As a DER Business Analyst, you will report to the Distributed Energy Resources Development Manager and work within Connections, with the flexibility to be based in our London, Crawley, or Maidstone offices. Imagine attracting a competitive salary of £41,109 and enjoying a bonus of 3%, along with the option for blended working after a six-month probationary period - three days in the office and two remotely.

Context is crucial in our energy transition journey. As Distribution Network Operators (DNOs), we are integral to this mission, with UK Power Networks committed to transforming the connections journey for customers through Connections Reform. Our relationship with the National Energy System Operator (NESO) means that we handle increased volumes of applications for generation connections to our network.

Your principal accountabilities will include organizing, managing, and delivering DER customer workshops, forums, and scrutiny panels; collating and reviewing feedback to develop best-in-class services; communicating with customers and internal stakeholders; and reviewing relevant industry information. Additionally, you will engage with stakeholders, compile information for executive updates, analyze and produce management information, keep the external website updated, and produce regular reports and management information on Connections Reform activities.

Join the DER team, a vital part of the Service Delivery Team within the Connections Directorate. As we transition to Connections Reform in Q2 2025, you will be pivotal in reviewing NESO contracts worth hundreds of millions of pounds and in managing a greater number of Connection Offers to customers.

To succeed in this role, you should possess extensive knowledge of company and industry developments, have a strong interest in the energy transition, and excel in communication at all levels. Creativity, innovation, the ability to meet deadlines, and excellent networking skills are essential.
