We support the policy development across HMT by leading on poverty, cost-of-living, general living standards-related analysis as well as equalities and disparities analysis.  
We work jointly with the Distributional Analysis branch, which is made up of around seven analysts, who advise Ministers on how tax and spending decisions impact on households. We also work closely with Macroeconomic Coordination & Strategy in Economics Group on the Cost of Living, and with the Equalities Policy Branch in Public Spending Group on equalities analysis.

This will help ensure our evidence and analysis is up-to-date and relevant to policy development.  
A working knowledge of R or a similar software is essential for this role. You will be able to analyse data and communicate analysis with impact. Proactively lead the analytical planning and vision of your branch and championing team’s analysis across the department to maximise impact.

Communicate complex analysis powerfully to senior, non-technical customers who are interested in our work and build effective partnerships and relationships with a range of customers within the department and beyond to achieve tangible outcomes.
