Job summary

The CMAs Competition Enforcement Directorate (CED) plays a key role in achieving this purpose by detecting and enforcing against anti-competitive conduct including hardcore cartels, anti-competitive agreements and abuses of dominant positions.

The successful candidate will have significant practical knowledge of competition enforcement law, processes and procedures, and the ability to apply that knowledge to improve how enforcement work is delivered.

They will also need to be able to think creatively and strategically about process improvement, communicate complex issues clearly, and work effectively with specialist colleagues, particularly in DTI.
