The Trade and Investment Negotiations - Goods (TING) directorate plays a pivotal role in coordinating trade interests and leading the UK government's policies for manufactured goods. We deliver and implement trade policy and agreements which reflect the needs of UK businesses, so that exporters can be successful and competitive internationally, whether with Europe or the rest of the world.

- You will lead cross-cutting people policies including recruitment, retention, induction and reward. This is likely to include working with SMT on the annual ‘People Survey’, directorate days and staff events, and ensuring the directorate’s corporate workstreams have maximum impact.
- You will have line management responsibilities for two SEOs and leadership responsibilities for a further two HEOs. You will also have oversight of the work of three Executive Assistants who support SMT and policy teams. You will develop the skills and capability within the team to ensure a high-quality service to SMT and the wider directorate.
- You will develop strong relationships with other teams in DBT, including HR, Finance and our DG’s office, to make sure the directorate has strong links and influence in key corporate teams in DBT.
