Department for Business and Trade (DBT)
Main purpose of job:
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is the UK government department responsible for promoting and financing international trade and development, and championing free trade. In Peru, DBT operates within the British Embassy in Lima, with a team that works primarily through several sector-specific export promotion campaigns.
This is a brilliant opportunity to work on one of the most important export campaigns for the British government in Peru, supporting business (exports and investment) between the UK and Peru in the Infrastructure sector, and working to overcome market barriers in the Peruvian market that prevent British companies doing business in this specific sector. You will support the ongoing management of Government-to-Government (G2G) agreements directly with the Peruvian government in delivering over £5.2bn of social infrastructure, sharing best practice and knowledge transfer. This is an ideal position for someone with the ability to work collaboratively with an international team. The job will require the successful candidate to take responsibility for delivering both quickly and to a high standard.
You will assist in the development and management of a pipeline of commercial opportunities in Peru for UK companies with a particular focus on, but not limited to, Construction, Healthcare, Water and Sanitation, Transport and Mobility, Railways and Airports and Renewable Energy (including hydrogen). You will also be responsible for the team’s administrative tasks and for regularly updating our client-management database.
Roles and responsibilities:
Job distribution: Infrastructure 80% and Office Support 20%.
This is an exciting opportunity to work on improving bilateral trade and investment between the United Kingdom and Peru, especially through supporting the increase in UK exports. The Infrastructure & Energy teams work to support high value UK companies with significant trade potential and implementation of current G2Gs.

Candidates must be eligible to live and work in Peru in their own right.
The successful candidate will be subject to a security clearance and professional reference checks.

Appointable candidates who were unsuccessful may be placed on a ‘reserve list’. If during the reserve period of 6-12 months the same or a largely similar role becomes available, that role may be offered to the second or subsequent candidate.
The UK government promotes and encourages professional development. You will have access to UK government courses and on-the-job learning and development opportunities (seminars, workshops, job shadowing, training programmes etc.), as well as the option of bidding for external courses through a competitive process.
