Government Finance Function Career Framework

Details

Overview

The Government Finance Function (GFF) Career Framework marks the next phase of evolution for the GFF and is an exciting milestone for career development and capability building within our function.

The framework has been developed by subject matter experts from across the GFF and tested by people from a cross section of departments and grades working in the roles being defined.

The Finance Career Framework is a vision for the future, not a reflection of the present and it provides an opportunity for us to set standards, drive consistency and set expectations for people working across the finance function.

Thinking of joining government finance?

Our framework is a good starting point to explore the finance job families and gain an insight of the type of work people do in government finance.

What is the Finance Career Framework?

The Finance Career Framework provides a single, comprehensive view of the most common job families and activities within the GFF, to be used as a source of information to help shape career plans at any stage. It gives a clear and agreed cross-government definition of the core finance roles found in most government departments and organisations to help guide consistent job design, recruitment and selection and it outlines the skills, experiences and qualifications needed to operate effectively in these roles
