London, Greater London, United Kingdom HM TREASURY Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled Government Policy Analyst to join our team at HM TREASURY. This is an exciting opportunity to work on key government priorities and shape the next stage of the English devolution agenda.

About the Team

The Local Government and Reform team is responsible for managing HM Treasury's interests in local government policy and funding. We work closely with colleagues in the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), and other departments, to shape the government's approach to local economic growth and local government.

This includes ensuring that councils have the resources they need to deliver key services and implement government priorities, including reform of adult and children's social care. We also seek to ensure that financial powers and policy responsibilities are devolved to the most appropriate level of government. HM Treasury has an interest in these issues from both a spending perspective (ensuring expenditure is affordable and delivered to budget) and an economic perspective (evaluating whether policies offer value-for-money and will deliver the benefits envisaged). The team is split into two units: English Devolution and Economic Clusters Unit and the Local Government Finance Unit.

  1. Lead the Treasury's work on English devolution for the Spending Review: The post holders will lead for the Treasury on the English devolution elements of MHCLG's Spending Review settlement and ongoing English devolution spending and implementation issues.
  2. Lead the Treasury's work on the English Devolution Bill: The post holders will work closely with MHCLG on the upcoming English Devolution Bill, informed by the English Devolution White Paper.
  3. Support on broader policy development: Working collaboratively with teams across Treasury, central and local government to develop policy on English devolution, including how the Treasury can support work on place-based public service reform, and providing input on the role of local leaders in policy work across the department.

This role will work closely with neighbouring branches coordinating the Treasury's overall approach to regional growth and supporting sustainable local government finances. We encourage all members of the team to build relationships with people across the local government sector so that our advice is informed by a diversity of perspectives and the best possible evidence base.

What You'll Get

  • A salary of approximately £45,000-£60,000 per annum, depending on experience.
  • 25 days annual leave (rising to 30 after 5 years), plus 8 public holidays and the King's birthday.
  • 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 28%.
  • Access to a cycle-to-work salary sacrifice scheme and season ticket advances.
  • A range of active staff networks, based around interests and diversity.
