**Job summary**:
Are you enthusiastic, resilient, a good team player and motivated to make a difference and develop in a public sector setting? If so, come join our programme; it's ground-breaking, fast-paced and a great opportunity to develop yourself and widen your experience. The Safer and Greener Buildings Group has been established to bring together the Department’s work responding to the Grenfell Tower fire and supporting the UK to achieve Net Zero Carbon Emissions by 2050, leaving a legacy of safer buildings that are greener and better adapted to climate change.

The Recovery Strategy Unit (RSU) is a new unit at the heart of Safer Green Building’s ambition. It is tasked with pursuing individuals and companies who are failing to make buildings safe and pay to fix the building safety issues they caused. This is a high profile area of work, which has rightly received considerable Parliamentary and press attention. A quick google search will reveal the types of cases the Unit has taken forward.

What really sets us apart is the kind of work we undertake, our culture and the diverse nature and backgrounds of our employees. We realise that our ultimate success depends on recruiting and retaining high quality people, and stimulating their creativity and professionalism.
