Finance Business Partner – Revenue & Regulation, National Grid
National Grid keeps people connected and society moving—for more than just power distribution. The company fosters an empowering, impactful environment for employees driving the UK’s Net Zero transition.
Your regulatory strategy as a Finance Business Partner will be critical in ensuring strong oversight of this pivotal shift. You’ll lead financial submissions to Ofgem, working across teams to shape future revenue frameworks while aligning with business plans.
This hybrid role (Warwick office, 2 days in situ) offers real insight into balancing commercial imperatives (value creation, return generation) alongside consumer energy bill impact—all in an evolving regulatory landscape. Build expertise as a trusted advisor through hands-on engagement with regulatory finance.
What You’ll Do
- Lead the annual revenue forecast submission to Ofgem using the Price Control Financial Model, optimising returns while ensuring compliance and managing financial risk alongside Finance and broader stakeholders.
- Partner with Group Financial Control to reconcile Ofgem revenue positions with Underlying Revenue, identifying key assumptions and sensitivities.
- Project manage the Regulatory Financial Performance Reporting (RFPR) process, coordinating cross-functional stakeholders for optimal performance outcomes.
- Engage with Ofgem on financial elements of price controls, supporting consultation responses.
- Act as the Regulatory Finance Centre of Excellence, delivering clear, actionable advice for both financial and non-specialist teams.
- Embed knowledge of RIIO standards and regulatory requirements to inform value-driven decisions.
- Manage and develop one direct report while fostering team performance and driving continuous improvement.
- Identify and implement efficiency improvements, including AI tool adoption.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
