We are Smart DCC
Together we're building a greener tomorrow

Connecting every home and business to a single, secure smart meter network is a huge undertaking. So you can imagine the scale - and variety - and opportunities for the people who'll help us do it.

The role

Senior Regulation Lead - Market to Retire

Manchester, London, Nottingham

Competitive Salary plus benefits

**Background**:
The Data and Communications Company (DCC) is delivering a once-in-a-generation programme to build a smart metering network for Great Britain. Perhaps the most ambitious of its kind in the world, the programme will allow energy suppliers to roll out millions of smart electricity and gas meters to homes and small non-domestic properties. Funded by the energy industry, the network will connect smart meters to the business systems of energy suppliers, network operators and other authorised service users.

The smart metering network will help Great Britain become a global leader in smart energy and the development of smart grids. DCC (a licensed Capita company) is the programme and service integrator working on behalf of the energy industry to establish and operate the data and communications infrastructure that will enable all UK homes to have a smart meter. Once complete DCC will operate in 30m homes with 53m connections running the UK national smart meter infrastructure.

**DCC Vision**:
The DCC has developed and launched a digital foundation for the GB energy industry, providing the infrastructure that will digitise domestic energy consumption and improve costs behaviours, initially changing behaviours to reduce energy demand and cost to the consumer.

DCC manages any changes to existing services and the implementation of new services provided to our customers through our lifecycle management approach. This provides an ongoing process to ensure that services are managed proactively and efficiently through the course of their lifecycle, with clear accountability at each stage.

**The three stages are**:
1. Concept to Contract (C2C) - Planning of service development and delivery, creation of a robust business case for the service, and final contract.

2. Contract to Market (C2M) - Management and assurance of service development and readiness to go live in the market.

3. Market to Retire (M2R) - The running of products / services through to the end of their life, and also incorporates in-life change.

**The Regulation Directorate**:
Smart DCC operates in a complex regulatory framework. This includes the Smart DCC licence supported by the Smart Energy Code (SEC) and the Retail Energy Code (REC) covering switching. As DCC looks to meet its licence obligation to reuse and innovate on the platform, the organisation is increasingly affected by competition law and GDPR constraints.

The Regulatory Directorate plays a vital role in enabling DCC to navigate, comply with and benefit from the smart metering regulatory framework. This includes analysing regulatory requirements, industry codes and standards, and translating them into actionable advice for the organisation.

**There are four sub-teams in the Directorate**:
(1) Regulatory Support - Accountable for the detailed day-to-day regulatory advice into the business

(2) Regulatory Compliance - Accountable for regulatory compliance focusing on strategic cross-cutting DCC issues.

(3) Regulatory Engagement - Accountable for relationship with our regulators enabling DCC to maintain a constructive dialogue and deliver on its mandate.

(4) Economic incentives - Accountable for leading incentive design and regular performance forecasting and reporting.

**Role**:
Within the Regulatory Support team, DCC is seeking a Senior Regulation Lead with a focus on providing advice into the Market to Retire phase of DCC’s delivery lifecycle. This role is required to perform the following key functions:
Day-to-day regulatory support, guidance and interpretation in the Market to Retire phase: Provide expert guidance and interpretation of the regulatory framework into the performance, management, change control for DCC services during their operational lifetime and retirement.

**SEC and REC in-life change**: Owning in-life SEC and REC change process. Supporting all areas of the business as they interface with relevant change panels and committees and ensuring compliance with DCC’s obligations in relation to SEC and REC change releases.

**Strong communication and stakeholder engagement**: Accountability for proactive effective engagement in formal stakeholder meetings. This includes representing DCC (and supporting DCC SME attendees) at REC and SEC operational and change forums, including SEC Change Sub-Committee, SEC Change Board and REC Performance Assurance Board.

**Strong project management**: Managing regulatory input across a portfolio of operational activities, including proactively identifying resource needs, priorities and any risks and issues. This also includes ensuring smooth trans
