About the Role
Nottingham City Council’s Enviroenergy service is seeking a Regulatory Compliance Specialist to play a pivotal role in ensuring our district heating operations meet current and emerging regulatory requirements.
This is a key specialist position with responsibility for interpreting complex heat network legislation and translating it into practical, workable arrangements across the organisation. You will be the central point of expertise on heat network regulation, including Ofgem’s consumer protection framework and the forthcoming Heat Network Technical Assurance Standards (HNTAS).
Working closely with senior leaders, technical teams and operational colleagues, you will provide clear guidance on regulatory obligations, develop and maintain internal policies, and lead compliance monitoring and audit activity. You will also design and deliver training to ensure teams understand their responsibilities and can confidently operate within a regulated environment.
The role involves regular engagement with external bodies such as Ofgem and industry assurance schemes, helping Enviroenergy remain informed, compliant and proactive as regulation continues to evolve. You will support the organisation in responding to regulatory change, addressing compliance issues where they arise, and embedding continuous improvement across services.
This is an opportunity to influence how a large local authority heat network operates in a newly regulated landscape, helping to protect customers, support decarbonisation objectives and ensure high standards of service delivery.
About You
The ideal candidate will have:
- Experience in regulation or compliance
- Experience working with rules, policies or regulations, preferably in energy, utilities, infrastructure or the public sector.
- Knowledge of heat networks or energy regulation
- A good understanding of UK energy or heat network regulations, including consumer protection and assurance standards.
- Ability to explain complex information clearly
- The ability to understand detailed regulations and explain them in simple, practical terms for others to use.
- Strong communication skills
- Confidence communicating with colleagues, managers and external organisations, both in writing and in person.
- Experience writing policies and supporting compliance
- Experience creating guidance, policies or procedures, and helping monitor or improve compliance.
- Well organised and proactive
- Able to manage their own workload, pay attention to detail, and take initiative to improve how things are done.
- This post is covered by the statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) (English Language Requirement for public sector workers) and therefore the ability to speak fluent English, is an essential requirement for the role.
