The Fraud, Error Debt and Grants (FEDG) Group is a growing group of experts based in the Cabinet Office. It consists of the central hubs for three Government Functions: Counter Fraud; Debt Management; and Grants Management. They lead the three functions in these areas, under the wider functional model for government.
The Centre of Expertise for Counter Fraud (CoEx), which forms the central hub of the Government’s Counter Fraud Function, is internationally recognised as a world-leader in tackling fraud and corruption in the public sector.
Right now, fraud represents a cost to the government which is estimated at £29.3bn-£52bn per year. This is likely to grow even further due to the additional COVID-19 spend and increasingly sophisticated frauds.
At CoEx, we play an instrumental role in spearheading the Government's response to fraud by developing innovative policies and initiatives to counter this threat with the mission of funneling real, tangible financial benefits back to the public.
Working with us, you will be placed at the forefront of shaping policy that will have an impact across the breadth of the public sector.
There are currently over 50 new opportunities that have opened up within the Counter Fraud Function of the FEDG Group. These roles offer an unparalleled opportunity to work at the very heart of government.
All vacancies are advertised through the Civil Service Jobs website. A list of current opportunities, including links to each role, is below.
The Centre of Expertise for Counter Fraud (CoEx) is hosting a candidate drop-in session on Wednesday 2nd June 4:30-5:30pm, to discuss the opportunities that have recently opened up in our organisation.
