Stakeholder Relationship Executive

Overview

Energy UK is the trade association for the energy industry, representing companies investing billions of pounds to secure our country's current and future energy needs. From growing start-ups to major electricity generators, grid and infrastructure developers and energy suppliers, our members are driving change across power, heat, transport, flexibility, homes and businesses. We provide a collective voice for the sector working with governments, regulators, charities and other organisations to provide crucial insight that shapes policy, offers solutions and promotes best practice.

We champion initiatives such as our Vulnerability Commitment, which pushes suppliers to go beyond regulation to support customers with additional needs, and TIDE, the industry's drive for greater inclusion and diversity. Through our Young Energy Professionals Forum, we support the development of future leaders. We really value our organisational culture at Energy UK. We have high quality support and development opportunities for our employees, and we are proud to have been awarded a Platinum accreditation with Investors in People.

We know that the wellbeing of employees is key to our success and this is reflected in our progressive policies around wellbeing, flexible working and mental health.

We are looking for someone who shares our passion for the energy sector and the UK's transition to Net Zero. We see the decarbonisation of our economy as one of the issues of our time, and believe that working in partnership across the sector is key to its delivery. The person in this role is crucial to helping us make that happen - helping us deepen our understanding of our members and stakeholders across the sector, to strengthen our relationships, and to help find opportunities whereby working together we can achieve more.

This role gives a great platform that would be suitable for someone in the early years of their career to be right at the heart of what's happening in the sector early on. This role will look across the full breadth of our membership, working to deliver impactful initiatives, through strong relationships both with our member companies and trusted partners.

Our members include some of the biggest companies in energy, as well as fast-growing start-ups, offering opportunities to raise your profile across the sector. The role holders will have strong relationship-building skills and enjoy finding ways to strengthen our partnerships with Members, sponsors and stakeholders across the breadth of the sector. They will have a thirst for knowledge and relish the challenge of engaging with a renewable energy provider one day and a tech disruptor the next.

They will have an interest in commercial operations, shaping revenue opportunities and fostering new collaborative partnerships. This role will also have the unique opportunity to lead our work on the Young Energy Professionals Forum, an established network of inspiring professionals with less than a decade of experience in the energy sector. We are looking for someone who is personable, organised, goal-oriented and who will enjoy the challenge of being part of a high-performing team within Energy UK that is transforming our approach to stakeholder engagement.
