**Job description**:
Would you like to deliver critical policies for addressing climate change? This is an exciting time to join the Hydrogen and Industrial Carbon Capture directorate, which was formed to ensure successful delivery of the government’s Net Zero programme and decarbonise the economy. It is a fast-paced and exciting directorate that is at the heart of energy and climate change policy.

We are looking for two HEOs within the Hydrogen and Industrial Carbon Capture directorate to help us deliver policy across two of our business models.

**Role 1: Industrial Carbon Capture Business Model**

In the Net Zero Strategy we set out our ambition to capture and store at least 6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year from industrial sources by 2030. To help deliver these ambitions, our team is working to ensure the commercial frameworks and support mechanisms are in place to enable the deployment of Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (CCUS) projects across the UK affiliated with a £20bn funding envelope.

The Industrial Carbon Capture (ICC) business model is a new incentive mechanism to provide funding support towards decarbonising vital industries such as chemicals, refining, cement and waste management. We are looking to ensure we establish the correct incentives for deployment whilst delivering value for money for the taxpayer.

You will have the opportunity to work on high-profile, complex and challenging policy development, alongside engaging with our key internal and external partners, as well as the chance to make lasting change

The role could include:

- Collaborating with analysts, commercial advisers and technical experts to establish key policy decisions relating to the support vital to deploy CCUS. This will involve drawing on a range of evidence and viewpoints to establish coherent policy positions which can be presented clearly to senior management and to industry.
- Developing strong relationships with other policy teams within DESNZ and across government to develop positions to ensure coherent policy across the wider policy landscape.
- Supporting/ leading on elements of the business model design and delivery, such as understanding the technologies being deployed (including emerging technologies) and sectors of implementation, and the impact this has for the commercial design of the model and contractual terms.
- Drafting papers and presenting to senior internal and external stakeholders, including ministers, HM Treasury, and industry, and supporting with correspondence and stakeholder engagement.

As work on the business model progresses, opportunities to work on other elements of policy delivery may be available.
- If you have a background and interest in policy development and implementation, we would love to hear from you.
