Job summary:
We are looking for a
Content Designer to join the Government People Group (GPG) within the Cabinet Office, to help develop our Civil Service Jobs platform and wider recruitment service.
You will help us to transform how the Civil Service recruits so that we hire the right people, into the right roles, at the right time.
Your role:
As a Content Designer, you will be an experienced practitioner who is capable of understanding our user needs, and creating user-centred content and designs that will make our user experience simpler and more intuitive.
Our team:
We are a digital team made of Service, Product and Delivery Managers, Business Analysts, a Service Designer, a Content Designer, an Interaction Designer and a User Researcher, who will all support you in your work.
We are also part of a wider digital community, and have a great UCD community with fellow designers and researchers to network with.
Our project is looking at Recruitment Transformation, to procure and build a new recruitment platform by 2026, which will enhance the recruitment service provision across government.
Civil Service Jobs enables the whole of government to recruit people more efficiently, without which the government could not deliver its work: hence our service brings far-reaching benefits for all citizens.
We also enjoy enabling people to find meaningful jobs, and teams to find great colleagues - contributing to a diverse culture that reflects the diversity in the UK.
Job description:
What you'll work on:
You will join our cross-functional agile delivery team focusing on transforming Civil Service Jobs, and helping to redesign how the service should be delivered in the future.
Along with the live service, we are running a
Recruitment Transformation programme, looking at what the future service should look like.
We've completed our Discovery and Alpha phases, where we did extensive user research and prototype design, to explore our user needs and potential solutions for the biggest areas of improvement.
We've decided that our service needs to procure rather than building our own, so we've now moved into the Beta procurement phase, which will result in appointing a new technology platform provider by summer 2024, followed by a build and migration phase to be completed by the end of 2026.

Person specification:
We follow the Government Digital and Data job description model for Content Designer.
We'd expect the role to have a good understanding of the Government Digital Service Manual, the GDS Design System, and our Technology Code of Practice.
We're looking for people who are passionate about creating accessible services that are simple enough for everyone to use.As a Content Designer you will:
- Lead the development of the content strategy and information architecture for Civil Service Jobs
- Create, usercentred and concise content that can be understood by any member of the public
