Description

Job Purpose:


  • As the Electricity System Operator for GB, the ESO plays a key role in helping to reach the Government's ambitious targets for Net Zero. We look ahead and plan where our energy will come from and how we will operate a cleaner and greener system in the future.
  • Over the years, we have created an organisation that provides world leading tools and expertise to identify an electricity system which delivers safe, reliable and affordable electricity for everyone. However, if the UK is to meet its net zero obligations, strategic thinking in the energy sector needs to be undertaken more holistically.
  • The Strategic Spatial Energy Plan will set out what needs to be built, where, and when. Not only will it provide an authoritative evidence base for the key clean energy projects that are needed to deliver government targets for 2035 and beyond, we will be asking for all of society to feed into the creation and development of the plan.
  • This role can be based from Warwick, 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:


As Great Britain's electricity system operator (ESO), we sit at the heart of the electricity system, using our outstanding engineering and commercial expertise to balance electricity supply and demand.

Ultimately, we keep the electricity flowing directly to where it's needed, second by second.


Becoming the Future System Operator

  • In 2021, government and Ofgem jointly consulted on proposals for an expert, impartial Future System Operator (FSO) with responsibilities across both the electricity and gas systems, to drive progress towards net zero while maintaining energy security and minimising costs for consumers. In October 2023, the Energy Act 2023 was passed, legislating for this Future System Operator to be created.
  • The ESO, including all of its existing roles, will be at the heart of the new Future System Operator. We will be taking on additional roles across vectors and sectors to create an organisation with a whole energy system mindset; enabling us to identify solutions to our energy system that are more sustainable, secure, and affordable for all.
  • The FSO will be set up as a public corporation with operational independence from government bringing parties together to support optimised decision making and action. As now, it will be licenced and regulated by Ofgem through price control agreements. It is anticipated that the new organisation will be up and running in The time to act on climate change 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.
