The FSA is a non-ministerial department of over 1600 people. We play a critical role in protecting public health and consumers’ wider interests in food across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Our vision is an important one - to drive change, delivering “food you can trust” and working towards a healthier and more sustainable food system.
The relationship that the FSA has with its partners in local authorities is key to our work protecting consumer health.
The Local Authority Partnerships Team are a vital connecting point between the FSA and local authorities in Wales, providing guidance on food and animal feed law, codes of practice, and other centrally issued guidance. This can inform FSA policy development, ensuring that new processes are informed by experience of delivery.
The Local Authorities Partnership Manager role offers an exciting opportunity for candidates to work closely with a range of stakeholders, helping to ensure that food and feed produced in Wales is safe and exactly what it says it is.
Through close working relationships with local authority officers across all levels, the post holder will offer day-to-day support to achieve consistent delivery across Wales. From the coordination of the Feed Delivery Programme to supporting local authorities in addressing the findings of FSA audits, your work will be key to our success.
The post holder will work to ensure that FSA policy development takes into account interests specific to Wales, as well as the specific experiences of our local authority colleagues delivering official controls.
