The posting

[What the role is]

The successful candidate will join a small, dedicated team responsible for shaping policies and regulatory frameworks for food businesses, including the development and implementation of the Food Safety and Security Act. The officer will work on a diverse range of policy issues, assessing food safety risks, reviewing existing regulatory approaches, studying international practices and developing practical, risk-based policy solutions. Working closely with colleagues across Divisions in the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) and other relevant ministries and agencies, the officer will be involved throughout the policy-to-legislation journey, from analysis and policy formulation to stakeholder engagement, implementation and the drafting of legal and regulatory requirements.

[What you will be working on]

· Formulate and review policies and regulatory frameworks for food businesses (e.g. farms, retail and non-retail food businesses), using a science-based risk management approach. This includes reviewing existing legislation and guidelines for continued relevance and effectiveness, benchmarking against international standards and overseas regulatory frameworks, understanding industry practices, drafting policy submissions and preparing drafting instructions for legislative provisions.

· Engage relevant Divisions within SFA to ensure that policy positions are practical and take into account implementation considerations, particularly in areas relating to authorisations, inspections, testing, compliance and enforcement.

· Develop and implement stakeholder engagement strategies for proposed policies and legislative changes, including organising public consultations and industry engagement activities. Translate policy proposals into clear and effective consultation and communication materials to support stakeholder understanding and engagement.

· Work closely with the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) on the legal text of the subsidiary legislation, ensuring that the legislative provisions accurately reflect policy intent and are clear, coherent and internally consistent throughout the drafting process.

· Develop guidance and implementation materials for food businesses to facilitate the adoption of new or revised regulations and support compliance with food safety requirements.

[What we are looking for]

  • Experience in policy development and drafting, with the ability to analyse complex issues, navigate competing considerations, and translate insights into clear, evidence-based policy positions and well-structured policy documents.
  • Strong strategic and analytical thinking skills, with the ability to understand the broader regulatory landscape and assess how individual policy decisions align with the wider legislative framework and policy objectives.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage, influence and collaborate effectively with a diverse range of internal and external stakeholders.
  • Experience in food safety policy or regulation would be an advantage. Candidates with strong policy experience in related regulatory fields are also encouraged to apply.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
