**Job summary**:
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) oversees the domestic business environment, breaks down international barriers to trade and investment, and helps boost economic growth by ensuring the UK is a country where businesses can thrive.

Climate change is driving the biggest and fastest global industrial transformation ever seen - a change that will impact the business environment and international trade for decades. We need to help ensure UK businesses are well-placed to take advantage of the commercial opportunities from the global green transition and that DBT’s wider work is aligned with the Government’s climate policy ambitions.

At the centre of the department sits the Global Futures Group - an internal thinktank and strategy team focused on driving positive change on long-term issues affecting the UK and global economy. For this group, we are recruiting a Green Strategy Advisor to join the Green Strategy Team, to support our work aligning the Department’s business and trade policy with the Government’s climate goals.

You will play a multi-functional role in the Green Strategy Team, including:

- **Leading DBT’s internal green governance arrangements**- coordinating work across all business and trade Director General areas and acting as Secretariat for the Director-level Green Strategy Board.
- **Liaising across Whitehall**- helping the Department to deliver its aims through a co-ordinated, collaborative approach across a complex landscape of stakeholders, particularly with colleagues in the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero - to ensure policy alignment.
- **Supporting the development and implementation of the Department’s strategic objectives around climate change**:

- developing long-term policy thinking, as well as day to day work with policy teams to monitor and report delivery against the Department’s objectives, identifying opportunities and risks for discussion at the Green Strategy Board.
- **Developing strategic communication on climate issues across Whitehall and externally**:

- drafting and advising on briefings for Ministers and senior officials, preparing, checking and advising on correspondence, PQs, Freedom of Information requests, and responses to other ad-hoc requests to help deliver Ministerial communications and ensure DBT has a strong external narrative.

You will be exposed to a range of different topics and demands which makes for an exciting job but can at times be fast-paced and demanding.

**Job description**:

- ** Collaborating and influencing within DBT and across Whitehall**:

- You will help the Department to deliver its aims through a co-ordinated, collaborative approach across a complex landscape of internal and external stakeholders. You will develop close working relationships with DBT’s cadre of strategy, policy and analytical teams to join up activity across the Department on climate change. This will include leading on DBT’s internal green governance structures and providing secretariat duties for the Director-level Green Strategy Board. You also will develop and maintain the team’s network of contacts across Whitehall and with experts outside government to shape the Department’s thinking and identify issues and opportunities to deliver our objectives.
- **Strategy development and implementation **- You will support work to develop and implement the Department’s green strategic objectives. This will include developing long-term policy thinking, as well as day to day work with policy teams to monitor and report delivery against the Department’s objectives.
- **Clear communication**- You will be an articulate communicator, both on the page and in person, and be able to tailor your work and adapt your messaging to be relevant to a range of audiences.

Please be aware that this role can only be worked from within the UK and not overseas.

If your office location is London, you will be eligible to receive London weighting.

**Person specification**:
**Essential Criteria**

Interest in climate and economic policy making.- Stakeholder engagement - ability to build strong professional relationships with a range of different stakeholders, especially across Whitehall.Strong written and verbal communication skills.Flexibility and the ability to deliver at pace in a fast-moving environment.
