**Job summary**:
The DCMS International Hub is a new team, established following a recent Departmental restructure. The Hub will work with colleagues throughout DCMS and across government to represent DCMS’s global interests, and those of our sectors. In the first instance, it will be based in DCMS’s Arts, Heritage and Tourism directorate.

The team’s responsibilities will include: coordinating DCMS’s international and cross-government engagement; delivering programmes of international Ministerial Visits; driving forward DCMS’s interests in trade and export policy; developing DCMS’s approach to international boycotts, divestment and sanctions policy; and developing a new international strategy for DCMS.

This is an exciting opportunity to support the establishment of a brand new team, and contribute to developing an excellent working culture. The Hub will play a pivotal strategic role in DCMS’s development, and as such we anticipate that these roles will be challenging and rewarding, with a chance to work closely with senior officials and ministers to help shape the strategic direction of DCMS’s international goals.
