Shape the policy that delivers a greener, fairer energy system for the UK. Join Ofgem’s Infrastructure group and be at the forefront of the drive to deliver Net Zero

If you are a visionary leader with a passion for driving impactful policy initiatives, and a dedication to a sustainable energy future, then we want to hear from you.

As Great Britain's regulator for the energy industry, Ofgem exists to ensure a safe, secure and sustainable energy supply to British households and businesses.

As the Head of Policy at Ofgem, you will be a pivotal figure in leading a multi-disciplinary team. Your main responsibility will be to oversee and drive the development of policy initiatives and strategies that support Ofgem’s goals. In this role, you will collaborate closely with other teams, industry experts, and stakeholders to ensure the effective execution of policy recommendations.

These roles will sit within Ofgem’s Infrastructure group. We are responsible for designing new regulatory regimes for price controls and major projects, developing new regimes in low carbon technologies, delivering change to energy systems, wholesale markets and governance arrangements and much more.

You will have the opportunity to work at the cutting edge of regulatory policy design and delivery, as part of collaborative and dynamic teams with industry leading experts. It is challenging but vitally important and highly rewarding work, and we aim to create the best possible environment for people to grow and develop their careers.

You will have a proven aptitude for leadership and significant experience of leading the policy development process.** **These skills will play a vital role in building effective relationships with teams and stakeholders, fostering an inclusive culture that celebrates the diverse voices and experiences of our colleagues, and ensuring that we best represent the consumers and communities we serve. Your exceptional communication skills will enable you to effectively communicate complex policy issues to non-expert audiences, translating them into accessible messages.

Ofgem has a culture of inclusion that encourages, supports and celebrates the diverse voices and experiences of our colleagues. It fuels our innovation and helps ensure we can best represent the consumers and the communities we serve. Everyone is welcome - as an inclusive workplace, our employees are comfortable bringing their authentic selves to work.

**Job description**:
**Purpose**

Energy policy is something that touches on every aspect of our lives - at home, at work and at play. Energy fuels our society and our economy. That’s why our policy work is so important, and so rewarding. It protects consumers. It enables businesses. It influences the entire energy industry. And it helps to bring about the seismic societal and infrastructure changes that will be the foundations for a Net Zero future.

**Infrastructure Group**

The infrastructure group is at the forefront of this drive to deliver Net Zero. It is responsible for:

- designing the regulatory regimes for the next round of electricity and gas network price controls (RIIO3 and ED3), as well as operating the current RIIO2 and ED2 regimes.
- designing new regulatory regimes for major projects including electricity interconnectors, offshore transmission, large electricity and gas network upgrades.
- the development and implementation of new regulatory regimes in low carbon technologies including nuclear power, hydrogen transport and carbon capture and storage.
- delivering the change needed to energy systems, wholesale markets and governance arrangements, including establishing the future system operator(s), network connections, charging and digitization.
- delivering strategic system planning to help ensure future gas and electricity networks develop to meet net zero targets.
- our in-house engineering capability to provide expert technical advice to policy teams.
- cyber security of the gas and electricity sectors to ensure resilient companies and networks and ongoing security of supply.

You will have the opportunity to work at the cutting edge of regulatory policy design and delivery, as part of collaborative and dynamic teams with industry leading experts. It is challeng
