**Job summary**:
In 2025, Packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (pEPR) will come fully into force and more than 7,000 businesses will be obliged to compensate local authorities across the UK for the costs they incur managing packaging at the end of its (first) life. This is a flagship policy for Defra, DAERA in Northern Ireland, the Scottish Government, and the Welsh Government, who are working together to operationalise the policy. A new body, the Scheme Administrator (SA) will be responsible for invoicing producers and making payments to local authorities. To fulfil this function, it will need to operate a ‘Fees and Payments Calculator (FPC)’ which Defra is currently building on its behalf.

The FPC team is responsible for designing, building and quality assuring key functionality of the calculator and for liaising with the digital team, which is responsible for other functional elements. Three quarters of the team are modellers and data analysts. This role sits within the other quarter of the team - the delivery readiness team - which is responsible for delivering, directly and through other teams, non-analytical projects to ensure the FPC is delivered on time, within cost, time and to the required quality standards.

**Job description**:
Delivery Officers support Senior Delivery Officers and work alongside analytical and project management colleagues. They work across organisational boundaries to deliver non-analytical projects and ensure delivery is visible to and aligned with requirements of communications, engagement, digital, policy, programme and project management offices, regulation, commercial, legal and finance.

There are two posts which will initially be located within the Fees and Payments Calculator Modelling and Readiness Team. We intend to transition one or both into the pEPR Scheme Administrator, which will be a public body consisting of civil servants, as it becomes established over the next 12-18 months.

Key responsibilities are to:

- Support Senior Delivery Officers deliver non-analytical tasks within analyst-led projects, working closely with analytical colleagues to ensure scope and approach meets needs. This will include:
Supporting data collection, by working with contractors to monitor progress, and unlock issues as appropriate, ensuring analysts and other experts, within and outside Defra, are engaged and deployed within the project as appropriate

Supporting the day-to-day management of research projects, for instance coordinating clearance and external communication, also ensuring FPC specialists are involved at the right points in time - it may also involve managing smaller scale projects;
Working with seniors to co-ordinate stakeholder engagement to support the needs of the analytical team, for instance to communicate and receive feedback on analytical approaches

Working with others to ensure join-up of FPC with other key SA functions, for instance the finance function

2. Deliver secretariat functions e.g. agenda-setting and/or note taking for several advisory and expert groups that analysts consult for input.

3. Work closely with the FPC project manager (assigned to FPC from central PMO) in support of one or more Senior Delivery Officers, to:
Ensure that project plans, risks and dependencies are accurately reported and logged, and by identifying and implementing actions to address any issues.

Report readiness for the projects and tasks within the Module.

Ensure work packages (“Modules”) and the projects within them are understood by programme management. This will involve supporting the development of workstream-level and task-level delivery plans, supporting the delivery of those plans and ensuring they are feeding up into the FPC-wide plan, e.g. by recognising and signalling the impact of task-level delays so the FPC Project Manager can identify and action formal changes at FPC plan level.

**Person specification**:
The work is intellectually challenging. To be successful, you will thrive in fast paced environments, working under pressure and to tight timelines, comfortable with demonstrating flexibility and adaptability. You will have worked in a complex delivery context, e.g. with many overlapping and interconnected parts.

Ideally, you
