**Policy and Communications Officer**

**HEO**

**Prison Policy Directorate**

The Prison Policy Directorate is recruiting permanently for a HEO Policy and Communications Officer. This campaign is being run externally and so is open to all who consider themselves suitable for the roles and meet the eligibility criteria in the wider advert within Civil Service Jobs.

**Location**

1. 102 Petty France, London
2. 5 Wellington Place, Leeds

Occasional travel between the two locations may be required.

In order for the Policy Group to meet its evolving business needs, all Policy Group staff are expected to attend their base location (102 Petty France or 5 Wellington Place Leeds) at least 2 days a week. This hybrid working arrangement is not contractual and as a result staff could be asked to attend their base location more frequently.

**Ways of Working**

At the Ministry of Justice we believe and promote alternative ways of working, these roles are available as:

- Full-time, part-time or the option to job share
- Flexible working patterns
- Flexible working arrangements between base locations, MoJ Hubs and home

**Salary**
- New entrants to the Civil Service will be expected to join on the minimum of the pay range.
- If you are already a civil servant and are successful in an external recruitment competition for a role with us, your starting pay will be the better of:
- promotion terms or transfer terms, as appropriate; or
- pay on appointment arrangements (minimum of pay range).

**Job description overview**

This is an exciting and unusual opportunity to work across government to prevent deaths - both self-inflicted and natural - in all forms of state custody, from prisons to secure health settings, police custody and immigration detention.
The Ministerial Council on Deaths in Custody brings together Ministers, senior officials, experts, and practitioners to allow for better learning and sharing of lessons across custodial agencies. Its shared purpose is to bring about a continuing and sustained reduction in the number and rate of deaths in all forms of state custody in England and Wales.

The three tiers of the Ministerial Council are the Ministerial Board on Deaths in Custody (MBDC), the Independent Advisory Panel on Deaths in Custody (IAPDC), and the Practitioner and Stakeholder Group, which provides expertise and input into the Ministerial Council’s work.

**The Ministry of Justice (MoJ)**

MoJ is the largest government department, employing over 90,000 people with a budget of approximately £10 billion. Each year, millions of people use our services across the UK - including at 500 courts and tribunals, and 133 prisons in England and Wales.

**What we do**

The MBDC meets twice a year, with relevant groups meeting between, and is co-chaired by the Minister of State for Prisons, Parole, and Probation, the Minister of State for Crime, Policing, and Fire, and the Minister for Mental Health and Women’s Health Strategy. It includes senior leaders from operational and policy functions, scrutiny bodies, the Chief Coroner, and charities. It sets priorities for departments and agencies to make policy and operational changes to prevent deaths and holds them to account through a shared workplan.

The team is jointly funded and co-sponsored by MoJ, the Home Office, and DHSC. The team is hosted by MoJ and sits in the Scrutiny, Performance, and Engagement division with the Prison Policy directorate.

**The role**

The postholder will have the following key roles:

- Projects: Lead on and support the wider team to deliver projects for both the MBDC and IAPDC by bringing together partners and experts to progress impactful work to prevent deaths. An example of a recent IAPDC project includes the production of a report on enhancing the impact of coroners’ Prevention of Future Death (PFD) reports and working with a wide range of stakeholders to implement its recommendations.
- Data: Oversee the data and custodial updates presented to Ministers and other MBDC members. This will include working with partners to continue to refine the deaths in custody dashboard, which brings together data on all places of detention. Review, summarise, and distribute PFD reports relating to deaths in custody to relevant departments, agencies, and organisations.
- Communications: Support delivery of the commun
