**About Policy Lab**

Policy Lab is a multidisciplinary team that brings together expertise including in policy, lived experience research, systems thinking, futures, art and design. Working in the Lab offers unique exposure to a range of important and interesting policy issues. Since 2014, the team has run more than 200 policy innovation projects with a wide range of teams across government and beyond. Policy Lab creates compelling and innovative project outputs, including visualisations, films, digital experiences, workshops and exhibition design. The focus of recent projects has included system change to produce better outcomes for people facing multiple disadvantage, achieving net zero in last mile logistics, and developing new plans for managing fishing stocks.

Policy Lab operates on a 100% cost-recovery basis. This is an innovative commercial model inside government and means that the Lab earns all of its income through paid project commissions.

Please note that the advertised role sits within the Department for Education, but in a team that acts as a cross-government service. This means you may only occasionally work on Department for Education policy areas.

**Job description**:
The UK's Policy Lab is an exciting and inclusive organisation that sits within the Department for Education, working across the whole of government and beyond. Our mission is to radically improve policymaking through design, innovation and people-centred approaches.

We are looking for a dynamic Senior Producer to play a key role in the delivery of Policy Lab’s varied portfolio of innovation projects and initiatives within government. You will be instrumental to our portfolio delivery, playing both a key role in larger multidisciplinary project teams and leading your own projects and areas of work, enabling Policy Lab to deliver world-class policy innovation. Policy Lab is a high energy and inspiring workplace, and you will need to be adaptable in carrying out a range of activities. You may come to the team with an area of specialism such as social research, ethnography, design, or technology or you might have a generalist background suitable for a range of project leadership and delivery tasks. This role can be London-based or located in the Department for Education’s Leeds, Manchester or Bristol offices.

The Senior Producer is a varied and fast-paced role. You will bring your excellent project skills, as well as your creativity, to a range of tasks within Policy Lab’s highly innovative projects. You will both lead and contribute to project teams, offering your specialist experience to the design and delivery of projects, or leading and working with others if you have a generalist background. You will contribute to business development and build strong relationships with policy teams, commissioners and other innovators. Where relevant to your interests and skills, you will contribute to advancing Policy Lab’s innovation practice. You will also play a part in the wider operations and smooth running of Policy Lab, alongside all team members. Our project teams are typically 4-5 people and projects can run from 2-8 months; you may work on more than one project at a time and within any given year you can expect to work on several different policy areas and other team initiatives.

To ensure that our ground-breaking practices can be integrated into civil service policy and delivery environments, Policy Lab includes people with a mix of specialist skills and experienced policymakers from departments. You may come to the Lab with a specialism or creative practice of your own, you may also be a generalist interested in contributing to policy innovation projects more broadly. We are open to applicants in both situations.

**Responsibilities**

Roles in Policy Lab are highly varied, you can expect to undertake most of the following ac
