**Job summary**:
In Department of Health and Social Care (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.

The Emergency Preparedness and Health Protection Directorate, within the Global Health and Health Protection Group, plays a vital role in preparing for and responding to all types of national incidents, such as disease outbreaks or terrorist attacks. This busy Directorate leads a great range of policy, covering everything from infectious disease planning and response including Ebola and pandemic flu, to health security, antimicrobial resistance, vaccination and immunisation policy, and counter terrorism preparations and response_._

The UK Health Security Team and Pandemic Preparedness Strategy and Portfolio Teams work closely together to ensure that we have effective UK-wide health protection capabilities that can prevent, prepare for, and respond to all types of communicable diseases and threats to health, including pandemics and antimicrobial resistance.

The UK Health Security Team (UKHS) branch of EPHP works closely with colleagues across the health system (including in the NHS, the UK Health Security Agency, and the Devolved Governments) on policy and delivery, informed by close collaboration with expert advisory committees to ensure our policymaking is supported by independent expert advice. Our work covers a wide range of infectious disease threats, including putting the right measures in place to respond with medical and non-medical interventions to outbreaks and pandemics of known diseases; ensuring we have the capacity to respond rapidly to a novel pandemic threat; strengthening our existing legislation on health protection, including managing diseases at the border; and tackling the growing burden of antimicrobial resistance.

The Pandemic Preparedness Strategy and Portfolio (PPSP) branch of EPHP leads on the development of a new capabilities-focused strategic approach to pandemic preparedness that incorporates learning from previous pandemics. The team also lead on the development and delivery oversight of the Pandemic Preparedness Portfolio (PPP), working closely with the UKHSA Centre of Pandemic Preparedness and Programmes across DHSC, UKHSA and NHS England.
