Senior Policy Adviser – Intermediaries

3 months ago


Durham, United Kingdom HM TREASURY-1 Full time

Are you looking for a new opportunity? Would you like the opportunity to lead on a key set of policy issues relating to the taxation of employment intermediaries?  

About the Team

The Personal Tax team covers a very broad range of exciting policies that are important across the population. The size and influence of these policies means that they are always of interest to ministers, and the post holder will have the chance to work closely with seniors, SpAds and ministers.

The team is responsible for income tax, National Insurance (NICs), inheritance tax and other aspects of the personal tax system, including longer-term strategy and linking up with other areas of tax and welfare. Total personal tax receipts exceed £400bn so our policies are fundamental in fiscal and economic importance to the Treasury - and of significant interest to the Chancellor and other Ministers. For example, over the past few years this has included reducing the main rate of NICs, changes to the taxation of non-UK domiciled individuals, freezing NICs and income tax thresholds, and more.

About the Job

The UK labour market has seen firms and individuals adopt a wider range of ways of working. One such shift over the last decade has been the growth in the use of labour market intermediaries. Taxation of employment intermediaries is therefore a dynamic and high priority policy area and has attracted significant ministerial interest.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead on policy development and delivery on the taxation of employment intermediaries.
  • Provide clear and credible advice to Ministers and senior officials a throughout the year and at fiscal events, specifically on: Off-payroll working; Umbrella companies , including advising ministers on policy options as follow up to a previous consultation; and Policies related to tax avoidance.
  • Ensure that written advice, briefing and correspondence by your branch is completed to a high standard.
  • Build and maintain quality relationships with key partners across Government - primarily HMRC policy partners and relevant labour market policy leads in Department for Business and Trade – as well as with other teams in HMT.
  • Line-manage an HEO, setting clear roles and objectives for your branch, as well focusing as well-being and development.

About You

You will be able to develop policy and make evidenced based decisions in a complex, fast-paced, and technically demanding area. You will have excellent stakeholder management skills, with a proven ability to build strong internal and external relationships within a sensitive environment and use those relationships to influence policy direction. You are able to communicate with clarity, conviction, and influence on complicated and sensitive issues, including being able to tailor communication style to different audiences.

Some of the Benefits our people love

  • 25 days annual leave (rising to 30 after 5 years), plus 8 public holidays and the King’s birthday (unless you have a legacy arrangement as an existing Civil Servant). Additionally, we operate flexitime systems, allowing employees to take up to an additional 2 days off each month
  • Flexible working patterns (part-time, job-share, condensed hours)
  • Generous parental and adoption leave packages
  • Access to a generous Defined Benefit pension scheme with employer contributions of 27%
  • Access to a cycle-to-work salary sacrifice scheme and season ticket advances
  • A range of active staff networks, based around interests (e.g. analysts, music society, sports and social club) and diversity
