Crynodeb
The Office for Investment (OfI) is a joint unit between No.10, HMT and the Department for Business and Trade (DBT). It plays a central and proactive role supporting departments and their Secretaries of State to partner with the world’s leading companies, influence boardroom decisions on the allocation of global capital, and improve the competitiveness of the UK’s regulatory environment.
OfI is proactive and entrepreneurial, delivering ambitious outcomes aligned to the Industrial Strategy and HMG Missions. To become a centre of excellence for attracting and growing investment, we want to attract talented people from the private sector and across government who are curious, creative and agile in pursuing emerging opportunities for the UK.
As well as conventional investment, impact investment, social investment and philanthropy (hereafter referred to as impact capital) has the potential to play a major partnership role in delivering the Missions.
Impact capital refers to investments made with the intention to generate positive, measurable social and environmental impact (often) alongside a financial return. OfI is working with the rest of Whitehall to build more strategic partnerships with mission-driven capital, like impact investment and philanthropy, to combine public, private, and philanthropic resources to generate positive social and environmental impacts in communities.
We are seeking highly motivated individuals, with commercial and sector expertise, to join the OfI’s new Impact Capital Function. This team exists to partner with impact capital connecting this to government priorities, originate partnerships and convene Whitehall around the most strategic opportunities.
You will be part of a team which is driving meaningful outcomes at scale – convening some of the world’s biggest impact capital holders, gaining their trust and building partnerships where shared objectives exist.
The role will be genuinely self-starting and will require a systems thinking to help Whitehall approach impact capital partnerships in a new way, underpinned by collaboration and co-design to catalyse investable propositions across multiple sectors.
You will provide leadership and strategic direction by offering an impact capital perspective on the OfI and wider Government’s activity, with a focus on leveraging impact capital aligned to the Government’s Five Missions and Industrial Strategy.
You will advise senior ministers and officials on unlocking transformative impact capital projects, and will deliver a bespoke service to unlock top-tier investment. You will nurture and manage relationships with senior decision-makers in the Uk and world’s leading impact capital institutions.
You will work closely with other government departments to identify impact capital partnership propositions and play a leading role in originating and structuring opportunities aligned with the Five Missions and the Industrial Strategy. You will build up the department’s relationship with the impact capital community and overcome investment barriers.
You will provide expert, commercially astute advice on how to unlock impact capital to support the Government’s strategies. You will engage industry, investors, academics, and policy experts in other departments to understand market demand, failures, barriers, and opportunities, applying an investor-focused lens to spot gaps and, where needed, challenge the direction of HMG’s approach.
The role is outcome-focused and has significant leadership stretch, with exposure to senior officials, Ministers and C-suite stakeholders.
