Dublin, Dublin City, Ireland Electricity Supply Board Full time

The Smart Metering programme is a strategic initiative aimed at upgrading the country's electricity meter infrastructure with modern smart meters.

This will enable the development of new products and services, delivering benefits to customers, the economy, and the environment.

The ESB Networks Smart Metering Operations Centre (SMOC) plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and availability of smart metering services through monitoring, managing, and maintaining smart meters and ancillary services.

The Designated Data Owner role within SMOC's System Governance pillar is responsible for the maintenance of all data owned and processed by SMOC.

Key responsibilities include ensuring access rights are regularly reviewed, cataloguing and classifying data according to relevant policies, and engaging with the ESB Networks Data Steward and ESB Data Protection Office to ensure compliance with GDPR requirements.

Additional duties involve supporting responses to data requests, conducting audits and compliance checks, developing and maintaining documentation, identifying risks, and promoting data governance awareness across the SMOC team.

This role requires strong communication and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to understand and solve problems in a collaborative manner.

Knowledge of Electricity Meters and Metering Systems is also essential.

A related postgraduate degree or equivalent experience is required, along with expertise in data protection laws and regulations like GDPR.

Experience working in Data Management and Data Governance, self-motivation, prioritisation, strong interpersonal skills, relationship building, influencing, and stakeholder management are also desired qualifications.

A progressive hybrid working model, career development opportunities, corporate social responsibility initiatives, sports and social clubs, networking opportunities, staff wellbeing programmes, generous parental leave entitlements, and a strong values-based culture make this an attractive opportunity for the right candidate.
