You’ll oversee everything from concept to completion, delivering critical business change aligned with our proven Project Life Cycle and Delivery Framework.

HOW WE WORK

You'll join a caring culture that collaborates to achieve, grow, and develop. Our employee engagement scores are among the highest globally in energy and utilities. That’s why, we value in-person moments to keep our culture alive but also understand the flexibility working from home can bring. So, you'll usually find us in the office, but working from home is supported, when you need it.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring solid experience in project or change management, with a track record of delivering successful outcomes. Qualifications like Prince2, Agile, MSP or formal Change Management training are highly desirable and will help you hit the ground running.

We’re after someone who’s proactive, organised, and confident in both written and verbal communication. You’ll be comfortable managing multiple priorities and influencing stakeholders at all levels.

A full UK driving licence is essential for this role.

The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too.

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you?
