**Job summary**:
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the UK and other major world economies have imposed an unprecedented range of sanctions to reduce the Russian regime’s ability to continue the invasion, impose costs on the Russian economy and induce Russia to change course. DBT has led moves to ban trade in a range of services.

Team - The sanctions team sits within the Trade and Investment Negotiations - Services Directorate, and is responsible for leading a cross-HMG effort to develop and implement services trade sanctions targeting trade with Russia.
