Job Description
We are working exclusively with Scottish Renewables, the representative body for Scotland's renewable energy industry.
This Grid Policy Manager position is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys deep, technical policy work to support and influence policy and regulation affecting the development of the UK electricity grid.
In this role you will analyse grid connections, planning documents and consultations, and translate complexity into clear, compelling policy outputs. You will work closely with technical specialists across our membership and support key workstreams on grid development, connections, and system planning.
This position is policy-writing and analysis focused, rather than outward-facing or events-led, and sits at the technical end of the policy spectrum.
Key Responsibilities
1. Monitor and analyse grid policy, regulation within the context of Scotland's renewable energy market, producing clear, concise policy briefs and responses.
2. Develop robust policy positions in collaboration with technical experts across member organisations.
3. Support grid-related workstreams including the Strategic Spatial Energy Plan and connection offer tracking.
4. Contribute to Scottish Renewables' grid-focused events, including the Grid Networks Conference.
5. Produce accessible summaries of technical material for internal and external audiences.
