Job Description

I’m supporting a leading industry body in the UK utilities sector with the appointment of a Regulatory Policy Lead. This is a high profile opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of UK water regulation at a time of significant sector reform.


The successful candidate will sit at the heart of the policy debate, developing positions on some of the most important issues facing the sector, including consumer policy, corporate governance, strategic planning and the future regulatory framework.


You’ll have significant exposure to senior stakeholders across government, regulators, think tanks and industry, with the opportunity to influence policy, bring different perspectives together and shape the direction of regulation over the coming years.


This is not a traditional regulatory role. It offers the opportunity to take complex policy and regulatory issues, develop clear and evidence based positions, and have a genuine influence on how the sector evolves. Water sector experience is not essential.


The role would suit someone with around 6 to 8 years’ relevant experience who is ready to take on a broader leadership position and have real influence across UK utility regulation. If you are interested in exploring the opportunity, please get in touch for a confidential conversation:
