We deliver safety, warmth, and comfort to homes and businesses. Every role, whether in the office or on the front line, plays a key part in this mission. Here's how you will contribute

We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead a major cross functional project that connects data, products, and operational processes across our utilities business. Operating in a highly regulated, asset intensive environment, you will ensure transformation initiatives support network resilience, customer service excellence, environmental obligations, and compliance with regulatory frameworks.

This role requires a strategic thinker who can navigate technical complexity, champion data driven decision-making, and embed compliant, scalable processes across the organisation-from front line operations through to our Corporate Services professional functions.

This is not a technical Project Manager role but one who can connect Data, Product and Process SMEs together to ensure that our recent investments in Products are fully realised and that the governance to maintain alignment is fully embedded.

Key Responsibilities

Leadership in a Regulated Utilities Environment

• Shape and lead the project that ensures data, products, and operational processes are aligned across the organisation.
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders on impacts, operational risk, safety, and complianceby-design.

Project Delivery & Governance

• Lead a multidisciplinary project spanning operations, IT and the wider organisation.
• Implement robust governance structures, ensuring transparency, rigorous risk management, and readiness for audit or regulatory scrutiny.
• Manage dependencies across systems, field operations, digital platforms, and external partners or contractors.

Product, Process and Technology Alignment during Modernisation

• Work with product, process and technology teams to ensure digital tools, customer products, and processes meet regulatory and operational needs.
• Embed compliance, safety, and environmental controls into all redesigned processes.
• Identify automation, standardisation, and digitisation opportunities that reduce operational risk while improving efficiency and customer outcomes.

Stakeholder & Regulatory Engagement

• Collaborate with senior stakeholders across Operations, Finance, People , IT, and other functions.
• Support evidence gathering and process assurance for regulatory submissions, audits, and inspections.
• Communicate complex operational concepts clearly to both technical and nontechnical audiences.

What you will need

• Extensive experience delivering major transformation or change projects within utilities.
• Proven experience with operational and asset data, including data governance, quality, and Realtime system integration.
• Deep knowledge of process optimisation and the operational control environment in asset intensive industries.
• Exceptional stakeholder management, able to influence senior leadership and cross functional teams.
• Experience managing complex dependencies across digital, operational, and engineering teams.
• Strategic, structured, and comfortable working in a safety critical and regulated environment.
• Strong leadership presence with the ability to challenge and inspire cross functional teams.
• Pragmatic problem solver who can balance innovation with operational reliability and regulatory constraints.
• Passionate about improving customer outcomes, network resilience, and environmental performance through better use of data, products, and process.

Desirable

• Good understanding of Salesforce and Oracle Fusion.
• Professional certifications: MSP, PRINCE2, PMP, Lean Six Sigma, Prosci.
• Understanding of utilities regulatory frameworks
