Job summary

We are MHCLG

Here at the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG), we work on things that make a real difference to people's lives. Whether it's through the homes we live in, the work of our local councils, or the communities we're all part of, our work is at the top of the political agenda. We have ambitious and far-reaching outcomes to achieve this year and, if you're thinking of joining us, there's never been a more exciting time.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Elections Directorate, responsible for a challenging and dynamic policy landscape, always in the public eye, covering electoral policy and law and digital services. The Elections Digital division is a team of enthusiastic and highly skilled digital specialists, geographically dispersed across the UK. Our multidisciplinary in-house digital team is the driving force behind the development and delivery of excellent elections services for users, as well as the day-to-day operational running of those services.

The division has a portfolio of 8 products and services, including the flagship Register to vote service. Over recent years, weve rapidly expanded our portfolio, and electors can now apply online postal votes, proxy votes and photo identification. Find out more in this blog post.

As well as continuing to develop our existing products and services to better meet user needs, the Digital Division has a big part to play in delivering Government Manifesto commitments and other Ministerial priorities. Lowering the voting age to 16 requires changes to all our elector-facing services, making them the first interaction that many young people will have with the GOV.UK estate. We are also seeking to improve registration by using data and links between government services to increase the number of people correctly registered to vote.

As a Senior Developer in the Elections Digital Division you will be part of our new in-house development capability. You will be joining a large multidisciplinary team with a wide range of stakeholders. We need people who want to be involved in all aspects of our multidisciplinary teams activity, from working with our user researcher to design, prototyping, and planning. You can find out more about how we work in the MHCLG Way

Find out more about our Digital teams through our MHCLG Digital blog. Please note that MHCLG do not offer visa sponsorship and applicants will need a valid visa for the duration of your employment.
