Financial Inclusion Policy Adviser
2 weeks ago
Do you have knowledge and understanding of how different vulnerabilities can affect consumers’ money management and use of financial products? If so, we’d love to hear from you
About the Team
The Personal Finances and Funds Team is responsible for a wide-ranging portfolio of high-profile consumer finance issues. Policy areas covered by the team include asset management, financial advice and capability, consumer credit, and consumer debt.
The team is an exciting and supportive place to work. We place a strong focus on championing an inclusive team culture, seek to model best practice as a policy team, and explore new and innovative ideas, recognising the fast-moving nature of the team’s policy area.
Financial inclusion means that people are able to access appropriate and affordable financial products which allow them to build their financial resilience and participate fully in the economy. The barriers to financial inclusion are complex, ranging from thin credit files to a lack of digital capability. This role represents an opportunity to play a key part in ensuring people have access to the products they need, while also working on the interventions put in place for when things go wrong.
About the Job
In this role, you will:
- Lead policy development for the breathing space scheme, working with stakeholders across government to ensure it remains a useful intervention for those who need it.
- Build and maintain positive relationships with civil servants across HM Treasury to help develop and coordinate government policy in support of financial inclusion.
- Provide high-quality briefing to government ministers and senior civil servants on specific issues, such as economic abuse, and wider financial inclusion policy.
- Take responsibility for the timely response of parliamentary questions, letters from the public, and freedom of information requests in your policy area.
About You
You are able to build relationships with different stakeholders and use these to arrive at high quality outcomes; can contribute to the delivery of work in a timely manner, balancing different priorities and are able to develop and present reasoned arguments based on analysis of evidence.
Some of the Benefits our people love
· 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). Additionally, we operate flexitime systems, allowing employees to take up to an additional 2 days off each month
· 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 (e.g. analysts, music society, sports and social club) and diversity
