The European Policy team (EP) leads HMT’s policy advice and analysis on the UK’s multi-faceted economic and financial relationship with the EU, underpinned by the UK’s agreements with the EU, including the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) and the Windsor Framework governing arrangements in Northern Ireland.

Against a challenging geoeconomic context, we are supporting cross-Government work to strengthen the UK’s strategic relationship with the EU and manage the ongoing economic and financial aspects of that relationship. We work across the International Group, the Treasury and other Government departments to ensure the Chancellor and other Treasury Ministers receive robust strategic advice, analysis and briefing on our evolving relationship with the EU and other European trading partners.

EP is a team of around 20 staff based in London and Darlington, with a mix of specialists, economists and finance professionals. The team is an engaging and encouraging place to work, from the opportunity to work on varied and exciting European policy issues and develop trade expertise to a lively social life.

We support flexible working and encourage applications from all backgrounds.
