The Ministry of Defence (MOD) finance function is undergoing an exciting and ambitious transformation to become more efficient and effective. To transform MOD finance, we are adopting the government finance operating model. This model will enhance working practices and systems, improve spending accountabilities and create a finance workforce that delivers better strategic value.

​

Our finance staff will lead this transformation by embedding these new ways of working, ensuring we get the most out of our enhanced process and practices and looking for creative ideas to continuously improve in order to deliver an enriched best in class professional service.

​

To deliver this exciting transformation MOD needs to strengthen it’s finance workforce, recruiting individuals who have a variety of skills and experience to help innovate and implement this seismic change. We are particularly keen to use this opportunity to improve diversity in the MOD finance function.

​

More widely it is an exciting time to be working in the government finance function with it’s vision to “put finance at the heart of decision making, driving the agenda, not just keeping score”.

​

A new finance strategy has recently launched to articulate how finance teams and individuals across government can deliver this vision. You can read more about this here.

​

Over the next couple of years MOD finance will be at the heart of delivering this new strategy.  We are looking for ambitious individuals to join us in this exciting transformation. 

​

Good luck with your application,

​
