Do you want to advise Ministers on promoting and protecting the UK's economy and its competitiveness internationally in a fast-changing environment? If so, read on! About the Team International Group provides opportunities to work on areas including - spending control on international development, trade policy, climate change, health, cooperation on Ukraine, economic security, financial sanctions and tackling illicit finance. We also manage economic relationships with Europe, US, China and other advanced economies and emerging markets. We build relationships with external and international partners and represent the UK in a range of international groupings and institutions, including the G7, the G20, the International Monetary Fund and at some of the Multilateral Development Banks. We also analyse international comparisons and the wider global economic context, including for fiscal events. Although international travel is an important part of some roles, it is not required for every role in the group and will be specified if required. About the Job The G20 and G7 Presidencies Delivery Unit plays a key role in the delivery of the UK's presidencies of the G20 in 2027 and G7 in 2028 - major international forums where the UK will be on the world stage. The UK will be responsible for setting the agenda for these years, delivering consensus across shared priorities and hosting the majority of meetings. The team specifically leads on the elements chaired by the Chancellor - the "Finance Track" (the series of G20/G7 meetings focused on economic and financial issues) - including the project management, communications, governance and delivery of all in-person and virtual events. Key accountabilities for this role will include: Delivery lead and end-to-end events management for a programme of high-profile events across the UK which reflect policy priorities. Coordination of venue procurement, budget oversight to ensure value for money, management of contractors, and on-site event delivery. Close liaison with Cabinet Office and other government departments on meeting delivery. Project management lead, ensuring join-up and effective collaboration across teams. Driving activity across HMT and with other departments to ensure deadlines are met. Drafting of high-quality advice, status updates and briefings for senior officials and Ministers to ensure delivery is aligned to broader policy priorities. Potential line management of one junior team member (Higher Executive Officer). Although this is a permanent role, it is expected that the team will wind down shortly after the UK's G7 Presidency, which is due to run until the end of 2028. The Group will endeavour to place staff in other roles in the Group at that point in time and HMT policies on staff who are without a permanent role will apply. There is likely to be frequent travel within the UK as part of this role, particularly around major events. About You This Senior Executive Officer (SEO) role would suit an experienced events professional who has delivered large, high-profile events - for example in government, corporate, nonprofit or international settings. Portfolios will adapt and change during the lifecycle of the project and all team members will be expected to work flexibly across workstreams as required. Roles are exciting and challenging with significant responsibility. It will be a fast-paced period in the run up to and during the presidencies and will require an ability to deliver at pace and with agility, so as a team we can respond nimbly to global events.
