Why this role matters

The Deputy Director for Workforce Strategy and Change is a pivotal senior leadership role within Home Office HR, accountable for shaping the departments future workforce and ensuring it has the capacity, capability and organisational agility required to deliver ministerial priorities and respond to an increasingly complex operating environment.

You will lead some of the department's most significant and high-profile workforce challenges, including strategic workforce planning, organisational redesign and workforce restructuring, influencing decisions with substantial operational, financial and reputational implications.

As a highly visible senior leader, you will operate confidently in an environment subject to significant Permanent Secretary and Executive Committee scrutiny.
