Junior content designers help to identify users’ needs and match them to the right type of content. You will use language and other techniques to help people get the information they need, in the way they need it. You make sure it’s easy to find, use and understand.

You will use research and data to make the right content decisions. You help to make sure users’ goals are met and that content or services meet policy intent. You make sure content is accessible and consistent with Defra and GOV.UK standards.

You will be working on projects that enhance biosecurity, improve animal welfare and make agriculture, fishing and food more sustainable.
