**Job summary**:

- The newly created Department for Business and Trade brings together the business focused functions of the former Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and the Department for International Trade (DIT). Our joint expertise in trade and business provides us with a unique opportunity to unleash the power of UK businesses, reform regulation to reduce burdens and unlock post-Brexit freedoms.**Job description**:
As a Content Designer, you will be joining the Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) team at the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) that develops digital services and tools enabling the UK government to provide world-leading support to businesses in the UK and overseas.

We’re looking for Content Designers who want to make a lasting impact on how DBT delivers our user-centred products and services.

You will work in an agile, multi-disciplinary team and collaborate on projects across our major platforms including GOV.UK, great.gov.uk and our intranet. You will design content that helps our users achieve their goals, ensuring content is accessible, easy to understand and adheres to government standards.

Our User-Centred Design Community is a supportive hub that will help you develop your skills in content design and agile working. We host regular sessions to share best practice so you can learn from others and get regular feedback on your work. You can read more about our User-Centred Design Community on GOV.UK.

**About the Department for Business and Trade**

We are the department for economic growth, supporting business to invest, grow and export, creating jobs and opportunities across the country.

Our vision is to champion open and fair trading that drives growth, creates better jobs and higher wages, and improves living standards in this country and round the world.

The role will be based in either London, Cardiff or Darlington and may require occasional travel to other DBT offices. Please be aware that this role can only be worked from within the UK and not overseas.

Informal hybrid working arrangements will be available as agreed with the vacancy manager and in line with the requirements of the role. Most DBT employees will be working a hybrid pattern, spending 2 to 3 days a week (pro rata) in the office on average.

Changes to these working arrangements are available in certain circumstances but must be agreed with the vacancy manager and in line with the requirements of the role. Travel to your primary office location will not be paid for by DBT, but costs for travel to an office which is not your main location will be covered.
