CST is the government’s highest‑level advisory body on science, technology, engineering and mathematics, providing independent advice directly to the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The new co‑chair will jointly lead the council with Government Chief Scientific Adviser Dame Angela McLean. Candidates should be highly credible senior leaders from academia or industry with the stature to shape the council’s strategic direction and represent its advice at the highest levels. Applicants must be able to convene diverse perspectives and deliver evidence‑based advice that impacts the UK science and technology landscape. Applications are accepted only via the public appointments website and close at midday on 29 June 2026.
