The Department generally recruits permanent staff but there are times when we need to employ temporary staff via agencies or engage specific expertise from specialist organisations. Many of our teams are responsible for their own personnel needs so there may be specialist short-term opportunities within specific policy areas that we are not aware of. If you are interested in working with the Department to supply temporary or specialist resources, please contact the following:
For temporary agency staff enquiries: recruitment and interchange unit
For specialist opportunities (such as consultancy services): professional services and commodities category unit
For work in a particular area (such as academies, research etc): telephone the public communications unit
For all other recruitment enquiries: personnel helpline
Our commercial and procurement services team undertakes its recruitment exercises with support from human resources. We do not employ specialist procurement recruitment agencies.
