**Job summary**:
Ofgem exists to ensure safe, secure and sustainable energy supply to British households. Project management and delivery is central to Ofgem's work: ensuring change is undertaken efficiently and effectively to deliver on Ofgem’s regulatory and statutory obligations. You'll be working at the interface between government policy and private sector investment, where you can make things happen.

Your work will play a part in helping us protect energy consumers and make a successful transition to a net zero future.

As a Project Planner, you could support one large programme of work or move between several projects relating to work that impacts both retail energy suppliers and consumers; schemes to advance decarbonisation; or organisational improvement activities that enable Ofgem to have an even greater impact.

Regardless of which team you join, you will work with stakeholders to ensure all aspects of the project are defined, providing clarity on key milestones to define what, when and how deliverables will be organised to ensure the outcomes of a project can be achieved, with the resources available. You will need to be comfortable challenging and testing project assumptions to ensure that plans are realistic and achievable, and you will provide expert advice on planning processes throughout the lifecycle of the project.

You’ll also engage with the wider Project Management and Delivery profession to share best practice and promote continuous improvement.

As a professions-based organisation, we are serious about offering you professional development, training, and support. You can also expect an excellent benefits package, a great working environment with hybrid working, and a shared sense of purpose.
