Form of work
SalaryThe central Government People Group (GPG) provides support and guidance to departments, professions and other functions to build a modern and effective Civil Service. GPG supports the government workforce with the right skills and capability, working with leaders to get the right people in the right jobs, with the right skills and continuous learning to excel in their roles.
We provide leadership across central government, pulling together back office services and supporting the Cabinet Office’s priority to drive efficiencies, and reforms that will make government work better, to ultimately provide a better service to the public.
This role sits within Corporate Services Business Management under the Functional Strategy, Performance and Capability (FSPC) directorate, supporting GPG to be a high performing and delivery focused business unit and centre of the function.
About the role
We are looking for an experienced data-handler to join our Business Management Team which is responsible for providing the essential support functions and plays a critical role in ensuring the successful running of the business unit.
GPG is a recently formed unit, following a merger of two existing teams, so in addition to learning new skills, developing new products and processes there will be opportunity for you to shape the role and positively influence the immediate and wider team culture. As GPG continues to form, you will need to be comfortable working in a changing environment and across boundaries, responsive to the evolving needs of the business.
You will have a passion for data and an understanding of using data to improve business outcomes. You will be able to bring data to life using visuals that aid comprehension and facilitate rich conversations with a variety of colleagues/stakeholders.
You will have a key role in establishing a new suite of data-based reports for GPG’s senior team (and the business unit at large) with the opportunity to innovate and set direction. You will need to approach issues and challenges with a creative, can-do attitude to find the best solutions for the business.
