If you’re interested in making a difference to people’s 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.
About the Team We are advertising for an SEO to join our settlement and innovation branch within our Financial Market Infrastructure (FMI) Unit . The FMI unit are a friendly and encouraging branch of 6 people (1 E2 (Grade 6), 2 Es (Grade 7) and 2-3 Ds (HEO/SEO)). FMIs are often described as the ‘plumbing’ of the financial system – without them, most transactions that take place across financial markets couldn’t happen. FMIs underpin the overall stability and resilience of markets and help avoid problems at individual firms from translating to a wider systemic collapse. Given the importance of UK FMIs to the global financial system, they generate significant interest from abroad and this has a strong influence on the unit’s work.
FMIs are also at the forefront of the modernisation of markets, particularly with the advent of new and exciting innovations like distributed ledger technology. The postholder would lead much of the unit’s work in this space, particularly as it relates to central securities depositories (a type of market infrastructure where securities are held and transferred) and digital assets.
About the Job Key Responsibilities include: 1. Planning and delivering a “Digital markets” strategy to help modernise and improve UK markets, accounting for wider governmental aims in this space. 2. Becoming a subject matter expert on settlement and digital assets and independently take forward work to support the government’s agenda in these areas. 3. Overseeing the delivery and implementation of market reforms through secondary legislation – working collaboratively with Treasury lawyers. 4. Preparing advice for and working with Ministers and seniors on decisions, risks or issues pertaining to your policy. 5. Monitoring international/technological developments in the digital assets space and ensuring these are fed through/accounted for in the unit’s work. 6. Lead engagement with the financial services regulators and key financial services industry partners on a variety of important policy issues related to your policy area. The work in the unit therefore combines an exciting focus on the technical detail of financial markets and regulation with a bigger picture appreciation of ongoing political and technological developments. Within this role, you will get the chance to deliver policy that affects thousands of financial institutions as well as the average retail investor. This role is stretching, intellectually demanding and will give the successful candidate a high level of policy responsibility and independence, as well as the opportunity to develop a specific policy expertise.
About You The postholder would be jointly responsible for delivering a forward strategy for the digitalisation of financial markets which will help ensure that UK markets remain resilient, innovative and competitive on a global stage. The postholder would be expected to work closely with the Bank of England and Financial Conduct Authority to deliver on this as well as on new or ongoing workstreams to promote digital assets in the UK, such as the recently opened “Digital Securities Sandbox”.
Alongside this more strategic angle, the postholder would also be expected to lead on the reform of certain bits of UK legislation (e.g. our financial collateral regulations) to help enable the use of new technologies and to support the government’s wider mission to foster UK competitiveness and growth. This would involve developing a sophisticated understanding of the complex processes and frameworks that enable financial markets to operate, as well as the technical detail of the legislation that governs these.

About the Team The Energy and Transport Tax (ETT) work at the heart of balancing HM Treasury’s fiscal, economic and environmental objectives. We are responsible for taxes collectively raising around £50bn through transport, oil & gas, energy & carbon and environmental taxes. As a result, our work covers a broad range of high-profile policy areas that get significant amounts of ministerial and public attention, particularly in light of the Government’s Net Zero agenda.
About the role We are looking for new Head of Transport Tax, working three days a week to form a new jobshare with the incumbent who currently works Monday-Wednesday. This is an exciting, varied and high profile role with an outstanding combination of a large and stretching leadership role on tax policy. You'll have cross-cutting responsibility for crafting and implementing a strategy for using tax levers to decarbonise the surface transport, aviation and shipping sectors. To give a sense of the scale of the role, at Autumn Budget 2024 the branch had around 15 separate measures, of which 7 appeared on the Budget scorecard.
Key accountabilities Co-lead a team of 5 by building an open, encouraging and inclusive environment. Create and develop a strong, open and effective jobshare partnership which provides clear and consistent leadership and direction to the team alongside an excellent service to Ministers. Engage with teams across HM Treasury and with other government departments to gain consensus on policy options for transport taxation that meet the Government’s and objectives, including fiscal sustainability, net zero and economic growth. Lead on 7 different transport taxes and associated reliefs, working across HM Treasury and HMRC to give Ministers clear, strategic and politically astute advice on potential changes to these taxes, and working delivery partners to implement those changes optimally, including via fiscal events. Lead work to explore practical and politically deliverable options for how the system of motoring taxation might change and adapt as the transport sector decarbonises and transitions from fossil fuels to less emission-intensive sources of power. Together with senior leadership, jointly lead and manage the Energy and Transport Team, providing inspiring, visible and inclusive leadership and contribute actively to making ETT and the wider group a great place to work.
About you The role would suit someone with a passion for leading inclusive teams and who can grasp sophisticated policy issues.
