**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.

The Emergency Preparedness and Health Protection Directorate (EPHP), within the Global and Public Health Group, plays a vital role in preparing for and responding to all types of national incidents or emergencies affecting the public's health, 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, and counter terrorism preparations and response.

**Job description**:
We are recruiting for two SEO roles in the newly formed ORC Risk, Governance and Capabilities, and UKHSA Sponsorship branch within EPHP.

The Risk, Governance and Capabilities team is responsible for ensuring the Department has a comprehensive overview of all the possible threats to the public’s health and risks to the effective functioning of health and social care sector. The team works alongside colleagues in the Department and within our arm's length bodies, to conduct regular reviews of the wide range of risks faced by the UK, in the short-term and the longer-term, and evaluate the extent of their possible health impacts. These risks include health specific risks, such as the threat of infectious diseases, and indirect health risks, such as natural power outage or natural and environmental hazards. Our aim is to ensure the healthcare system is as prepared and resilient as possible to all forms of threats to health.

The roles offer significant policy and strategy leadership, with excellent exposure to Ministers and opportunities to work with a wide range of stakeholders, including at very senior levels, across government, regulators and externally. The roles may also include elements of sponsorship of UKHSA, an Arm's Length Body of the Department. The roles are varied allowing the individual to develop a wide range of skills across policy development, project management, legislative delivery, and stakeholder engagement. Our teams work flexibly across the Directorate to ensure that individuals have stretching objectives and wide-ranging portfolios.

**Person specification**:

- Role responsibilities_

For the Climate and Environmental Hazards Programme Manager role, you will:

- Lead on complex policy work relating to environmental hazards such as Ionising radiation for medical exposures. This will require proactive engagement with a wide range of stakeholders such as Devolved administrations, medical regulators and UKHSA to develop mitigations to policy issues which may include undertaking consultations or amending legislation
- Work to support health system adherence to the Environmental Principles Policy Statement Duty to ensure consistency of consideration across DHSC and continued engagement with other government departments to share learnings. This will include leading teach-ins on the duty and advising staff on their consideration of the duty. Coordinate the departmental response to cross-cutting queries on the Environmental Principles Policy Statement Duty.
- Oversight and evaluation of the health system's National Adaptation programme commitments, including risks to health and social care delivery from Climate change. This will require building and maintaining strong working relationships across the health system's adaptation teams to identify emerging issues and collaborating with partners to support progress of commitments.
- Influencing cross-government activity on long term adaptation policy, by working closely across the health system, Whitehall, and Devolved Administrations to develop policy to strengthen resilience of healthcare delivery.
