The role holder will provide expert advice and support to the highest risk and highest value grant schemes across government. Highly valued by departments and delivering measurable value for money benefits, the role holder will help scheme owners to optimise the effectiveness and efficiency of grant spend by ensuring grant scheme officials have access to expert advice and support on grants policy and risk.
The role holder will identify cross-government insight from the most complex schemes and ensure that learning is disseminated to grant practitioners via the Grants Centre of Excellence, teach-ins and capability training.
Grants are a vital tool for government, supporting the delivery of policy objectives in domestic areas such as education, research, civil society and innovation, and abroad through international aid projects.
The Core Team works across government to support the efficiency and effectiveness use of grant funding, in order to maximise grant outcomes and minimise risk, delivering the greatest benefit to the economy and citizens.
Assurance and Expert Services are a multi-disciplinary team supporting a broad and diverse stakeholder group, we assist with building capability and improving compliance with standards through:
- communicating the Standard for grant making across government departments and their Arm’s Length Bodies;
- monitoring the maturity of grant making departments’ processes, highlighting opportunities and risks;
- providing expert advice through our network of business partners; and
- convening the Complex Grants Advice Panel (CGAP), an independent, cross-government panel of experts, coordinated and chaired by the Cabinet Office – the panel is mandated for Gold grant schemes and those that will deliver manifesto commitments – the panel provides critical challenge to high value, high-risk, priority grant schemes.
Job Description:
As part of the GGMF business partner team, you will be a dedicated point of contact for 4-5 central departments, building strong working relationships and providing tailored support and expert advice on a range of grant-making challenges.
You will proactively identify high-risk, high-value grant schemes, utilising the Readiness Assessment Tool to mitigate risks and improve their design and implementation. Collaborating across diverse teams, you'll engender coordination between schemes with similar goals, maximising synergies and preventing duplication.
Contributing to a culture of continuous improvement, you will help refine expert service processes and systems while championing the functional standard for government grants across all schemes. Your ability to understand diverse needs and deliver a responsive, high-quality service will ensure a positive customer experience. Furthermore, you will play a key role in disseminating learning from complex schemes and contributing to capability training initiatives.
