Portlaoise, Laois, Ireland EirGrid plc Full time
We are the people behind Ireland's electricity grid. We operate the power system with world leading levels of variable asynchronous renewable generation, ensuring that everyone has power when they need it. But that's not all, we are now transforming the power system for future generations.

And that's just the beginning of our story. We have a critical purpose. That purpose is to transform the power system to enable our society to reduce our carbon emissions and meet our climate change and net zero ambitions.

Be part of the transformation

The Team

The Group Regulation Team is responsible for developing and implementing a strategic approach to regulatory matters which align with the ambitions of the Group, and has a pivotal role to play in supporting the delivery of EirGrid Groups' Corporate Strategy in Ireland and in the evolving European energy landscape, including the energy transition, offshore development and European matters including future interconnection. This includes management and development of regulatory relationships, development of regulatory arrangements, revenue frameworks and price controls, formulation of Group Regulation Policy, management of the Customer Charging process for connecting parties in Ireland, and oversight of regulatory compliance and all relevant licensing, regulatory authorisations and consents.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Senior Regulatory Advisor to join the Group Regulation team, to contribute to and influence the strategic direction of the company's regulatory and policy engagement as we mobilise to deliver on our ambitious strategy, across our expanding role and evolving functions. You will provide strategic advice across the organisation in relation to strategic regulatory policy issues and will act as a key point of expertise both internally and externally on relevant matters.

The role will see you undertake a range of expert level analysis and will work within a multi-disciplinary team in Group Regulation, which deals with a range of commercial and technical projects in a rapidly changing business and regulatory environment. The role holder will ensure that key company regulatory objectives work in support of EirGrid Group's Corporate Strategy.

This role will be a key interface with the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) in Ireland and will support the management of programmes with CRU, with particular focus on key strategic and transformational projects. While not directly engaged in Northern Ireland regulatory engagement the role holder will be required to ensure collaboration with the Northern Ireland regulatory team in SONI, whilst accommodating jurisdictional differences. The role holder will also support the determination and negotiation of regulatory approvals to enable EirGrid, EirGrid Interconnector DAC (EIDAC), SEMO and SEMOpx to meet their business obligations.
