Ideal Candidate Profile
We are particularly interested in candidates who have owned digital products that improve how users access, search, and interact with complex information. Experience within energy is not required; however, candidates from regulated sectors such as financial services, legal services, government, utilities, compliance, or governance-led organisations are likely to have highly transferable skills. The successful candidate will bring accountability, strategic thinking, and product leadership to a platform that is central to making industry rules and codes easier for customers to understand, navigate, and use.
