Together we're building a greener tomorrow
Connecting every home and business to a single, secure smart meter network is a huge undertaking. So you can imagine the scale – and variety – and opportunities for the people who'll help us do it.
The role
London or Manchester (Hybrid working model, 8 days a month office based)
Competitive Salary plus performance related bonus
DCC is at a pivotal point in its evolution. As our initial licence approaches its expiry in September 2025, Ofgem has indicated an extension of 12–36 months to review the DCC’s design and objectives, run a procurement process for a Successor Licensee, and facilitate a potential transition away from current shareholder Capita.
To support this next chapter, the People Team is seeking a Data Analyst on a fixed-term basis. This is a new role that will play a vital part in supporting the People Team’s data needs—especially in relation to licence renewal and organisational planning.
