**Job summary**:
In DHSC, we are proud of our purpose - to enable everyone to live more independent, healthier lives for longer. To achieve this, and create a great place to work, we have four values: we are inclusive, we constantly improve, we challenge, and we are agile. If this sounds like an environment you’d like to work in, we’d love to hear from you.

We are advertising 2 exciting and challenging policy roles within the NHS Workforce Directorate, which is part of the Secondary Care and Integration Group. NHS workforce is a complex, high-profile policy area with considerable interest from ministers and senior officials, the public and the media. It is at the heart of ensuring the NHS can deliver the services the country needs.

The post-holders will have the opportunity to work on a range of policy issues, collaborating with colleagues across Government, the NHS, and the wider health and education sectors.

**Job description**:
There are two roles available.

Both roles are based in the NHS Workforce Supply branch. The branch is responsible for the domestic supply of healthcare professionals into the NHS and oversees an annual budget of c.£5.5bn. The branch plays a key role in delivery of the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan (LTWP), a historic and high-profile plan to put NHS staffing on a sustainable footing and improve patient care. Both roles have substantial discrete responsibilities, but with up to 25% of each role likely to be focused on wider work in the branch - to support capacity in a very busy work area, and to enrich the experience of the postholders.

We are advertising two roles in the clinical education and training policy team, focusing on training clinical staff (nurses, midwives, and Allied Health Professionals).

Both roles will drive the implementation of the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan. This includes delivering unprecedented increases in the number of healthcare professionals that we train, widening access to healthcare careers, for example by increasing the number of apprenticeship opportunities, as well as delivering ambitious reforms to how staff are trained. The post-holders will play a central part in ensuring that the NHS has a clinical workforce of the right size, practicing in the right parts of the country and with the right capability to meet the country’s needs.

The post-holders will work closely with a range of stakeholders including NHS England, the Department for Education, HMT, No.10, as well as professional regulators and partners like UCAS, to deliver and track the delivery of the LTWP commitments and policy initiatives relating to the education and training of clinical professions.

Your normal place of work will be your contractual primary workplace, usually either London or Leeds. Within DHSC we offer non-contractual hybrid working. The expectation at present is a minimum of 60% of your working time spent in the office, enabling in person interaction and collaboration and enhancing team working, learning, and support.

Opportunities for some working from home may be available; other flexible working options may be discussed with the hiring manager in line with individual circumstances and business need.

**Person specification**:
The specific responsibilities of each role will vary, however, they will both include:

- Conducting core policy development and delivery work, including drafting policy options and solutions to solve complex education and training challenges, often in collaboration with other internal and external stakeholders.
- Working with analysts to bring together a range of qualitative and quantitative data and stakeholder views to better understand the key policy challenges and suggest impactful solutions.
- Understanding the strategic and political drivers of our work and the wider policy and funding context and making sure key products and pieces of work reflect these.
- Making clear, concise and evidence-based recommendations to ministers, setting out options, costs, benefits and risks, with mínimal guidance and input from more senior officials.
- Building and maintaining relationships with internal and ex
