Policy Advisor

Darlington, Darlington, United Kingdom HM Treasury Full time
About the Role

The State-Owned Banking Assets unit is responsible for policy relating to financial sector assets taken on as a result of the financial crisis, including the Treasury's shareholding in NatWest Group and ongoing interest in UK Asset Resolution, a government-owned company handling the government's exposures to the legacy liabilities of Northern Rock and Bradford & Bingley.

The unit works closely with UK Government Investments (UKGI) as it develops and advises Ministers on policy to exit these multi-billion pound interventions in the financial sector.

About the Job

The primary focus of the role will be to support policy for the government's shareholding in NatWest.

The government recapitalised the bank, acquiring an 84% shareholding, as part of a number of interventions made as a result of the global financial crisis to restore economic and financial stability to the UK economy.

With that objective long achieved, the policy objective is to fully return the bank to the private ownership through sales of the government's shareholding.

Significant progress has been made against this objective in recent years, with the shareholding now reduced to below 18%. The government intends to fully exit this shareholding by 2025/26, subject to market conditions and achieving value for money.

You will be supporting delivery of this objective, with sales of the shareholding raising billions of pounds in revenue to support the delivery of wider public services.

In addition to the work on the NatWest shareholding, you may also support the work of the team in delivering a managed wind down of the UK Asset Resolution (UKAR) intervention.

This involves assessing the best way to resolve a number of complex liabilities, including policy to defund and transfer the company's pension schemes to central government.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and implement sales strategies for the government's shareholding in NatWest, working closely with UKGI.
  • Coordinate and manage the process of preparing and implementing sale options.
  • Advise Ministers on issues relating to the management of the shareholding and issues relating to the intervention in the bank.
  • Build and maintain positive relationships with colleagues across the Civil Service and public sector, and with external advisers and other organisations from the private sector.
  • Provide clear advice and briefings to the Treasury Accounting Officer and Ministers, and handle ministerial and other correspondence on issues relating to the NatWest shareholding.
  • Prepare for fiscal events, working with colleagues across the Treasury and at the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) to produce forecasts for sales of the government's financial assets.
Benefits
  • 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).
  • 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.
