Head of Wholesale Market Intelligence and Data

Requirements of the role

Ofgem is Great Britain’s independent energy regulator. We’re at the forefront of change across the energy sector, driving toward Net Zero whilst protecting energy consumers, especially vulnerable people.

We’re offering a permanent opportunity to lead the Wholesale Market Intelligence and Data team within our Market Oversight and Enforcement directorate. Sitting at the centre of how we understand market developments, this role will shape the insight that informs major regulatory, operational and policy decisions across the organisation.

In this highly visible leadership role, you’ll guide how wholesale market developments are interpreted and communicated, ensuring decision-makers have the insight they need to respond to emerging risks, evolving market dynamics and wider system challenges.

You’ll work closely with senior colleagues and key partners, including government departments, the National Energy System Operator, the Financial Conduct Authority and international regulatory counterparts, helping ensure a shared understanding of wholesale market developments exists at moments that matter most.

With strong analytical expertise and experience, both quantitative and qualitative, you’ll have a background of working with complex data and the ability to translate insight into clear advice for senior audiences. Alongside your analytical capability, you’ll be an experienced leader able to motivate teams, build strong partnerships and deliver results in fast-moving and high-profile environments.

In return, you’ll join a collaborative leadership community working on some of the most complex and consequential challenges facing the sector. You’ll have the opportunity to shape how wholesale markets are understood and overseen, while developing your leadership and strategic influence within a respected public authority.

We have a critical purpose to ensure markets function effectively and in the interests of consumers. Join us and help strengthen the intelligence and insight that underpins confidence in wholesale energy markets.
