If so, read on to see how you could lead Asset Management, Digital and Regulation Consultants at PA to evolve the Energy Sector beyond ‘good practice’ to outperform in a tough and uncertain energy landscape
Become part of a talented team doing impactful work
The energy sector is changing quickly, and we need leaders who can delivery ingenious solutions that will help clients cope with these changes and create/implement investment 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 lead teams delivering for our current client base and to develop new opportunities as part of our ambitious growth strategy.
We are looking for experienced consultants with a proven track record delivering in regulated utilities who can lead in multi-skilled teams with experience of working with UK energy infrastructure. The ideal candidate would have real-world experience of energy networks and preferably be able to show an understanding of energy price controls and the RIIO framework, and how the management of the physical assets supports customer, regulator and sector objectives.
We are looking to hire and develop leaders to deliver and grow sustainable business. We need people who can work independently, lead teams, and are driven self-starters who will impress our clients at this exciting time in the energy transition.
What we’re looking for
As a part of the team, you will assist in creating and pursuing business opportunities for new and existing clients through your own and PA’s wide network of clients. We excel at bridging the gap between regulatory, engineering, digital and customer languages so you will add new insights to our diverse mix.
We work very closely with all our clients, build strong interpersonal relationships, and pride ourselves on our ability to ‘walk the talk,’. Therefore, we are particularly interested in those who have practical ‘hands on’ experience with energy infrastructure assets and interest of:
Energy infrastructure planning (transmission and/or distribution) in a rapidly evolving landscape
The operation of energy networks in delivering consumer, regulator and shareholder priorities
The production of asset strategies, policies, plans and standards. Plus, an understanding of how these influence/impact business outcomes
At PA we believe that a brilliant asset manager is someone who is curious, enjoys exploring new ideas, and seeks to evolve asset management thinking and problem definition. We are looking to recruit and support curious asset management experts who can analyse complex problems and lead teams to deliver class-leading solutions. To further enhance our projects pipeline we are looking for people to generate growth; business development is the key enabler for this, so previous experience of winning new work and developing opportunities is highly beneficial.
While successful candidates will have a good technical understanding of their field, deep specialism is not the only facet of PA consultants; we also want ingenious people who can turn highly technical detail into simple concepts and communicate this clearly to anyone from boardroom to factory floor. Our consultants should be able to adapt their style to work effectively with clients and inspire confidence. We’re looking for someone with these attributes:
Self-motivation and ability to manage their own workload effectively
Leadership skills to build project teams and deliver multi-disciplinary projects
Creative and open minded, enjoying learning and trying new ways of doing things
Strong communication, presentation creation, delivery and document writing skills
