**Job summary**:
The purpose of the International Trade Profession (ITP) is to attract talent, build capability, and retain expertise in trade for Government, including the devolved administrations and overseas. The ITP Team is responsible for designing, developing, and embedding the Profession’s offer. We work collaboratively to ensure the Profession meets the needs of all 3500 of its members.

The Profession’s work is underpinned by three pillars: Great Careers, Great Curriculum, and Great Network. These each include a variety of workstreams including Career Pathways, Professional Standards, Job Shadowing, Network & Community and Learning and Development. Communications and diversity & inclusion are embedded in all our work. The Profession is governed at a strategic level by a cross-Government strategic board and operational oversight is retained by the Senior Responsible Officer (SRO) Board. This will involve supporting senior leaders including Crawford Falconer, the UK’s Chief Trade Negotiation Adviser and Government’s Head of International Trade Profession.

As a Higher Executive Officer (HEO) workstream lead for the Profession you will lead delivery of a number of different areas of the Profession. Workstreams could include:

- Careers: Creating a comprehensive career development offer for trade professionals, including further development of the ITP Career Pathways Guide to showcase options available to trade professionals.
- Communications and Engagement: Supporting the Profession to both attract new members and engage existing members with our offer through communications and engagement activity.
- Learning and Development (L&D): Leading on regular updates to the Profession’s L&D prospectus, maintaining relationships with the joint FCDO Trade Faculty - ITP Trade Capability group, and maintaining effective working relationships with the Profession’s L&D providers.
- Governance and project management: supporting the delivery of key governance events including the quarterly Heads of Profession board and SRO Board. Monitoring project streams progress against workplans.

This is an exciting and innovative role in a friendly and supportive team. You will be empowered and supported to develop new products and initiatives to further improve the Profession and make a real difference in the career development of colleagues across Government.
