**Job description**:
**About the Group**

The **Public Spending Group** is a high-profile and rewarding place to work. We help the Chancellor decide what to spend £1.2 trillion a year on and ensure government delivers value for money for the taxpayer. We are responsible for reporting to Parliament and the public on how taxpayers’ money is spent. We drive forward improved outcomes and efficiency in public services and make sure value for money is at the centre of decision-making through better evaluation, data and analysis.

The Group advise on overall government policy on public sector pay and pensions, the biggest single driver of public spending. We collaborate with and directly support departments to deliver the Government Finance Function strategy, building finance, debt and risk capability across government and developing the management information, tools and frameworks to better understand and ensure value for money.

**About the Team**

The Cross-Cutting Strategy, Insight and Reform (CSIR) team works on some of the most challenging policy issues facing government today.

CSIR exists to improve value for money by working across government to lead change through cross-cutting reform, productivity and efficiency and enabling the centre of government to achieve these aims via excellent spending control.

**About the Job**

You will lead on identifying and delivering key reform opportunities across the public sector to drive improved productivity and efficiency, in particular by working with departments to enhance the government’s understanding of demand management across public services and systems challenges. As part of this workstream, you will be responsible for coordinating and collating work across stakeholders to identify opportunities for early interventions and preventative spending in order to support better outcomes and alleviate long-term spending pressures. These opportunities will be cross-cutting, involving different parts of government and the public sector: the objective is to lead HMT efforts to enable change through fiscal events and ongoing engagement.

**Key accountabilities for this role include**:

- Lead the team’s work to **identify and support preventative spending interventions **at the next Spending Review, working collaboratively across HM Treasury and government more widely.
- Work with departments to enhance HM Treasury’s **understanding of demand management** **and system challenges** across public services, identifying opportunities for streamlining delivery and improving outcomes.
