Get Involved
Change is happening at every level and every civil servant has a role to play. All civil servants can take action to encourage and progress reform in their role, team and department.
Join a profession
Civil servants can access training, workshops, and events by joining a government profession. Professions offer civil servants the chance to share skills and experiences within a professional network.
Tell us your views!
The Civil Service is driving change through the 5 missions. If you or your team has worked on or delivered a project that fits one or more of the missions, we want to hear from you. We share blogs, stories and newsletters regularly that showcase the best of what civil servants do from every department and grade. You can submit ideas to us here.
Stories from A Modern Civil Service
Fiona from HMRC
As part of the Levelling Up and Beyond Whitehall agendas, I thought it was really important that we showed what is on offer outside of London. I set up a cross-Government stakeholder group and ensured that I had representation from a diverse group of Policy professionals. I also found that bringing in external stakeholders from institutes such as universities gave it a fresh injection of views and insight.
