**Job summary**:
**HM Treasury**

If you’re interested in making a difference to people’s lives, the Treasury can offer you an exciting opportunity to influence decision making that affects the whole of the UK. Working at the heart of government, we collaborate across government to promote responsible public spending and drive strong and sustainable economic growth.

Our work ranges from protecting customers through the regulation of the financial sector, helping to reduce carbon emissions and creating a greener economy, to promoting British trade around the world and supporting people across the country on jobs, growth and more.

We are part of the Darlington Economic Campus, a pioneering new cross-government hub which brings people together to play an active role in the most important issues of the day whilst working closer to the communities we serve. The campus provides the opportunity for people from all over the UK to help shape the future of the country, and our flexible working practices ensure you can collaborate effectively with our partners. It’s central government, made more accessible to you

**Job description**:
**Fiscal Group**

Fiscal Group works on a wide-ranging set of issues at the heart of the Treasury’s objectives and of fiscal events such as Budgets. We are responsible for ensuring the sustainability of the government’s finances, overseeing its macroeconomic policy framework, and stable and efficient financing of government liabilities. Work includes advising the Chancellor on the appropriate levels of borrowing and debt (as well as broader commitments like guarantees & insurance), providing analysis of the government’s finances, overseeing financing raised for the government by the Debt Management Office and National Savings & Investments. We work with teams across the Treasury to support decisions on the full range of policy. We also have a particularly wide and deep range of relationships beyond the Treasury including the Office for Budget Responsibility, Bank of England, and the Office for National Statistics.

Delivering these objectives requires a range of skills and backgrounds, and we are proud of our diversity.

**About the Team**

The **Debt and Reserves Management (DRM) team** manages key financial assets and liabilities on the public sector balance sheet - using analysis, oversight and our stakeholder links to Bank of England, the Debt Management Office, National Savings & Investments (NS&I) and the Royal Mint.

Within DRM, the Retail Debt and Cash Issuance branch are a friendly, supportive and dynamic team leading on a wide ranging, and high profile set of policy issues, with significant engagement from Ministers and Special Advisers. The branch is responsible for developing strategy and legislation related to banknote and coins; working closely with the Bank of England and the Royal Mint; and sponsorship and spending for NS&I.

**About the Role**

Great policy making is about understanding what needs to change, what problems need to be solved and supporting Ministers to arrive at the best solution to deliver the change. Policy also means working out how we are going to make the changes or solve the problems, and then delivering on those plans. To do all this, we need to build relationships with Ministers, Civil Service colleagues, groups with expertise and the public. To work on policy as a Policy Adviser, you will need to demonstrate a range of skills, including strong problem-solving skills, the ability to clearly explain your thinking both in writing and in person, and the drive to overcome challenges and see your ideas through into action and delivery.

Our team works flexibly in response to ministerial priorities.

**Key accountabilities for this role include**:

- Lead on circulating coin matters working with the Royal Mint, including shape and understand policy developments in related, wider areas - including access to cash, and supporting work on new projects, managing HM Treasury’s relationships and correspondence.
- Support on wholesale cash policy, including implementing aspects of the Financial Services and Markets Act.
- Clearly and accurately describing a problem or area for change, and possible solutions.
- Building and maintaining positive relationships with a range of partners, including colleagues across the Civil Service and public sector and with organisations from the private sector.
- Act
