Thank you for your response, it got me hunting around some more and this
works:
\version "2.16"
VoiceI = { a a }
BassFiguresLine = \figuremode {
\once \override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'Y-offset = #'15.0 < 6
4>4 < 5 4>4
}
\score {
\new Staff <<
\context Staff \BassFiguresLine
\new Voice \VoiceI
>>
}
I think this is enough for my purpose, though I would be intrigued to
know if a tweak is possible to move a single figure as well.
