About Rishi Sunak
https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-treasury
I grew up watching my parents serve our local community with dedication. My dad was an NHS family GP and my mum ran her own local chemists. I wanted to make that same positive difference to people as an MP and I was first elected to represent the wonderful constituency of Richmond (Yorks) in 2015 and re-elected in 2017.
I have been fortunate to enjoy a successful business career. I co-founded a large investment firm, working with companies from Silicon Valley to Bangalore. Then I used that experience to help small and entrepreneurial British companies grow successfully.
In July 2019 I was appointed Chief Secretary to the Treasury, having entered Government service as the Minister for Local Government in January 2018. In February 2020, I had the honour to be appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer.
