Opportunity
In this role, you'll lead the development of customer decarbonisation and load forecasts, guiding how we plan, invest in, and prepare the electricity network for the transition to net zero.

You'll work closely with regional teams to incorporate local intelligence and share forecasting insights with external stakeholders, ensuring the approach remains firmly rooted in the needs of the region. A key objective will be to develop tailored information to support engineering colleagues, ensuring the network is ready for the growing role of electricity in decarbonisation across the Northeast, Yorkshire, and North Lincolnshire.
If you're passionate about using data and advanced modelling to drive smarter, greener grid investment, this is your chance to make a real impact.

Enrolment into a double-matched pension scheme
25 days holiday plus bank holidays (rising with service)

Ensure accurate reporting of forecasts with strong attention to detail and effective application of data.
Act as a subject matter expert, offering technical direction to engineers delivering regulatory reports and supporting DSO commitments.
