Overview
Can you write meaningful, accessible reports? If so, we want to hear from you. The Scottish Fiscal Commission is a small, independent public body with 28 staff. We produce independent, robust forecasts and assessments to improve the transparency and scrutiny of the Scottish Budget.
As governance manager, you’ll make sure the Scottish Fiscal Commission is compliant, accountable and efficient. Being so wee means that we’re close to our planning and our reporting so you’ll work closely with our Chief Executive and senior management team. You can see the plans, reports and minutes you’ll be delivering at Introduction | Scottish Fiscal Commission.
