We have worked hard to make our Policy Branch a great place to work. We are busy so we need more hands but there's a great vibe across the branch.

We're looking for excellent written and oral communication skills, with the ability to develop clear, compelling narratives for Ministers, stakeholders and the wider public. An understanding of the drivers, impacts and measurement of child poverty is highly desirable.
