Monetary and Financial Conditions Division (MFCD) Overview
Within the Bank's Monetary Analysis (MA) Directorate, MFCD proactively influences current and future policymaking. We are expert advisers and pioneering researchers on monetary, credit and financial conditions, their relationship with the real economy and the transmission of monetary policy. We use this expertise to innovatively design and rigorously evaluate the monetary policy and wider Bank balance sheet toolkits. We collaborate extensively with colleagues in the Monetary Analysis Directorate and other areas of the Bank across our broad remit. We work particularly closely with Markets Directorate, and also have close links with Financial Stability Strategy and Risk Directorate and the Prudential Regulation Authority.
MFCD is around 35 people in total, with a Leadership Team (two co-Heads of Division, Senior Managers and Advisers), research and policy economists and data analysts. We are organised into three teams:
* The Interest Rate and Asset Pricing team extracts signals from asset prices to understand the underlying drivers of financial market moves, including the shocks hitting the UK economy, how asset prices influence the outlook, and how financial markets are interpreting monetary policy.
* The Credit, Banking and Finance team produces expert analysis on the outlook for UK credit conditions and broad money, and assesses how monetary policy decisions transmit through banks and capital markets to credit conditions.
* The Policy Framework Team (PFT) is focussed on readying the Bank's monetary policy toolkit and balance sheet for future shocks, collaborating extensively across the Bank on toolkit/balance sheet design and evaluation. PFT also leads on designing and assessing the MPC's quantitative tightening strategy.
Policy Framework Team
The Policy Framework Team (PFT) is focussed on better understanding the MPC's unconventional policy toolkit, as well as readying that toolkit and the Bank's wider balance sheet for future shocks. That includes designing and assessing the MPC's quantitative tightening strategy and telling policymakers what they need to know about conventional and unconventional monetary policy tools and their interactions, including with the rest of the Bank's balance sheet toolkit. PFT is at the forefront of integrating insights from research into policy, and in investing in big questions like how different mixes of tools should be used to respond to different shocks.
Job description
The PFT senior manager (SM) is responsible for ensuring that PFT delivers high-quality analytical work for MPC and other policymakers that is timely, focused and influential, making effective use of MFCD's research and technical expertise; for supporting team members to develop and move forward with their careers; for helping to drive forward MFCD's strategic evolution; and for being an effective member of the wider management team in the Monetary Analysis Directorate.
As well as directly influencing MPC, PFT represents MA across a broad range of topics led out of other areas of the Bank, with an extensive array of stakeholders. The PFT SM maintains good sight of relevant developments across the Bank, advising seniors on when and how best to engage.
MFCD benefits from 5 Senior Advisers, 2 of whom predominantly work with PFT. These 2 advisers support the PFT SM through leading on specific topics/areas of expertise, as well as sharing some management responsibilities. The exact split of responsibilities across the PFT SM and Advisers will evolve depending on the experience, skills and preferences of the successful candidate.
Number of direct reports: Around 6, depending on split with senior advisors.

Our Approach to Inclusion
The Bank values diversity, equity and inclusion. We play a key role in maintaining monetary and financial stability, and to do that effectively, we believe we need a workforce that reflects the society we serve.
At the Bank of England, we want all colleagues to feel valued and respected, so we're working hard to build an inclusive culture which supports people from all backgrounds and communities to be at their best at work. We celebrate all forms of diversity, including (but not limited to) age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation and socioeconomic status. We believe that it's by drawing on different perspectives and experiences that we'll continue to make the best decisions for the public.
We welcome applications from individuals who work flexibly, including job shares and part time working patterns. We've also partnered with external organisations to support us in making adjustments for candidates and employees in the recruitment process where they're needed.
For most roles where work can be carried out at home, we aim for colleagues to spend half of their time in the office, with a minimum of 40% per month. Subject to that minimum requirement, individuals and managers should work together to find what works best for them, their team and stakeholders.
Finally, we're proud to be a member of the Disability Confident Scheme. If you wish to apply under this scheme, you should check the box in the 'Candidate Personal Information' under the 'Disability Confident Scheme' section of the application.
