    Description

    About the role

    Great Britain's electricity system is undergoing an ambitious, exciting and vital transformation. Together with industry, we are creating a cleaner, greener system, one that protects the planet and serves generations to come.

    The Wholesale Market Strategy Manager will own this workstream in the ESO REMA Programme, ensuring that we have the relevant market options analysis available to contribute to the government programme effectively. You will build and manage an effective team and will regularly represent ESO on the REMA OWL (Operational, Wholesale and Location) Working Group sharing your analysis and influencing and engaging stakeholders from DESNZ and Ofgem, and across industry.

    You will work closely with colleagues from DESNZ and Ofgem and deliver bespoke analysis to determine how changes to the wholesale market could be best designed and implemented, which could, if zonal pricing is decided upon, include the optimal number of zones, the process for redrawing zones periodically, the impact of zonal pricing on market participants and consumers and how any adverse impacts can be best mitigated.

    Any introduction of locational wholesale signals will inevitably result in winners and losers, so being able to make well-evidenced and unbiased arguments is of paramount importance. Just as important will be influencing your peers and executive members in NESO – locational pricing reforms will impact every aspect of the organisation, so internal stakeholders will need to be fully bought into your vision.

    This role can be based from Warwick, Wokingham or Glasgow and we continue to offer hybrid working from office and home. We are open to full time and part time applicants, as well as flexible working arrangements.

    About us

    At National Grid ESO, our mission is to meet the challenges of the future and deliver cleaner, affordable electricity. We constantly strive to do this better by using technology and innovation to transform the way we work.

    Becoming the National Energy System Operator

    In Summer of 2024, the ESO will transition to becoming the National Energy System Operator, or NESO for short. Previously denoted as the Future System Operator (or FSO), the new National Energy System Operator will be the independent body responsible for planning Great Britain's electricity and gas networks and operating the electricity system.

    The ESO, including all of its existing roles, will be at the heart of the new National Energy System Operator. As NESO, we will build on our existing roles, capabilities, and ways of working significantly to create an organisation the energy system and its users' need. Our new capabilities will enable us to look across vectors, including electricity, natural gas and hydrogen, and crucially consider the trade-offs between them.

    The organisation will be set up as a public corporation with its own Board of independent directors, with complete operational independence from government, the regulator and any and all commercial interest. As the ESO are today, NESO will be licenced and regulated by Ofgem through price control agreements and obligated to identify optimal solutions to system operations and planning in the most sustainable, affordable and secure way for all.

    The time to deliver is now. As part of our team, you won't just be touching the lives of almost everyone in Great Britain – you'll be shaping the way we use and consume energy for generations to come.
