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 The Climate and Environment Team (CET) acts as the focal point for HM Treasury's work on climate change, net zero and the natural environment. The team leads on embedding domestic climate risk, net zero and environmental policy considerations into the work of the department. We work with teams in tax, spending, economics, trade, fiscal, financial services and financial stability to use the range of levers which Treasury controls. This ensures the government has affordable and economically efficient plans to achieve its legal commitments under the Climate Change Act 2008 and Environment Act 2021. We advance Treasury interests across some of the biggest policy opportunities and challenges facing the UK. This includes; climate mitigation and adaptation, decarbonising heat and industry, water company regulation, waste sector reform, implementing England's agricultural transition plan and reforming our domestic environment policy. Including through new statutory targets for the recovery of the natural world. We lead engagement with spending control for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). We also work closely with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), Cabinet Office and No10 on the government's overall climate change strategy and plan.

Scrutinising spending proposals and supervising the delivery of existing schemes to ensure policies are delivering as expected and responding proactively when required. This will involve making decisions using robust evidence, understanding the role of Government in the sector and advising seniors and ministers. Using strategic thinking and analytical skills to ensure we have a clear strategy for industrial decarbonisation policy. This will involve considering the role of industry in the wider economy, putting clear structures around analytical work, and using the right metrics to communicate complicated policy and its economic context. We are advertising for a role within the Heat and Industrial Decarbonisation branch which offers an exciting opportunity to be at the heart of government policy making to reshape the UK's business and industrial energy use.

Are you looking for the opportunity to work on a wide array of exciting and high-profile issues, with the support of a small and friendly team? If so, we'd love to hear from you! Personal Tax, Welfare and Pensions play a meaningful role in support of the Government's goals of fiscal sustainability, economic growth, and fairness. We look after high-profile tax areas, and coordinate spending controls for other Government departments. We are responsible for over £400bn in tax receipts and £300bn in welfare spending, impacting the lives of millions of citizens across the UK. Our Pensions and Savings team (PST) is looking for two policy advisers to join us; one in the Defined Contribution (DC) pensions branch and the other in the Pensions projects branch. These roles both have significant and far reaching impact. DC pensions branch In the last year, the DC pensions branch has led on major reforms to the way we tax pension contributions, including raising the Annual Allowance and abolishing the Lifetime Allowance. We will continue to focus on improving outcomes for savers by changing the way that pension schemes invest, as well as working closely with DWP on Automatic Enrolment policy. Key accountabilities will evolve over time, but are likely to include: Advising HM Treasury ministers on policy changes related to taxation of pension contributions, including pensions tax relief thresholds and pensions tax relief administration. The postholder will advise ministers on policies to deliver a fair and affordable pensions tax system, and coordinate analysis that supports recommendations. Advising HM Treasury ministers on the future of automatic enrolment policy, taking into account DWP ambitions, cost of living issues for affected people and the fiscal and economic impacts. Advising HM Treasury ministers on issues to do with Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs), including tax issues following early closure of some SIPPs. Presenting government policy on the taxation of pension contributions through drafting responses to queries received by HM Treasury, working closely with other policy teams. Working closely with colleagues across HM Treasury, and strengthening the policy partnership with HMRC by building strong personal relationships with HMRC colleagues, encompassing all stages of the policy process. Pensions projects branch The newly established pension projects branch will lead projects on emerging priorities across the private pensions policy space, meaning you will have the opportunity to work on a wide array of exciting and varied issues. Pension issues can arise in many areas, including labour markets, tax and spending, and financial services and markets. These policy projects have the potential to significantly shape pensions policy and affect millions of savers and investors. Key responsibilities will vary depending on the project, but are likely to include: Advising HM Treasury Ministers on a range of private pensions issues, communicating clearly to enable Ministers to make decisions based on your work. Collecting and analysing evidence to make robust, evidence-based recommendations to Ministers that reflect the government's priorities and the broader fiscal and economic context. Building strong professional relationships with colleagues across HM Treasury and HMRC, to collaboratively advance policy work while navigating differing objectives. Engaging with collaborators to gain knowledge and expertise from others, while also communicating HM Treasury's objectives and work. Contributing to the selection, planning and timely delivery of strategically important projects which consider the political and fiscal context. Facilitating effective project governance to achieve consensus on project direction and supervise project progress. About you You do not need to be a policy professional or have any specific qualifications to succeed in either role. We encourage applications from all backgrounds and previous knowledge of pensions or policy making is not necessary. We are looking for candidates who can collaborate effectively to deliver against shared objectives, analyse information to draw evidenced conclusions and position their work in a wider context. We're also looking for individuals who will bring enthusiasm and motivation to the roles, helping to build a positive team dynamic.

