**ABOUT THE BRANCH**

The Budget Estimates and Advice Branch is responsible for the overall management of the Budget process, including advising the Government on the timetable for the Budget and other economic updates. The Branch supports government decision-making on expenditure, including through analysis and advice on program estimates to the Expenditure Review Committee (ERC) of Cabinet, develops Finance’s input into Budget Paper 2, and provides analysis on the Final Budget Outcome (FBO) report. The Branch undertakes and facilitates research, analysis and modelling to build the evidence base on Budget priorities and long-term fiscal pressures.

The team interprets findings and presents insights through written and visual products for a diverse audience (including Ministers and the ERC). The Assistant Director will work closely with Agency Advice Units and Government agencies, to build networks across government to access data and work collaboratively to analyse key policies and programs. The role also requires the development and implementation of strategies to support analytics work, such as data governance, quality assurance and analytics capability building.
