**Job summary**:
Ofgem works on behalf of energy consumers to ensure that every household and business in GB can rely on a safe energy supply. We are playing a vital part in accelerating the transition to Net Zero and a carbon neutral energy system. Whatever your role, you’ll be playing your part in creating new energy solutions that are great for customers and great for the environment.

We offer a diverse range of flexible working career opportunities: roles that are stimulating and rewarding, where you can get involved in ground-breaking work. It’s important to us that we recruit from a wide range of professional and personal backgrounds - bringing different perspectives and experiences to our work.

Interest in hydrogen as part of a net zero energy system is growing rapidly and Ofgem has a vital role to understand both what is needed to facilitate its use and to protect energy consumers’ interests. You’ll be an important member of our Hydrogen Team: policy, engineering, legal and regulatory experts who work across Ofgem (as well as with government and industry). You’ll work to understand, inform and influence thinking, supporting the development of a robust evidence base for policy and regulatory frameworks which could support a potential hydrogen pathway. Representing Ofgem in industry meetings, and building relationships with both internal and external stakeholders you’ll make evidence-based recommendations to senior decision makers. You will have responsibility for senior management briefing materials, the development of strong relationships with relevant parties, and strategic planning and risk management.

You'll need to demonstrate experience of analysing complex concepts and informing recommendations as part of a policy or strategy development process along with the ability to identify relevant risks and their mitigations, and be highly competent at analysing and manipulating data. A strong communication skillset will mean you’re comfortable in a range of activities - from producing analysis for managers, to representing Ofgem in external meetings and engaging effectively with stakeholders. You’ll bring a proactive, collaborative and flexible attitude, and be unfazed by operating in a fast-changing environment. Excellent project management, with the ability to meet deadlines and manage multiple priorities, is essential; and we’re looking for solid evidence that you can think creatively and work independently.

Within the role you will be part of Ofgem’s Policy and Strategy profession which will support all of your personal and professional development needs alongside the ability to work flexibly across teams.

**Job description**:
The Low Carbon Regulated Asset Base (RAB) team is a collection of high performing, collaborative and flexible staff, working across a number of new and exciting policy areas. Our work is highly varied, from advising the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and His Majesty's Treasury (HMT) on regulatory and strategic issues, developing new approaches to financing large scale energy investment, regulating new energy technologies and services, to developing policy crucial for meeting our decarbonisation goals.

Some of the team’s remit currently includes carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), new nuclear investment and hydrogen transport.

As part of a cooperative and interdependent team of policy, finance, engineering, legal and regulatory experts, new joiners to the team will have the opportunity to take responsibility for managing aspects of the programme and to undertake detailed development of core components of the regulatory regime for Ofgem’s Low Carbon RAB work.

We are currently recruiting a Policy Advisor to support the Hydrogen Transport RAB policy delivery and the Programme Management Office (PMO) across the Low Carbon RAB team’s areas. However, we operate a flexible resourcing model and you may be re-deployed across the organisation to meet business priorities.

**Person specification**:
**Key Responsibilities**
- Support the development of policy thinking and delivery for the hydrogen policy aspects of the Low Carbon RAB programme. For these aspects, this will include
