Job description

As one of our Senior Policy Managers, you will lead and contribute to policy and strategy that support the FSAs key priorities. You will bring together evidence from a range of sources and turn complex information into clear, well-reasoned advice and options for senior leaders, the FSA Board and Ministers, helping to ensure policies are proportionate, evidence-based and effective in practice.

You will work closely with colleagues across the FSA and with external partners including devolved administrations, other government departments, industry and consumer stakeholders. Depending on the role, you may contribute to incident response activity, support domestic or international policy priorities, or help maintain and reform legislation. All of our posts involve responding flexibly to emerging priorities and business needs and many also involve supporting or managing others.

If this sounds like the role for you, wed love to receive your application.

Working pattern guidance

Applicants who wish to work part time / compressed hours are welcome to apply - however your preferred working pattern may not be available, and you should discuss this with the vacancy holder before applying.

Due to the nature of the role, we are unable to consider requests for part-time working of less than 30 hours per week.

If applying as a job share partnership you should both complete separate application forms on Civil Service Jobs but should make it clear that you are applying as job sharers. Further details on job sharing can be found here JSF What is the recruitment process for job sharers? , Civil Service Careers (civil-service-careers.gov.uk)

Note for FSA employees

You must seek approval from your substantive manager before applying for any non-permanent vacancy - please refer to the Temporary internal appointments framework on the FSA intranet for more details.
