The Income Security Policy Division (ISPD) drives national efforts to help Singaporeans achieve greater financial security in retirement.
As part of this dynamic team, you can expect the role to be challenging yet fulfilling, where you will be exposed to the spectrum of policy making, from policy design to scheme implementation and public communications. In doing so, you will develop an understanding of Singapore’s social security landscape, analyse a wealth of data from multiple agencies (e.g. housing, healthcare, retirement etc.) and engage a variety of stakeholders (e.g. tripartite partners, industry associations, media).
You will work closely with the Central Provident Fund (CPF) Board, Ministry of Finance (MOF), Ministry of Health (MOH), Ministry of National Development (MND) and other key stakeholders to formulate, review and implement policies and initiatives that help Singaporeans meet their retirement, healthcare and housing needs.
You will have the opportunity to work on the following policies:
a. Analysing the wealth of data that we have to assess and project the current and future state of retirement adequacy in Singapore, as well as to develop suitable policies related to CPF to plug any gaps identified;
b. Reviewing and computing our retirement adequacy indicators such as the Basic Retirement Sum; and
c. Quantitatively assessing trade-offs (such as between retirement, housing and healthcare)
You can also look forward to a friendly and nurturing working environment, with experienced supervisors supporting your career development.
