Come and play your part in enabling the UK to achieve Net Zero!
This is the time for action – we need to move at pace and reform our energy system – to deliver energy security and tackle climate change. National Grid is committed to delivering strategic infrastructure at a pace never achieved before, to enable the UK to transition to clean energy and achieve net zero.
We’ve agreed a new, fast-track approach with Ofgem, our regulator, and are looking for people who can help our project delivery teams deliver new infrastructure at pace; making sure we demonstrate that we’re striking the right balance between different priorities - especially cost and time - to allow us to maximise the value we deliver for our customers and society. Because it’s a new way of working, you need to be up for solving problems and holding true to principles to ensure we can navigate our way through the unforeseen, establishing consistency and processes for later projects as we deliver the portfolio.
In these regulatory roles you will be working with our project development and delivery teams, each of which is responsible for delivering capital projects of between £100m and many £bns in value. As a Regulatory Manager responsible for leading and securing successful submissions to ensure the project can be delivered on time, you will embed within project teams as an expert creator /coordinator of regulatory submissions which make the case for progression to the next milestone.
You will be the guiding mind on how to evidence our considerations and decision making to Ofgem, bringing your experience to the shape and format of the written submission, demonstrating consumer value and working with the project team who bring the technical information including design, benefits, cost and scheduling considerations. You will take existing project documentation and then work with the project team to fully understand our case for funding and progression. You will coordinate the preparation of written submissions to Ofgem, including by writing and rewriting materials yourself, ensuring that the outputs are acceptable and accessible to Ofgem’s staff. When the submissions you lead are complex and lengthy, you may lead a temporary writing team brought together for weeks or months to support you in shaping our case in writing.
