We work to support every jobseeker, for example: younger or older workers, those with a health condition or disability, those from a disadvantaged background, those looking at self-employment, or those with caring or childcare responsibilities.**Job description**:
The **Labour Market Strategy Division** sits within the Strategy Directorate, at the heart of Policy Group in DWP. The Directorate works to provide a clearer focus for policy development on labour market issues, setting the agenda on cross-cutting issues and linking ministerial and departmental priorities together to ensure greater coherence and consistency.

The Labour Market Strategy Division is made up of:
The **Cross-cutting Labour Market Strategy team**, which works on a variety of high-profile labour market areas, including but not limited to our overall labour market strategy, including how this is delivered through employers and in jobcentres, tackling economic inactivity, supporting work on departmental Spending Reviews and supporting decision-making across labour market policy through governance and secretariat of senior departmental and cross-Government decision making forums.

The **Places Strategy team**, which is responsible for leading DWP’s strategy to level up place-based inequalities (e.g. disparities in employment, skills, health). Getting people both into work and progressing in work is key to levelling up for the whole of the UK, and DWP is playing a central role in this. As part of this, we work to bring a stronger place-based “lens” to the development of new policies across the department in order to drive better policy outcomes by addressing local labour market needs. We also liaise with stakeholders inside and outside the Department to deliver our English Devolution commitments.

The **Sectors Strategy team**, which is responsible for leading work to remove barriers to employment and progression in a series of priority sectors. We work across DWP, with sector owning departments and No.10, and with industry to identify the challenges faced by our customers in accessing or progressing in work in these sectors, and work to remove these barriers. We also lead on the Green Jobs agenda for DWP.

The teams are friendly and sociable, with a strong focus on personal and team development. We promote individuals’ development through on-the-job learning and internal and external courses and encourage each other to get involved in new and stretching bits of work as they come up. We are also an inclusive teams that care about encouraging a contribution from all and making the team the best place to work.

Various roles are available within the Cross-cutting Labour Market Strategy, Sectors Strategy, and Places Strategy teams.

**Person specification**:
Due to the variety of roles on offer, we have roles that would benefit experienced SEOs looking for stretch and evidence towards a move to the next grade as well as others looking to build a good foundation in the SEO role.

Each role is likely to include leadership on discrete, high profile policy areas, which may include:

- Building and owning relationships with policy teams, analysts, and operations across DWP, with key partners in other departments, and with local government and industry partners, and leveraging these to support our policy aims.
