He is expected to take up his new post in November. &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Rogers has worked in several government departments and in 2006-11 worked as a banker, first with Citigroup and then with Barclays Capital. He was Prime Minister Tony Blair\u2019s principal private secretary in 2003-06.<\/p>\n<p>In 1996-99, he was head of the private office of Leon Brittan, vice-president of the European Commission. (Nick Clegg, the UK\u2019s deputy prime minister, was an adviser to Brittan during that time.)<\/p>\n<p>His appointment has caused some grumblings from the Conservative Party\u2019s eurosceptic wing. In 1994-95, Rogers served as private secretary to the UK\u2019s finance minister at the time, Kenneth Clarke, one of the party\u2019s most outspoken pro-Europeans.<\/p>\n<p>As the prime minister&#8217;s adviser on the EU and global issues, Rogers currently deals not only with EU matters but also with wider issues of trade, energy, climate change, financial markets and international development.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<footer class=\"content-credits\">\n<h6>Authors:<\/h6>\n<dl class=\"vcard\">\n<dt class=\"credits-author\"><span class=\"vcard\">Toby Vogel<\/span>&nbsp;<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<\/footer>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ivan Rogers appointed Britain\u2019s ambassador to EU Prime minister\u2019s Europe adviser to succeed Jon Cunliffe in November.
