Glasgow, United Kingdom National Grid Full time

**Technical Specialist - ESO**:

- Location: Glasgow, GB, G2 1PP Wokingham, GB, RG41 5BN Warwick, GB, CV34 6DA- Division: Electricity System Operator- Job Type:
- Requisition Number: 53781- Department:
- Job Function: Engineering**About the role**:
Within REM we are looking to build a hub of technical expertise, with deep knowledge across energy vectors, that will then support across the breadth of REM activities. The goal of this team is to ensure robust technical underpinning and competence contribute to the functions’ thought leadership and delivery of key outputs. The transformation to NESO will include changes to our position in industry and our interactions with government, the regulator, and wider industry participants. Building specific technical expertise will be critical to demonstrating NESO’s capability and credibility as an independent, expert organisation delivering a function that doesn’t exist today.

This role can be based from Wokingham, Warwick or Glasgow, and we continue to offer hybrid working from office and home. We are open to full time and part time applicants, as well as flexible working arrangements.

**About us**:
As Great Britain’s electricity system operator (ESO), we sit at the heart of the electricity system, using our outstanding engineering and commercial expertise to balance electricity supply and demand. Ultimately, we keep the electricity flowing directly to where it’s needed, second by second.

**Becoming the National Energy System Operator**

As you may have seen the Government and Ofgem have asked the ESO to take on new roles and responsibilities

Becoming NESO is a critical step to help deliver a reliable and clean energy transition for all. The ESO, including all of its existing roles, will be at the heart of the new National Energy System Operator, taking on additional roles with a whole energy system mindset to drive progress towards net zero while maintaining energy security and minimising costs for consumers.

The new organisation 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 by or 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**:

- Specific energy vector knowledge in electricity generation, or distribution, or gas transmission, distribution or terminals expertise
- Specific asset or process knowledge pertaining to network or market analysis, asset design, resilience or solutions would be beneficial
- Prioritise workload across the demands of the REM Directorate, providing accurate and informed insights to:

- Post-Event investigation - providing technical expertise and understanding to support and add technical root-cause analysis when incidents / events have occurred.
- Resilience - including framework review / development, standards review / development, and technical input to industry continuity plans.
- Industry Readiness - including inputting into the emergency readiness assessments of the whole energy industry from a technical standpoint.
- Undertake other duties such as analysis, research and management of projects as required for REM and wider NESO priorities
- Gather and communicate technical expertise as required in internal NESO and external meetings with key industry stakeholders on a range of topics
- Support positioning of NESO in industry through informing on stakeholders and industry bodies to engage with to enable delivery of outputs
- Provie internal training to up skill the REM Directorate and wider NESO teams
- Iteratively continue to build expertise through staying aware of latest trends and developments both specific to the energy sector and new vectors, and wider resilience processes and frameworks, and assist in the continual improvement of NESO’s resilience policies and frameworks

**About you**:
What we do isn’t just important - it’s essential. That’s why we look to recruit experts in their field. In this case, we’re looking for someone who:

- Ability to channel knowledge and expertise into the demands of individual project goals, and acknowledge other vectors or parameters where relevant
- Ability to assemble complex ideas, issues, and observations into clear and simple explanations.
- Strong communication and stakeholder skills - ability to communicate effectively within the organisation and with government and regulators, other external bodies, and potential partners.

**What you'll get**:
A competitive salary up to £70,000pa - dependent on capability.

As well as your base salary, you will receive a bonus based on company performance, 26 days a
