Job Description
Emergency Planning Coordinator | North West based (hybrid) | £41,500 - £47,000 per annum + benefits
Morson are working in partnership with Electricity North West (ENWL) to recruit an Emergency Planning Coordinator to join their Emergency Planning team.
They’re champions of the North West and are proud that it’s their electricity network that connects communities and helps keep the electricity flowing every minute of every day, from when you wake up to when you fall asleep and all the hours in between.
A key part of the UK’s journey to net zero carbon is the revolution of their electricity industry to enable clean, green economic growth. As the North West’s electricity network operator, it’s their responsibility to lead the way, help the region decarbonise and pave the way for the growth of renewable energy and a sustainable energy future for all.
In December 2024, Electricity North West were proud to be named Utility of the Year by Utility Week magazine, who said they punched above their weight and used innovation to solve some of the industry’s most difficult challenges. Come and be part of the team and make a difference.
Together we have the energy to transform our communities. We are switched on. We are adaptable. We take pride.
The Role
You’ll play a key part in ensuring ENWL’s preparedness for major incidents — from storms and power outages to supporting plans for cyber security, business continuity, environmental, and data incidents. Working closely with internal and external stakeholders, you’ll help build resilience, plan and deliver training, and drive continuous improvement through learning and exercises. Although advertised in Manchester, this role can be done from any ENWL Office and also offers flexibility to work from home.
You’ll be responsible for:
Supporting ENWL’s 5-step preparedness cycle: plan, organise and equip, train, exercise, and evaluate
Administering incident response training, exercises, and refresher programmes
Delivering engagement plans to promote incident ownership across the business
Maintaining incident planning documentation and lessons learned trackers
Representing ENWL at national and local meetings, including Emergency Planning Manager Forum and Local Resilience Forums
Supporting ENWL’s Incident Management Centre during incidents, including out-of-hours participation
About You
We’re looking for someone with:
Direct experience working with the Civil Contingencies Act (2004), ideally in the capacity of a Category 1 or Category 2 responder
A strong understanding of multi-agency emergency planning, risk assessment, and resilience frameworks
Experience contributing to or leading emergency planning, business continuity, or incident response in a regulated or critical infrastructure environment
Strong communication, stakeholder management, and influencing skills
Experience working with operational field teams and an understanding of customer and stakeholder needs
Awareness of the electricity distribution business, regulatory standards, and civil contingency requirements would be a bonus
What’s on Offer
As a vital team member, and in return for your expertise, inclusive approach, and commitment, Electricity North West offers a competitive salary and the opportunity to join a passionate and welcoming team. The organisation is committed to supporting its people and is proud of its reward and benefits package, which includes:
An annual bonus scheme
Flexibility to work from any ENWL office as well as hybrid working arrangement
25 days annual leave (increasing with length of service)
Private healthcare
An employee rewards portal offering discounts on well-known brands
A market-leading contributory pension scheme
Employee assistance programme
Opportunities for professional development through its learning and development function
Location Flexibility