IT Recruitment | Account Manager | London | £40k-45k + Excellent Commission (See Below) Prism Digital is a niche IT Recruitment Consultancy specialising in the DevOps and Cloud industry. We pride ourselves on being experts in our market and offering a consultative approach to our clients, whilst taking a genuine interest in the industries we help hire into. As a team of about half a dozen employees, we are a close-knit bunch with a start-up mentality. Over the next 18 months, we are looking to double our headcount and cement ourselves as *the* leading DevOps talent partner. It's set to be an exciting and very rewarding journey! As an experienced Account Manager, you will have the opportunity to work on key strategic accounts, with no cold calling and guaranteed positions to work on. This is a senior position, so we will expect you to have previous experience working for an IT recruitment consultancy or for a direct employer as an internal recruiter or account manager. You will be the sole dedicated Senior Account Manager to begin with, so there will be opportunities for you to grow and head up your own 180 team. Your career development can move into man-management or to be an 'individual contributor' if this is your preference. We are looking for someone who is comfortable managing multiple business relationships with existing clients at once - handling the recruitment of their open positions from start to finish. It will be important for you to have a keen eye for what makes a suitable candidate and be able to make sure that any candidates in process are given the proper attention required to ensure an optimal recruitment process. Your day-to-day job will involve developing the relationships we have with existing clients and networking with candidates to generate a solid talent pool that you can then deliver into your accounts. Whilst we are a DevOps and Cloud-focused consultancy, some of our long-standing clients do have other requirements beyond our usual niche which we are happy to cater to as part of our land and expand model. A key function of your role as the dedicated Senior Account Manager will be to assist in fulfilling these slightly different positions that our existing clients come to us with. The roles will be technology-focused but they will be diverse, i.e. IT infrastructure, development, data, project management, business analysts etc. What makes us different?

IT Recruitment | Account Manager | London | £40k-45k + Excellent Commission (See Below) Prism Digital is a niche IT Recruitment Consultancy specialising in the DevOps and Cloud industry. We pride ourselves on being experts in our market and offering a consultative approach to our clients, whilst taking a genuine interest in the industries we help hire into. As a team of about half a dozen employees, we are a close-knit bunch with a start-up mentality. Over the next 18 months, we are looking to double our headcount and cement ourselves as *the* leading DevOps talent partner. It's set to be an exciting and very rewarding journey! As an experienced Account Manager, you will have the opportunity to work on key strategic accounts, with no cold calling and guaranteed positions to work on. This is a senior position, so we will expect you to have previous experience working for an IT recruitment consultancy or for a direct employer as an internal recruiter or account manager. You will be the sole dedicated Senior Account Manager to begin with, so there will be opportunities for you to grow and head up your own 180 team. Your career development can move into man-management or to be an 'individual contributor' if this is your preference. We are looking for someone who is comfortable managing multiple business relationships with existing clients at once - handling the recruitment of their open positions from start to finish. It will be important for you to have a keen eye for what makes a suitable candidate and be able to make sure that any candidates in process are given the proper attention required to ensure an optimal recruitment process. Your day-to-day job will involve developing the relationships we have with existing clients and networking with candidates to generate a solid talent pool that you can then deliver into your accounts. Whilst we are a DevOps and Cloud-focused consultancy, some of our long-standing clients do have other requirements beyond our usual niche which we are happy to cater to as part of our land and expand model. A key function of your role as the dedicated Senior Account Manager will be to assist in fulfilling these slightly different positions that our existing clients come to us with. The roles will be technology-focused but they will be diverse, i.e. IT infrastructure, development, data, project management, business analysts etc. What makes us different?
