    Full time
    Description

    Are you looking for a challenging and dynamic role that demands strategic thinking, sound policy judgment, and exceptional communication skills? If yes, we would be thrilled to hear from you.

    About the Team

    We are seeking to hire an International Climate & Environment Policy Adviser within the Global Issues and Governance (GIG) team in the International Group. This team, comprising the Global Issues Unit and the Multilateral Unit, provides significant support to the Chancellor and senior officials in the UK's major multilateral economic relationships, such as the G7 and G20 Finance tracks, and addresses crucial global issues like health and climate change.

    About the Job

    In this position, you will:

    • Lead the development of policy on international climate change and environment issues
    • Offer high-quality policy advice and briefings on policy matters to senior officials, the Chancellor, and other ministers to assist their international engagements, negotiations, and policy priorities
    • Collaborate across HM Treasury and the Government to advance HMT's interests, particularly working in close partnership with FCDO, DESNZ, and DEFRA
    • Contribute the UK's perspective on climate finance topics within the G7, G20, and the Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action
    • Support and coordinate HMT's finance and economic interests in the Conferences of the Parties (COPs) for the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and UN Convention on Biological Diversity (UNCBD)

    This role offers a fascinating blend of international relationship management and shaping both international and domestic policy. Effective policymaking involves identifying necessary changes and solutions while aiding Ministers in achieving the best outcomes. It also entails devising and executing plans to implement those changes or solutions.

    No specific policy background or qualifications are required to apply for the role of Policy Adviser at HM Treasury. We seek individuals with the right skill set for the position, who embody our organization's values, and who are eager to collaborate with us on critical issues concerning government expenditure and public services.

    About You

    The ideal candidate will possess the ability to foster productive relationships with individuals of varying roles and perspectives. This includes swiftly establishing credible senior relationships and working closely with a broad network of domestic and international peers. Additionally, you should excel in analyzing and synthesizing diverse technical and economic information to form sound policy positions.

    You should also demonstrate flexibility and autonomy in managing competing deadlines and objectives. Strong organizational skills, project planning abilities, and the capacity to swiftly grasp issues and proactively contribute in a fast-paced policy setting are essential.

    HMT is dedicated to maintaining a diverse and inclusive workplace that upholds fairness and equality of opportunity for all. We recognize that diverse experiences and perspectives make us a more robust organization, better equipped to develop policies that resonate with the communities we serve. We welcome applications from individuals with various backgrounds and circumstances, irrespective of disability, ethnicity, LGBT+ identity, or socio-economic status.

    Some of the Perks our team appreciates

    • 25 days of annual leave (increasing to 30 after 5 years), in addition to 8 public holidays and the King's birthday (unless covered by an existing Civil Servant legacy arrangement). Moreover, our flexitime systems allow employees to take up to 2 additional days off each month
    • Flexible working arrangements (part-time, job-share, condensed hours)
    • Generous parental and adoption leave packages
    • Access to a robust Defined Benefit pension scheme with employer contributions amounting to 27%
    • Opportunity to participate in a cycle-to-work salary sacrifice scheme and obtain season ticket advances
    • A variety of active staff networks focused on interests (e.g., analysts, music society, sports and social club) and diversity (e.g., women in the Treasury, ethnic minority network, LGBT* network, faith and belief network)
