Now’s time to consider a career in the Civil Service
Forget bowler hats and briefcases, the Civil Service has moved on from the days of Jim Hacker and Sir Humphrey Appleby in TV sitcom Yes Minister. The modern Civil Service is a vibrant and varied working environment, offering opportunities for employees from all walks of life. We talk to staff working in different departments about the diverse jobs they undertake.
THERE HAS never been a better time to consider a career within the Civil Service with an enormous
range of openings available across the UK.
The benefits of a career in the Civil Service include opportunities to make a difference, flexibility, annual and parental leave, pension and moving up the career ladder.
There are a diverse range of departments you could work in – from trade negotiations and policy development to climate change and digital data and technology.
