Job Description
The Role
A varied role with a strong analytical focus, you will be responsible for evaluating network performance and making improvement recommendations.
Collecting, collating and analysing real time information, you will report on network events, operational issues and the delivery of planned work. Utilising your analytical approach, you will identify patterns and delve deep to understand why.
Solutions-focused, you will investigate these through collaborating with relevant subject matter experts and senior leaders from across the business to discover practical operational improvement opportunities. Working alongside others within the Operational Performance and Safety Team, you will support the implementation of learnings through a continuous improvement lens.
About You
An inquisitive individual, you will bring a strong analytical and problem-solving skillset. With sound knowledge of risk management and incident investigation, you will bring a pragmatic approach with the ability to turn complex data sets into practical recommendations.
Degree qualified in engineering, science, or mathematics, you will have experience in the electrical industry or broader infrastructure sector, ideally with exposure to electricity network operations. Experience with ICAM, RCA or other similar techniques would be desirable but is not essential.
The Opportunity
An analytical role with influence, this is a unique opportunity to work with both data and people. You'll get to identify not only problems but also be part of the solution, seeing your work resulting in tangible actions.
Supported by subject matter experts, this is perfect for someone looking to take their skills further and join the electricity sector or someone already in electricity wanting to specialise within network operations.
