JOB DESCRIPTION
The Government’s energy and net zero policy remain highly prominent, with a heightened emphasis on ensuring the UK’s energy security and advancing the nation towards its net zero goals.
These roles sit within the Finance Business Partner team. As a trusted financial adviser, you will help to bridge the gap between policy teams and central finance, supporting essential Government initiatives focused on achieving net zero targets and energy security.
You will collaborate closely and develop stakeholder relationships with policy and delivery colleagues, alongside specialists such as analysts, legal and commercial experts. As an AFBP, your role is to ensure that all colleagues across the Department are equipped with the necessary knowledge and support to effectively develop new policy with financial implications and manage expenditure, thereby contributing strongly to the achievement of the Department’s broader objectives. You will work closely with the wider Finance directorate to assist the business in reaching its energy and net zero goals.
These roles provide a unique opportunity to engage with the entirety of our operations. While certain aspects of the role are driven by demand, there is flexibility to tailor the position according to your unique skills and interests.
