Head of International Culture Policy – DCMS

The Head of International Culture Policy role at the Department for Culture, Media and Sport leads a team responsible for protecting and furthering the international reach of our arts and cultural sectors – encompassing performing and visual arts.

We are looking for an effective team leader, with excellent people, management, communication, policy and strategic skills. You’ll need an eye for detail, and also be very comfortable seeing the bigger picture across a range of policy areas to enable prioritisation and continual progress to long term goals.

We require an individual who can work collegiately with wider DCMS teams, to identify/progress shared areas of interest in the most efficient way possible.

As a team leader, you will set the direction in managing a small, high-performing team, delivering short and longer term priorities. A keen interest in developing yourself and your team will be key.

Key to this will be developing excellent relationships with a diverse range of organisations and high profile individuals, other Government departments, and wider DCMS sector teams, and working closely with them to ensure you fully understand their issues, perspectives and ways of working, and can feed these into policy development.
