee or an interim.

- Work closely with the Government Legal Department to provide policy input to live legal cases and manage risks arising from Judicial Reviews that the MOD is exposed to.

- Identify pertinent information from case working and eligibility files to clearly articulate how and why decisions were made regarding an applicant’s case and across wider cohorts.
- Ensure good information management practices, to help prepare for legal cases.
- Liaise with cross-government representatives on ARAP and resettlement legal issues, including FCDO and Home Office.
- Ensure coherence of outputs with Policy, Casework and Secretariat teams.
- Keep track of key deadlines as part of a busy portfolio and prioritising within this, to ensure MOD equities are protected.
- Act on behalf of C1 legal policy when required.
