The Project

We are creating a brand-new technology, in partnership with Scottish Power, which recognises network assets and customer devices in a completely new way via the use of Artificial Intelligence Recognition.

iDentify is a first in the UK energy industry to combine smart phone camera and AI technology. Users simply have to point their smart phone camera at the network asset, where the intelligence of the app will then recognise the asset type, use the phone’s own geo-location to determine the asset location, and with just a tap on the screen, data is returned to the Distribution Network Operator (DNO).

We are seeking a highly motivated professional with strong experience in Esri-based projects to lead and support initiatives in the Utilities sector.

• Oversee the modelling and management of distribution networks, ensuring technical accuracy and efficiency.
• Maintain strong relationships with stakeholders and clients, driving innovation and continuous improvement.

• Experience in Esri-based projects.
• Project Management and Business Development background.
• Experience in the Utilities sector, Agile methodologies, and Utility Network implementation.
• Proven track record in business development and project coordination.
