The mission and team are supportive of ensuring a good work-life balance, including protecting family time and caring responsibilities wherever possible. There is also times during the year when long working hours are required (notably the WHO government meetings including the world health assembly).
When weekend or evening working is required, some “time off in lieu” is offered during quieter periods.

Learning & Development:
The mission and team strongly support continuous professional development for all employees. There are significant opportunities to learn “on the job” in areas relevant to the role and to the wider team’s – and mission’s – work, including potential for work-shadowing other colleagues and leading on cross-mission corporate initiatives.
The UK government provides a broad range of dedicated learning and development opportunities, including workshops and courses in areas directly relevant to this role. Some funding for tailored learning and development opportunities is also available.
