**Job summary**:
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.
- and late-career changers with transferrable skills, people from all backgrounds and circumstances regardless of disability, gender, age ethnicity, LGBT+ identity and socio-economic status.

We are part of the Darlington Economic Campus, a pioneering new cross-government policy making 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**:
**Enterprise and Growth Unit**

The Enterprise and Growth Unit (EGU) promotes sustainable economic growth and higher productivity for the UK. We provide analysis and advice on enterprise, innovation, private sector investment and a cost-effective transition to a low-carbon economy. The Enterprise and Growth Unit has a varied and exciting agenda and we work closely with a wide variety of other teams across the Treasury.

We also work alongside other departments and government organisations to ensure that we are thinking creatively, spending wisely, and acting boldly to deliver these goals. These organisations are:

- the Department for Business and Trade,
- the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero,
- the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs,
- the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology,
- the Department for Transport,
- the Department for Culture, Media & Sport,
- the Competition and Markets Authority,
- HM Land Registry, and
- UK Export Finance

**About the team**

The **Growth, Productivity and Infrastructure Team** is a friendly team of around 20 policy advisers and economists which sits at the heart of the Treasury’s economics ministry function.
- We take a strategic overview of growth policy, coordinating across HMT, especially at Budget and Spring Statement.
- We act as a source of new insights, including through proactive engagement with business and academia.
- We lead for HMT on key growth-focused policy areas including the government’s infrastructure strategy, how to facilitate infrastructure delivery, employment policy and migration policy.
- Lastly, we have a deep and up-to-date understanding of the evidence base on productivity, which we use to advise on policy, and produce analytical projects on the UK’s growth constraints.

The team as a whole, have a friendly, supportive and collaborative culture, with a strong commitment to wellbeing and professional development.

**About the roles**

We are hiring for two HEO posts in the Infrastructure Strategy branch of GPI, both leading on high-profile and influential aspects of the Treasury’s work on infrastructure.

**Policy Advisor - UK Infrastructure Bank**

This role will support and lead elements of HMT’s ownership and sponsorship of the UK Infrastructure Bank (UKIB). One of the major growth interventions of the government, the UKIB was launched in June 2021, with £22bn of financial capacity, and is an arms-length body of HMT. It partners with the private sector and local government to increase infrastructure investment to help deliver net zero and promote economic growth across the regions and nations of the United Kingdom. It is focussed on supporting new technology, creating new markets and generating private investment into riskier projects which have the potential to jump start progress towards the Government’s core objectives.

This is an exciting time to join the team as UKIB becomes more established and is developing and growing into its role, and playing a central role in helping to deliver the government’s net zero and levelling up ambitions. Th
