Job description:

The Public Services Group is at the heart of the Treasury's work to secure strong and sustainable public finances.

We manage public spending of more than £250 billion across key public services and departments, including health, education, the police, the criminal justice system, local government, housing, defence and the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.


We do this by working with other government departments, Ministers, and other Treasury teams to ensure that spending plans support high quality public services and provide value for money for the taxpayer.


Our roles offer a range of opportunities to work with senior leaders in other government departments, as well as helping to ensure the effective delivery of public services that so many people rely on.

We work with the Ministry of Defence, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, Intelligence Agencies and Cabinet Office/No. 10 on pivotal and often sensitive decisions supporting the policy and operational capabilities of the UK.

This also means we work across the Treasury with other Spending Teams, the Enterprise and Growth Unit, and the International Group to help balance multiple objectives.


The FCDO Spending Branch works very closely with both Development Policy and ODA spending teams in the Treasury's International Group, providing oversight and advice to Ministers on FCDO's £11 billion annual budget.

The team also provides policy and spending control over the new £1 billion p.a.

Integrated Security Fund (ISF), the Government's main programme fund for delivering the UK's National Security objective both internationally and domestically.

We have a broad remit across covering both international development and national security, meaning there is always something new to learn and something exciting going on.
