Job summary

This is an exciting time to join the Smarter Regulation Directorate�s Economic Regulation Implementation Team in the Department for Business and Trade; we are a growing, flexible and supportive team who are spread across the UK, including a significant presence in London and Edinburgh. With a particularly stretching, cross-cutting brief, this role provides an excellent opportunity to build the skills and experience needed to deliver long-term policy reform.�

Following the recent publication of the Regulation for Innovation, Investment and Growth white paper, we are focused on delivering a series of cross-cutting reforms. This includes:�

The first step will be to collect and analyse information on existing work, which the current but expended Ofgem-led working group will lead with government direction.��Taking forward a holistic assessment of infrastructure investment needs in energy networks, water and telecoms sectors.

Through this policy delivery role, you will get the opportunity to shape and inform the delivery of all these commitments. The successful candidate will have a critical role in ensuring they remain on track and government can demonstrate the steps being taken to secure long term, sustainable investment in the energy, water and telecoms sectors whilst ensuring that consumers are getting the support they need.�

The team are also working to publish the second part of government�s response to the strengthening economic regulation in the energy, water and telecoms sector consultation. With this setting out next steps on the remaining proposals from the original consultation, you will also be required to work flexibly to help shape the delivery of an evolving and wide-reaching policy portfolio.��

Job description

This role offers the opportunity to work on a range of policy commitments which have significant exposure to ministers and stakeholders at senior levels, across government, regulators and externally.��

The successful candidate will be primarily focused on policy delivery which includes:�

Developing a comprehensive understanding of economic regulation policy reforms, particularly those in both parts of the government response to the strengthening economic regulation on the water, energy and telecoms sector consultation.�Working closely with the wider economic regulation implementation team to develop workplans for policy reforms.�Leading on the development and oversight for all programme management products such as risk registers and delivery reports.��Preparing advice for a range of senior stakeholders including ministers, directors and other departments.�Helping to build and maintain effective relationships with a range of stakeholders including cross-government policy teams, regulators, senior civil servants and ministerial private offices.�
