**Job summary**:
DLUHC’s Rapid Response Team (RRT) is deployed across the Department onto the highest priority projects.

We inject specialist support and response focus into planned peaks of activity or unexpected crisis situations as well as supporting DLUHC in delivering against its key priorities.
Individuals in the RRT are deployed for 3-4 months at a time. Deployments are varied and range from working with local government and partners to ensure successful delivery of government programmes, through to the shaping and delivery of policy across areas such as homelessness, building safety, planning regulations or housing programmes as well as the wider Levelling Up missions.

Since its formation over two years ago, the RRT have provided surge resource to deliver successful outcomes across the highest priority response work including working with Local Government to procure housing for refugees from Afghanistan and Ukraine, as well as the Covid-19 response.

We are looking for a dynamic, resilient leader who can work at pace, delivering impact and contributing to the success of the RRT. As a Grade 7 (G7) in the RRT you will be deployed to priority projects across the department as well as holding responsibilities for team cohesion and collaboration within the RRT, and potentially line management.

The team is based in Birmingham and Wolverhampton. We work in accordance with DLUHC’s smarter working model (a mix of 40% office working each week on average and home working). The teams we support are based across UK locations so there may be a need for you to travel to work directly with them at times.

This is an exciting and varied role that will provide you with the ability to influence and deliver key priorities for central and local government.

We welcome people from any sector or background to play a key role in developing and delivering our part of the government's policy agenda.

**Job description**:
As part of the Rapid Response Team (RRT), you will be deployed as Policy or Strategy lead to work with other teams on projects across DLUHC for 3-4 months at a time.

On deployment you will be expected to provide high quality advice and recommendations - through written and oral communications. You will motivate and support other team members in their work, identifying barriers and working strategically to ensure the successful delivery of a policy area. You will use your management and communications style to ensure key outcomes are achieved and that you bring stakeholders along with you in your work.

This is a great opportunity for those who thrive in complex and fast paced environments, enjoy problem solving, and managing and delivering rapid change.

**Person specification**:

- Strong, responsive and adaptable leaders that are comfortable working with changing priorities, situations and deadlines at pace.
- Strategic thinkers with the ability to see the big picture, think laterally, and find ways to meaningfully push an agenda forward.
- Leaders from all walks of life, who will build a diverse and inclusive team - empowering colleagues to deliver and perform at pace and under pressure. We want to hear from people who are diverse in thought, ethnicity and background.
- Individuals with a broad range of skills to contribute and be part of a high performing team.
- Solutions-focused people with a focus on problem solving and delivery - with excellent analytical and stakeholder management skills with experience in developing and delivering policy.
- The ability to establish and build relationships quickly across diverse teams and varied situations, leading and supporting teams to deliver the department’s priorities.
- Someone who thrives in a project-based environment, leading delivery of effective outcomes, often at a fast pace.
- An excellent communicator and influencer - bringing clarity of thought to complex issues, with the ability to shift stubborn views. The role will include responsibility for drafting responses to official requests (including preparing, checking, and advising on correspondence, Parliamentary questions, Freedom of Information requests and responses to Ministerial Correspondence and briefing for Ministers). We are looking for individuals with extensive experience in delivering excellent written communications to ensure policy positions are understood and supported by a wide range of stakeholders.
- A resilient and motivated individual, who can work away from a ‘typical’ team and embed themselves effectively within their deployment teams, deal with
