The Opportunity
The Taxation and Intergovernmental Affairs Branch (part of the Fiscal Policy Division of the Ministry of Finance) provides public policy and budgetary analysis and advice in the areas of taxation and intergovernmental fiscal relations. The Branch is currently looking for two analysts who will be responsible for:
Researching and analyzing information to provide policy advice to ministries, Treasury Board and Cabinet in respect of various provincial revenues, including income taxes, consumption taxes, non-renewable resource royalties, fees and charges, and federal transfers;
monitoring levies imposed within the province and across Canada to ensure policy consistency and interjurisdictional competitiveness;
accounting for provincial income tax revenues, which includes ensuring that revenues from the federal government are received, recorded, and properly accounted for throughout the year and at year end; and,
represent the Ministry (or support senior representatives) at interministerial and intergovernmental meetings.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is someone who is passionate about contributing to the fiscal planning process and is seeking an opportunity to influence public policy issues. You will have:
a sound understanding and knowledge of current public policy issues and financial management principles;
the ability to convey complex information and strategic insights in a way that allows an audience to understand the issues and correspondingly make decisions;
strong written and oral communication skills, along with strong interpersonal skills and relationship building skills that allow you to work with and influence a variety of stakeholders;
the ability to establish and achieve objectives, often under tight timelines, which may include working some evenings/weekends during peak busy periods; and,
the ability to deal with confidential or sensitive issues.
Typically, the knowledge and skills required for this position would be acquired through completion of a graduate degree in fields related to public administration, finance, accounting, economics, or public policy along with related experience, or through an undergraduate degree in those fields combined with several years of relevant experience.
