**Primary Location** UK-ENG-London

**Job** Policy

**Organisation** 641000 - PRUDENTIAL POLICY ED AND DIRECTORS

**Job Posting** 11-May-2023, 3:39:57 AM

The Bank of England is the UK's central bank. Our mission is to deliver monetary and financial stability for the British people.

The Bank of England is a diverse organisation. Each of its 4,000 plus people are committed to public service and dedicated to promoting the good of the people of the United Kingdom by maintaining monetary and financial stability.

Prudential Policy Directorate are responsible for designing, negotiating internationally and implementing effective prudential regulation in order to remove or reduce systemic risks, promote the safety and soundness of PRA-regulated firms and ensure appropriate protection for insurance policyholders. PPD supports both the Prudential Regulation Committee and Financial Policy Committee in fulfilling their objectives.

**Department Overview**

Ever wondered what it's really like to work in private office? We think it's stimulating, exiting, and probably a much more flexible and encouraging environment than you may have imagined.

At this time, reshaping UK financial services following the UK’s withdrawal from the EU whilst promoting the safety and soundness of PRA regulated institutions creates an outstanding and exciting backdrop to this role.

**Job description**

This office, alongside those of other Governors/COO and EDs, is vital for effective decision-making. Together as a team, the private secretaries: commission, filter, and synthesise the information the Governors/COO and EDs receive; prepare and advise the Governors/COO and EDs for their meetings; ensure work is in train to follow up on any actions; and provide colleagues with the vital background information for it to be effective.

The role played by the Governors’ and Executive Directors’ offices means staff have exposure to a wider range of people and issues at a higher level than anywhere else in the Bank. In this role, you will engage with HM government, other central banks and regulators, industry bodies, and financial sector boards and C-suite executives.

Working with the rest of the organisation, you will also advise ED PPD on policy decisions and support clear communication by preparing them for speaking events and meetings.

This is a people management role. You will be responsible for day to day management of the team and for defining roles and responsibilities. You will develop your team through sharing information effectively, coaching and communicating a clear vision to ensure that your staff are productive, engaged and motivated to deliver the area's aims. This will include setting clear goals and smart stretching objectives that are aligned to those of the team, division and directorate. You will also be responsible for managing all staff-related matters that may arise including performance, absence and sickness.

**Number of direct reports: 3**

**Role Requirements**

**Minimum Criteria**
- Knowledge and experience of regulatory or prudential policy.

**Essential Criteria**
- Ability to take an inclusive approach to management, bringing out the best in and developing the talents of each individual given a variety of different backgrounds.
- Track record of leading and supporting Diversity and Inclusion initiatives and encouraging others to do the same.
- A track record of delivering through others
- Organisational and teamwork abilities to be part of an effective team that handles competing priorities and works in a dynamic, fluid and high pressure environment.
- Self-starting, strategic problem solver, able to work without close oversight.
- Excellent diplomatic and interpersonal skills.
- Enthusiastic, resilient and highly motivated.
- Excellent oral and written communication skills. The jobholder will need to be able to distil complex issues and communicate them quickly and effectively

**Desirable Criteria**
- A track record of managing and developing staff.

**Our Approach to Inclusion**

The Bank values diversity, equity and inclusion. We play a key role in maintaining monetary and financial stability, and to do that effectively, we believe we need a workforce that reflects the society we serve.

At the Bank of England we want all colleagues to feel valued and respected, so we're working hard to build an inclusive culture which supports people from all backgrounds and communities to be at their best at work. We celebrate all forms of diversity, including (but not limited to) age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation and socioeconomic status. We believe that it’s by drawing on different perspectives and experiences that we’ll continue to make the best decisions for the public.

For most roles where work can be carried out at home, we aim for colleagues to spend half of their time in
