About the Job

In addition, the Government has published a national Hydrogen Strategy.

While the successful candidate will initially be posted to the Energy Safety Infrastructure sector, the individual will also contribute to the wider Energy Safety Division and organisation as requirements dictate.

- Providing judgement as to whether an operator is in compliance with the Gas Safety Framework;
- Recommending regulatory enforcement action in accordance with CRU processes and managing follow up actions;

- Advising and supporting the Commission, Senior Management Team and wider organisation on relevant regulatory or technical issues, and;
- Carrying out such other functions as may be required from time to time to support the Energy Safety Division and fulfil the business objectives of the CRU.
