The Lord's Commissioners of HM Treasury consist of the First Lord of the Treasury (who is also the Prime Minister), the Chancellor of the Exchequer and five Junior Lords. This Board of Commissioners is assisted at present by the Chief Secretary, the Parliamentary Secretary (who is the Government Chief Whip in the House of Commons), the Paymaster General, the Financial Secretary and the Economic Secretary.
The Prime Minister as First Lord is not primarily concerned with the day-to-day aspects of Treasury business, neither are the Parliamentary Secretary and the Junior Lords as Government Whips.
