Job summary

If youre interested in making a difference to peoples lives, the Treasury can offer you an exciting opportunity to influence decision making that affects the whole of the UK. Working at the heart of government, we collaborate across government to promote responsible public spending and drive strong and sustainable economic growth.

Our work ranges from protecting customers through the regulation of the financial sector, helping to reduce carbon emissions and creating a greener economy, to promoting British trade around the world and supporting people across the country on jobs, growth and more.

We are part of the Darlington Economic Campus, a cross-government hub bringing people together to tackle key national issues while working closer to the communities we serve.

The Budget and Finance Bill Team is a fun and supportive team which sits at the centre of the Treasury and is responsible for delivering the departments policy objectives through Budgets and Statements. The team works with privates offices, special advisers, policy teams, HMRC, comms specialists and more to bring together a coherent package of tax, welfare and spending policy announcements and present these to the outside world in the most effective way.

Job description

You will be responsible for ensuring the smooth running of Budget and Statements across the department, delivering a high quality of service, identifying and mitigating risks, and driving delivery. You do not need any specific qualifications or experience to take on this role, just evidence of the right behaviours, values and motivation to succeed.

Key accountabilities for this role frequently include the following, although exact responsibilities are flexibly allocated across the branch and can be tailored to post holders interests:

Creating and managing a project plan for delivering Budgets and Statements, covering the full range of milestones and processes relevant to fiscal event delivery including Ministerial meetings and movements, policy development, presentational products, and legislation.
Coordinating the development, clearance and publication of Budget documents, including Charts and Tables included in the main budget document (the publication setting out all policies being announced), and supplementary documents published alongside the main document on budget day (which can number anywhere between 30 and 90).
Leading on core elements of fiscal event delivery, including organising kick off and post event townhalls for the department, providing secretariat for the weekly budget directors meetings in the run up to fiscal events and coordinating weekly comms emails from the budget team to the department.
Building and maintaining strong relationships with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders to ensure essential budget services are delivered and there is timely and high-quality input into budget processes run by the branch; including private offices, policy leads, HMRC, internal comms, the internal reprographics service, the external printing supplier (who typeset and print the main budget document), and HMT facilities, security and caterers.
Designing and implementing a cross-departmental lessons learned process to collect, review and act on feedback from the department across all budget processes run by the team. This will include facilitating discussions within the team and with key stakeholders to reflect on processes and team ways of working, designing actions to address these, and driving implementation.
Account management of an allocated policy workstream (such as all measures in a budget relating to public services, or welfare and labour markets), including tracking policy development and ensuring timely input into budget products and processes.

In time and with sufficient experience, the role holder may have the opportunity lead on key presentational processes run by the branch, including:

Leading a x-HMT process to identify and mitigate presentational risks associated with budget policy packages, by organising challenge panels and advising the Chancellor.
Coordinating the development of a comprehensive briefing pack covering every policy announced at fiscal events to support Ministers, officials and press officers from across government engage with stakeholders and explain the budget package confidently.
Work with the comms team to collate and influence stakeholder handling plans in the run up to and directly after budget and Statements.

Long hours can sometimes be required in the period immediately before a Budget or Statement, and you will need to be able to travel to London for short periods of time around a fiscal event. However, SPB is committed to helping staff maintain a good work-life balance and actively manages flexible working practices to balance hours over the course of the year.
