Our Departments
The Civil Service is divided into departments, which deal with areas such as education, health and defence. Most departments have their own agencies dealing with specialist subjects.
Whatever your passion – from the environment to international development, there’s a department or agency to match.
After experiencing long-lasting depression, I am now a Mental Health Champion, supporting colleagues and Fast Streamers across Government and spear-heading new resilience and well-being initiatives. I love my job and the opportunity to make a real difference every day.
