**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 and Health Protection Directorate, within the Global Health 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 areas, covering everything from infectious disease planning and response including Ebola and pandemic flu, to health security, anti-microbial resistance, vaccination and immunisation policy, and counter terrorism preparations and response.

**Job description**:
The successful applicants will provide administrative and policy support to Deputy Director-led teams within the Emergency Preparedness and Health Protection Directorate.

**The roles available include posts in the following teams**:

- Risk, Governance and Capabilities
- Pandemic Preparedness Strategy and Portfolio

In delivering these functions, the postholders will contribute to the smooth functioning of the Directorate and facilitate delivery of the public health outcomes for which the Directorate is responsible. The business of the Directorate is often fast-paced and high-profile, particularly when responding to incidents, and can attract significant Ministerial, parliamentary and media interest.

The roles provide an excellent opportunity to gain good knowledge of the policy work undertaken in the Directorate and across the Department and its arms’-length bodies. The roles may also require deputising for others in the team as necessary to cover periods of absence and leave.

The Emergency Preparedness and Health Protection Directorate is an equal opportunity team and we value diversity. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion/faith, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, or disability status. We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable adjustments to participate in the interview process, and to succeed in the role.

**Person specification**:
**The exact tasks will be agreed with the postholder but are likely to include**:

- Developing a knowledge of the relevant policy areas to be able to better support deputy director-led teams to deliver this work
- Providing programme and project management support, including reviewing and updating action plans and risk registers
- Working alongside team members to complete corporate monthly performance reporting, including progress against manifesto commitments, team objectives and risks
- Commissioning briefings to ensure team members are prepared for meetings
- Collating information from across the directorate, department and from ALBs to assist the team in responding to commissions, including ministerial briefings
- Providing secretariat for certain key meetings and making the necessary arrangements for those meetings, such as booking rooms where required and drafting meeting agendas and minutes
- Supporting the team’s business management and administrative processes, for example record keeping
- Monitor the Team Mailbox and respond to or triage queries
- Supporting the team on any parliamentary business, for example written parliamentary questions, and on freedom of information requests and public correspondence

**Please note that the minimum working requirement for this post for part time applicants is 0.5FTE.**

**Key Skills and Experience**

**The key skills for these roles are**:

- Excellent written English skills including grammar, punctuation, and spelling
- Ability to build and maintain strong relationships with colleagues internally and across organisational boundaries, including building trust and credibility with seniors
- Excellent project and programme management skills
- Strong delivery and organisational skill
