Job summary:


Ofgem works on behalf of energy consumers to ensure that every household and business in the UK can rely on a safe and sustainable energy supply.

We have an exciting opportunity for a Compliance Manager to join our Counter Fraud team at Ofgem.

We are seeking an ambitious and delivery focused individual who is passionate about fighting fraud, making a difference, developing capability and alignment with Gov 13 Functional Standard ultimately to prevent and reduce fraud.

The role will provide support to the Counter Fraud Lead in developing, designing, and implementing strategies and policies to deliver targeted and impactful counter fraud measures while also leading and investigating cases of suspected fraud.

This will help ensure Ofgem delivers maximum impact in supporting energy consumers and driving forward net zero ambitions to tackle climate change.


You will work with a team of counter fraud professionals to provide a high-quality counter fraud service that includes, prevention and deterrence, investigation, detection, and fraud risk management.

Fraud is a potential threat that exists both internally and externally and we take this threat seriously in all aspects of our work.

A primary objective of the team is the prevention and detection of fraud on the various government schemes we administer to ensure compliance with scheme rules and the protection of public funds inclusive of debt collection and redress actions.

We also work with external agencies to pursue further sanction actions where possible.

While our counter fraud services and initiatives are primarily counter fraud focused, we also support in the reduction of error.

Here's a blog that gives an insight into the type of work our Counter Fraud team engages in.

If you have proven experience as a counter fraud leader and this sounds like the type of work you'd like to be a part of, we'd love to hear from you.

Job description:


Purpose


The record increase and volatility in global gas prices has put the energy market under severe strain, and is putting upward pressure on customers' energy bills.

We need to shield consumers from excessive price increases and make sure suppliers are doing what they can to support their customers.

Such challenging times require bold action.

We are looking for people to meet the challenges we face head-on, and help us deliver a greener, fairer energy system.


You will be someone who:

  • Has a proven background undertaking investigation, enforcement, compliance, risk management, fraud risk assessment and proactively countering fraud.
  • Enjoys developing new skills, capabilities and expertise and being engaged across a broad range of diverse activities, including stakeholder engagement, analysis, risk management, policy development and project management.
  • Is interested in the energy sector in the broad sense, passionate about ensuring good outcomes for current and future consumers, protecting consumers, and eager to help drive Ofgem's contribution to delivering Net Zero.
  • Champions our culture of inclusion and encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices and experiences of our colleagues, fuelling our innovation and ensuring we best represent the consumers and the communities we serve.

Team Purpose and role


After the initial deployment, you will be expected to work flexibly across Ofgem as a member of the Compliance & Enforcement Profession, working on cross-Ofgem projects, and/or in teams where you have in-demand specialist skills or expertise.
