Sustainability and Social Reporting Specialist

Ofwat

We regulate the water sector in England and Wales, https://www.ofwat.gov.uk/jobs/make-a-splash/


Requirements of the role

We are seeking a Sustainability and Social Reporting Specialist to join our Environment team at Senior Associate level. This role will play an important and valuable contribution in enabling us to deliver on our goals and regulatory commitments. You will support the development of Ofwat’s approach to sustainability and social value reporting.

You will help develop frameworks, advice, outputs and evidence that improve how Ofwat articulates and demonstrates the value of regulatory decisions and funded activity. This may include work on environmental and social outcomes, public value, regulatory transparency, and the links between funding, delivery and impact. A key part of the role will be helping ensure that this reporting is informed by stewardship principles, for example, by better reflecting long-term outcomes, transparent trade-offs, interdependencies, and a clearer line of sight between regulatory action and enduring public benefit.

This role is suited to someone with strong analytical and policy skills with experience in sustainability, social and/or public value reporting. As a Senior Associate, you will operate with substantial autonomy and be expected to plan and progress your work independently, while working under the guidance of senior colleagues.
