Job Description (Roles and Responsibilities)

**Main purpose of job**:
You will provide support to the Head of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) within the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) at the British Embassy in Bogota in their efforts to promote Colombian investment into the United Kingdom, focusing on areas aligned with UK Government priorities such as Net Zero and Science Superpower.

Working under the Colombia FDI Head, you will engage with Colombian startups, industry associations, venture capital funds, High-net-worth individuals and established companies to promote awareness of the UK as a destination for FDI. The purpose of this engagement will be to strengthen the FDI pipeline and land investment wins, creating jobs, prosperity, and driving growth in both the UK and Colombia.

The role will require excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work collaboratively with a wide range of diverse stakeholders. You will be part of a wider regional team promoting investment from across Latin America and the Caribbean. This will require you to develop good working relations with colleagues across the continent to deliver cross-regional investment promotion activities. You will also work closely with DBT colleagues (policy, program, and commercial) in the Embassy to deliver investment objectives as part of cross-Embassy and regional strategies. Additionally, you will develop excellent relationships with DBT colleagues in the UK and with UK-based partner organizations to deliver an impactful program of activities focused on developing a robust pipeline of Colombian investors, achieving investment targets, and promoting the UK as a destination for Colombian companies.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on improving bilateral trade and investment relations between the United Kingdom and Colombia through increased investment and enhancing knowledge-sharing networks and ecosystems in fast-growing sectors such as tech and renewables. You will have the opportunity to gain experience in organizing investment promotion activities within Colombia, and potentially the wider region and the UK. Additionally, you will gain high-level experience dealing with senior business stakeholders and large companies while developing your knowledge of the investment world and specific sectors.

The position will suit an energetic team player, motivated self-starter with a passion and genuine interest in the world of international business and trade. It will require a positive and proactive attitude that thinks in terms of unlocking opportunities for Colombian companies in the UK.

The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) is responsible for promoting UK trade and investment with the rest of the world, and we support UK businesses overseas and attract foreign investment to our shores. We have 3,000 staff across the globe in over 100 countries. DBT divides the world into 9 regions, each led by His Majesty’s Trade Commissioner. The Latin American and the Caribbean Region (LATAC) is led from São Paulo by Jonathan Knott. The Network is represented in 19 Posts with a team of over 160 staff.

Working within the British Embassy in Bogota, as well as collaborating closely with DBT Latin America and Caribbean (LATAC) and UK colleagues, the successful applicant will drive deeper investment relations between the UK and Colombia, and contributing to economic growth.
