Warwick, United Kingdom National Gas Full time

**About the role**:

- This is the time for action - we need to move at pace and reform our energy system - to deliver energy security, to tackle climate change and to protect our people.- The Compliance Assurance Specialist role sits in the 2nd line of defence. You will play a pivotal safeguarding role for our business and be responsible for ensuring our employees comply with applicable laws, regulations and policies. You will also be responsible for testing the effectiveness and efficiency of the supporting control frameworks.- The role involves supporting your team and senior colleagues in the delivery of our Annual Assurance Plan. You will conduct tests of effectiveness over key operational and fraud and bribery controls in place to mitigate risk exposure and support in the delivery of an effective quality assurance programme.- This role can be based from Wokingham or Warwick, with travel to either site when required and we continue to offer hybrid working from office and home.**About us**:

- The ESO has a key role to play in tackling climate change by transitioning GB’s electricity system to net zero. We already operate the fastest decarbonising electricity system in the world, with an ambition for zero carbon operation by 2025. And by 2035, we want to run 100% clean, green energy, all the time.**Becoming the Future System Operator**
In 2021, government and Ofgem jointly consulted on proposals for an expert, impartial Future System Operator (FSO) with responsibilities across both the electricity and gas systems, to drive progress towards net zero while maintaining energy security and minimising costs for consumers. In October 2023, the Energy Act 2023 was passed, legislating for this Future System Operator to be created.- The ESO, including all of its existing roles, will be at the heart of the new Future System Operator. We will be taking on additional roles across vectors and sectors to create an organisation with a whole energy system mindset; enabling us to identify solutions to our energy system that are more sustainable, secure, and affordable for all.- The FSO will be set up as a public corporation with operational independence from government - bringing parties together to support optimised decision making and action. As now, it will be licenced and regulated by Ofgem through price control agreements. It is anticipated that the new organisation will be up and running in 2024.- The time to act on climate change is now. As part of our team, you won’t just be touching the lives of almost everyone in Great Britain - you’ll be shaping the way we use and consume energy for generations to come.**Key accountabilities**:

- Delivering on your annual program of work to time, cost and quality.

- The Compliance Return
- Annual Certificate of Assurance
- Key Fraud and Bribery controls

- Working across functional lines (Legal, Finance, HR, Audit) to support in the development and enhancement the control framework.
- Collaborating with wider functions e.g. General Council & Company Secretary and People & Culture, to ensure compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and company policies.
