Regulatory Reporting Lead

As one of the fastest-growing and highest-rated commercial energy suppliers in the UK, United Gas and Power (“UGP”) is seeking a Regulatory Reporting Lead to join its Regulation and Compliance team. This is a newly strengthened role at the centre of UGP's regulatory assurance framework, with responsibility for coordinating, assuring and delivering a varied portfolio of recurring, annual, ad hoc and emerging regulatory submissions.

Role Overview

Reporting to the Head of Regulation and Compliance, the successful candidate will own the end-to-end reporting process: planning each return, agreeing data ownership, coordinating contributors and approvers, obtaining and populating data, performing assurance checks, securing sign-off, submitting through the relevant channel and managing any subsequent questions, corrections or resubmissions.

The role is the single point of coordination for regulatory reporting across UGP. It does not mean personally creating every source dataset; designated business and system owners remain responsible for their underlying information. The Regulatory Reporting Lead will make sure those inputs are clearly defined, traceable, reconciled, challenged, evidenced and brought together into one accurate and controlled submission.

Responsibilities

• Coordinate, assure and deliver UGP’s regulatory reporting obligations, working closely with colleagues across the business to ensure accurate, timely and well-controlled submissions.
• Own and maintain the regulatory reporting calendar, reporting catalogue, forward plan and ownership matrix for recurring, annual, ad hoc and emerging obligations.
• Coordinate each reporting cycle from planning through to submission, ensuring clear deadlines, contributors, reviewers, approvers and escalation routes are in place.
• Gather, consolidate and challenge data from business and system owners, ensuring inputs are complete, accurate, reconciled, evidenced and suitable for submission.
• Interpret regulatory instructions, licence requirements and reporting guidance, translating them into clear methodologies, validation rules and practical requirements for colleagues.
• Maintain robust audit trails, evidence packs, version control, approvals and post-submission records for every material return.
• Work with IT, data owners and operational teams to improve data extraction, automation, reporting controls and data quality across key reporting processes.
• Identify reporting risks, data-quality issues, unusual movements, omissions or inconsistencies, and agree corrective action with relevant stakeholders.
• Prepare concise assurance summaries, dashboards and status updates for the Head of Regulation and Compliance, senior management and Board approvers where required.
• Act as a central coordination point for regulatory reporting queries, corrections, resubmissions, RFIs and follow-up requests from Ofgem and other industry bodies.
• Support continuous improvement by documenting processes, embedding lessons learned, reducing manual handling and strengthening business continuity arrangements.
