Northern Ireland Civil Service seeking to fill around 120 roles offering starting salary of more than £47,000
The Northern Ireland Civil Service (NICS) has launched its first recruitment campaign in four years for Deputy Principal roles, offering starting salaries of more than £47,000.
There are approximately 120 vacancies available at Deputy Principal level for roles across a range of departments and locations.
Deputy Principals play an important part in developing and delivering key areas of government policy and work closely with senior staff supporting them in the management of significant services and programmes.
With a starting salary of £47,304 per annum and an attractive annual leave and pension package, the NICS said these positions offer a great opportunity to build a rewarding career in public service.
The recruitment will be used to fill current vacancies across all NICS departments thereby reducing each department’s reliance on temporary promotions and agency staff. It will also be used to fill any additional vacancies that may arise over the duration of the competition.
The closing date for applications is noon on Friday 20 March 2026.
