The CCSA is seeking a highly motivated Head of UK Policy to lead the policy and regulation activities of the Association at this very exciting time in the development of the carbon capture and storage and hydrogen industries. In the UK, CCUS enjoys strong political support, with government initiatives driving both net zero goals and economic growth in industrial regions. In 2024, the government committed £21.7bn over 25 years to develop the first CCUS projects by 2030. The first major projects in the East Coast Cluster (Teesside) and Hynet (North-West England and Wales) are now under construction, with more clusters and projects in the pipeline. The Association works closely with government to ensure these projects progress and to establish a clear plan for a self-sustaining UK CCUS industry and an EU-wide CO market by the 2030s. The CCUS industry is global and many of our members are actively developing projects in the power, industrial, hydrogen, fuels and carbon removals sectors all around the world, yet still see the UK as having one of the most conducive environments for successful CCUS projects and clusters. Who are we? The CCSA is a trade association representing over 120 organisations accelerating the commercial deployment CCUS through advocacy and collaboration. Our ambition is to see CCUS developed and deployed at the pace and scale necessary to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 and deliver sustainable growth across regions and nations. We represent a wide variety of organisations with an interest in the development and deployment of CCUS across many applications to decarbonise heavy industries, power and hydrogen production, and remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere. The CCSA team works across two offices, with staff based in London and Brussels. The role You will report to the UK Director and lead the UK Policy Team, supporting the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) in advancing the work of the association to accelerate the deployment of CCUS on behalf of the CCSA Board and its members. You will be responsible for developing and delivering the UK policy work programme, aligned with the association's overall UK strategy, and shaping the policy and regulatory frameworks required to enable the deployment of CCUS, hydrogen and related low-carbon solutions. This includes overseeing policy analysis and the development of CCSA consultation responses, position papers, briefing notes and other policy outputs that articulate the priorities of the sector. You will play a central role in convening industry and policymakers through the CCSA's Regulation and Policy Forum and associated working groups, ensuring the association continues to provide an established and trusted platform for dialogue between industry and government. You will also be an ambassador for the CCSA and CCUS industry, speaking at industry conferences, and representing the industry on Government working groups and taskforces. You will lead engagement with government and regulators, managing relationships with senior policymakers and stakeholders relevant to the implementation of CCUS and related policy areas - this includes market design, standards, supply chains and skills - ensuring the CCSA remains a trusted and influential voice in the development of UK policy. Working closely with colleagues across the association, you will support engagement with Parliament and other stakeholders, contribute to the association's external profile, and ensure strong internal alignment across the CCSA. This includes working closely with the External Affairs team on lines to take and messaging. As well as working collaboratively with the CCSA EU office in Brussels, using your UK policy expertise to help inform EU work streams to help align CCUS policies in both markets on issues such as standards and regulation.

The Association works closely with government to ensure these projects progress and to establish a clear plan for a self-sustaining UK CCUS industry and an EU-wide CO market by the 2030s. The CCUS industry is global and many of our members are actively developing projects in the power, industrial, hydrogen, fuels and carbon removals sectors all around the world, yet still see the UK as having one of the most conducive environments for successful CCUS projects and clusters.
