Summary

Government Skills was created to accelerate the quality of learning and development in government through better training, knowledge and networks for around 550,000 Civil Servants across Government, delivering government priorities now and for the future.

As part of its development, it has been announced that Government Skills will become the National School of Government and Public Services. This change enhances its profile and visibility across government, offering better public services for citizens and confirming the government’s commitment to our vision of delivering world-class training in areas such as AI, digital, and leadership. This is an exciting time of growth, with new positions being created to support the future operating model.

Government Skills, Design and Delivery Team

The Design and Delivery Team, within Government Skills, exists to curate, design and deliver high quality learning opportunities that equip civil servants with the skills and knowledge they need to deliver excellent public services. The Design and Delivery Team operates flexibly, and learning designers are expected to lead and contribute to multiple projects, offering excellent developmental opportunities.

Digital, Data, Innovation and AI (DDI & AI) Team

Digital transformation, including AI, is both a defining challenge for our generation and a vital opportunity for the state. DDI & AI capabilities underpin much of the government’s wider transformation, and the DDI & AI team drives the strategic vision to embed these critical skills across government. We are a small, dynamic and fast-growing team with a remit to improve DDI&AI capability in non-digital specialists across all government departments. This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of the team that is delivering at pace on top government priorities.

As a Learning Design and Delivery Specialist, you will create, test, and deliver evidence-based digital learning interventions tailored for civil servants, playing a role in the full learning design cycle from analysis through to impact evaluation. Precise responsibilities may evolve over time.

Key responsibilities:

Creating, testing, and developing user-centred and evidence-based digital learning solutions for civil servants
Managing and developing a range of products focused on equipping civil servants with essential digital and AI skills
Delivering digital and AI products as necessary
Show a strong commitment to your own growth and learning by continuously developing your skills and staying up to date with the latest learning and development practices.
Coordinating and convening stakeholders such as Departments, Professions and Cross-government networks
Communicating learning opportunities across government, working with the Government Skills Group communications team
Applying programme management techniques
Designing and implementing approaches to measuring impact and evaluating the effectiveness of interventions.
