Treasury
Joining the Treasury in 2004, Szubin served in the Bush administration, as the Senior Advisor to the Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence. From 2006 to 2015 (three years in the Bush administration and a further six in the Obama administration), Szubin served as the Director of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. On April 16, 2015, President Obama nominated him as Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Crimes.[4] In 2016, the Senate Banking Committee approved his nomination but the full Senate never confirmed him. Still unconfirmed by the Senate, Trump asked him to stay on in his post as Under Secretary.[5] He became the Acting Secretary of the Treasury of the United States after the resignation of Treasury Secretary, Jack Lew, and Deputy Treasury Secretary, Sarah Bloom Raskin, on January 20, 2017. After the expected confirmation of Steven Mnuchin as Secretary of the Treasury, Szubin will leave government service to pursue other endeavors.[6]
