Are you an adept user of Microsoft Outlook and Office, able to independently prioritise a busy workload to deliver to deadlines and communicate effectively with key stakeholders? If so, we’d love to hear from you!
About The Team
The role sits in a small, fast-paced team which offers the chance to work in the centre of government and help deliver Treasury policy across broad and complex portfolios. It is an excellent opportunity for ambitious candidates looking to kick start a successful career in the Civil Service.
The Chancellor’s office is the key link between the Chancellor and the Department, providing her with full policy and administrative support. We are a 10-person team, and work closely with No10, other Ministerial offices, Special Advisers, press office and policy teams; the office is at the centre of all key Treasury decisions. While there can be exceptionally busy periods, we are a friendly and supportive office.
About The Job
You will be one of two Registry Managers who are responsible for helping ensure the smooth operational running of the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s office (the Registry), where support is delivered to a high and consistent standard. The role means being accountable for supporting HMT’s write round issuance and returns process, managing the Chancellor’s and Treasury Ministers’ correspondence, and collating the Chancellor’s briefing materials ahead of Cabinet-level meetings.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar

- Preparing the Chancellor’s box and meetings folder
- Commissioning meeting briefing, notably for Cabinet, National Security Council meetings and HMT Orals
- Running HMT’s responses to cross-government write-rounds, working in tandem with the other Ministerial offices
- Coordinating the office's response to Freedom of Information requests, ensuring they are responded to in a timely manner
- Running small errands for the Chancellor where needed (e.g. lunch 1-2 times a week)
About You
While the majority of your duties will be formed from the above list, the office ultimately provides a wraparound service for the Chancellor and pride ourselves on being flexible, practical and adaptable, as well as stepping in to help each other out to support the office as a whole to run. We are looking for someone who is flexible, adaptable, and willing to do what is necessary to provide an excellent service.
The Chancellor’s Registry operates on a daily shift system, alternating between 09:00-17:00 and 11:00-19:00 Mondays to Fridays. Whilst there may be some flexibility in exceptional circumstances, in-person attendance in HM Treasury’s London office is required when on shift. Different hours may occasionally be required during busy periods, in line with HM Treasury’s flexible working policy.
