UKGI is committed to bringing together and developing the best talent from both the Civil Service and the private sector
UKGI provides staff with the opportunity to work on a variety of projects across its broad portfolio, and gives access to a range of learning and development opportunities. Typically, our staff work on two to three projects at any one time, depending on the size and complexity of the projects. Whatever their background and experience, everyone will be given the opportunity to improve their skills and develop their career during their time at UKGI.
UKGI is continually on the lookout for talented candidates from both public and private sector backgrounds because, in a fast-moving environment where new projects are regularly identified and new priorities set, posts sometimes need to be filled at short notice.
