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

As the Head of Policy at Ofgem, you will be a pivotal figure in leading a multi-disciplinary team within the Policy department. 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. Additionally, you will provide inclusive team leadership, supporting and guiding team members towards successful outcomes while embodying Ofgem's core values. This role sits within the Delivery and Schemes directorate and will be responsible for overseeing the ongoing development and delivery of high-profile policy interventions alongside the government and on the front line for Net Zero.

We are looking for an individual who not only has significant experience in leading the policy development process, managing input from analytical, technical, and legal experts, and presenting well-rounded policy recommendations addressing risks, trade-offs, and economic considerations, but also someone who is genuinely interested in the energy sector and passionate about ensuring positive outcomes for both current and future consumers.

Your proven leadership 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, fuelling innovation, 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 offers incredibly flexible working practices, enabling you to manage your work/life balance successfully. There is also a great culture, with an approachable and friendly senior leadership team who are there to support you in your role.

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.

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.
