Location: London / Darlington About the Team The centre for the Government Debt Management Function (GDMF) is a team of 14 specialists providing expertise and strategic direction to unify debt management across government. We work to enhance how overdue debt is addressed. Ensuring payment or repayment by people and businesses is key to protecting public finances and sustaining confidence in our systems. When debts emerge, we act fairly, effectively and efficiently. Recovering money owed to government or collected on its behalf boosts funding for public services, lowers the need for additional borrowing or taxes, and prevents unfair advantage by those who do not pay. We partner with private and debt advice sectors to identify individuals unable to pay due to financial, mental, or physical vulnerabilities, connecting them to relevant support. This approach ensures recovery focuses on those intentionally avoiding repayment. Our Government Debt Strategy 2026-30, alongside Functional Standards, Guidance, and Toolkits, defines management expectations and strategic aims. Our Debt Capability initiatives maintain a professional and innovative workforce equipped to handle debt resolution.
