At the top of your in-tray is Britain's growing pensions crisis. Solve it, and you will go down in history. Get it wrong, and millions of people in work today will blame you when they face poverty in retirement.
But this is not a puzzle with one right answer. Employers, unions and the pensions industry all have their favoured options. The Treasury doesn't want to spend heaps more money on pensions.
But someone has to pay for better pensions. So any solution will make enemies. Doing nothing radical is always the easy short-term option. But it will make the problem worse in the long term.
But helpfully a memo from your civil servants is also in your in-tray. It sets out the big choices to be made in the pensions debate.
This is your chance to be pensions minister for a day, and make those choices. When you've done that, we will tell you the enemies you have made.
Your civil service brief starts by setting out why we have a pensions crisis.
