The Authority will write the standards for counter fraud work across government and hold public bodies to account against these. Working in the PSFA offers access to a wide range of stakeholders across government and the opportunity to work with various sectors in a high profile policy area with high media, parliamentary and ministerial interest.

The Team

This will include ensuring complete paperwork is submitted to the Board, in line with the Code requirements, and driving the continuous improvement of processes, ensuring they meet the highest standards of efficiency and accountability.

You will work closely with stakeholders, to facilitate data-sharing initiatives, helping to unlock insights that support public services, while maintaining a strong commitment to data privacy and legal compliance.

We are looking for an experienced data sharing lead who is passionate about continually improving the government's ability to manage and reduce debt and fraud. The successful candidate will be highly motivated and have experience of working collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders to achieve change and deliver results. You will also have strong leadership and team management skills, experience of overseeing formal board secretariat support.

Drive better understanding of the opportunities the Digital Economy Act fraud and debt data sharing powers can afford to public authorities and develop a pipeline of pilots factoring in wider government priorities.
