Our Culture

We are friendly, open and supportive as a place to work. We encourage each other to be bold and innovative and are passionate about what we do. We want to nurture a diverse and inclusive environment where we value our people and the people we serve, whoever they are, wherever they are, and whatever they do.

Our values define how we work: Brilliant, Enterprising, Inclusive and Skilled. We are inspiring, high performing and have a clear sense of purpose in delivering excellent outcomes. We are creative, open to ideas and well connected to the people we serve. We capitalise on different perspectives, encourage you to bring their whole selves to work, become expert and commit to personal development.

We recognise the importance of a good work-life balance and offer a family friendly flexible working options as default such full time, part time or job-share. We are moving to a hybrid-working model with the option of blending your work time between the workplace and home on an informal basis. For most people, this will be 40% to 60% of time working from an office subject to business need.

BEIS is playing a leading role in levelling up every region in the UK. Our department's second largest location will be our Salford office and by 2025, 30% of our workforce will be based outside of London. We are particularly focused on growing our presence in Salford, Birmingham, Cardiff and Darlington with a variety of role types, grades and professions.
