A large number of civil service organisations employ scientists and engineers. These pages contain a brief overview of some of the main organisations. If further details about a particular organisation are required these should be available from the relevant website.
The information provided could help individuals take the first step in identifying opportunities for interchange and long‑term career development. This information also provides an overview of the size and nature of the civil service science and engineering community.
These organisations are based on the knowledge and experience of the HoSEP Team. It is thought that the main organisations have been identified, but the list is not exhaustive. A possible alternative source for information on civil service organisations is the Civil Service Recruitment Gateway, which provides information on all civil service organisations.
Please note that this list intentionally excludes organisations whose main focus is statistics or information technology, since these are separate professions within the Professional Skills for Government (PSG) structure.
Suggestions for additions, or alterations, to the following list would be most welcome. These should be forwarded to the HoSEP team.
