Working closely with the Senior Regulatory Compliance Manager, you'll act as a strategic partner to senior leaders - supporting informed decision-making, ensuring compliance with regulatory expectations, and representing the business in key stakeholder discussions.

You'll engage directly with heads of business areas and their leadership teams, translating complex regulatory requirements into practical, commercial solutions. Your understanding of the energy industry landscape and the Ofgem regulatory framework will help shape our position and influence within the sector. The role is initially a three-month contract with strong potential to be extended. The role is a full time, 40 hours per week and a hybrid opportunity. Whilst the site location is Nottingham, you will not be expected to be in the office frequently.

Key Responsibilities

• Acting as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, building strong, collaborative relationships across departments to drive compliant and customer-focused outcomes.
• Leading presentations and briefings for business heads and their teams - clearly articulating regulatory developments, compliance expectations, and key lessons from case experience.
• Interpreting and communicating regulatory requirements (including Ofgem licence conditions, GDPR, Ofcom, and ASA codes) in a clear, accessible, and commercially relevant way.
• Supporting the preparation of regulatory submissions, consultation responses, and policy papers that reflect their business position and values.
• Proactively engaging with external stakeholders such as Ofgem, DESNZ, Energy UK, and Citizens Advice, maintaining open and constructive dialogue.
• Partnering with operational leaders to identify compliance risks and opportunities, helping design practical solutions that align with business objectives.
• Monitoring regulatory change and assessing its potential impact - ensuring our business remains agile and prepared.
• Promoting a culture of compliance and ethical behaviour through education, awareness, and collaborative initiatives.
• Providing clear, structured updates and reports to senior management and governance forums.

Knowledge and Skills

• A confident and engaging communicator, capable of presenting complex regulatory issues to senior audiences with clarity and influence.
• Strong relationship management skills, with experience collaborating across multiple business areas and seniority levels.
• A solid understanding of retail energy regulation, Ofgem frameworks, and the wider energy policy landscape.
• Strategic thinking with a practical mindset - able to balance compliance obligations with commercial objectives.
• Excellent written skills, with experience preparing briefings, reports, or consultation responses.
• Highly organised, adaptable, and able to prioritise effectively in a fast-moving environment.
• Curious, proactive, and passionate about delivering positive outcomes for customers and the energy sector.
• Experience in a regulatory, compliance, or policy-focused role within the energy industry or a similarly regulated sector.
• Familiarity with key industry stakeholders (e.g. Ofgem, DESNZ, Energy UK, Citizens Advice).
• Exposure to compliance topics such as consumer protection, environmental obligations, or advertising standards.
• Confidence delivering presentations or leading discussions with senior stakeholders.
• A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for continuous learning and improvement.
