Job description:

We are a new realtime data (RTD) team in the Net Zero Domestic Directorate. This is one of the most exciting policy and delivery areas in the department and one of the biggest contributors across Government to delivering on net zero by 2050. The group will invest around £4 billion over the next 3 years in energy efficiency and decarbonising heat measures across the UK's 30 million homes, businesses, and public sector buildings.
We are looking for people with the drive, skills, and passion to unlock the value in our data. This role will be at the forefront of the move towards using real time data across the Directorate and Department.
This role is largely operational facing and involves building close relationships with operations colleagues to drive analysis that will inform decisions made by ministers, senior leaders or frontline operations. This role could involve a wide range of work from quick analysis to answer a single data question, to building larger models underpinning decisions on spending or legislation, enabling decision makers to make better informed judgements. There will be a strong emphasis and expectation on continual professional development. If you have excellent problemsolving skills and ability to act on own initiative, with curiosity and desire to help unlock the value of and demystify the assumed complexities of data to improve the lives of our customer, reflect the communities we serve, and develop and deliver inclusive policy we would like to hear from you.
