Job Description Become part of a talented team doing impactful work

The energy sector is changing quickly, and we need consultants who can help our clients cope with these changes and create/implement plans that balance the goals of customers, regulators, and shareholders from both a business/regulatory and technical point of view.

Our successful Energy and Utilities practice is looking for skilled experts to help support our current client base and our ambitious growth strategy.

We are looking for consultants with a background in regulated utilities who can work in multi-skilled teams with experience of working with UK energy infrastructure. The ideal candidate would preferably be able to show an understanding of energy price controls and the RIIO framework, and how the management of the physical assets support customer, regulator and sector objectives.

We are looking to hire and develop people of all levels to meet our growing project demand, and who are willing to learn and grow further in a consulting setting. At the same time, we need people who can work independently and are driven self-starters who will impress our clients at this exciting time in the energy transition.
