This is a leadership role within the strategic asset management directorate with significant responsibility for overseeing the production of forward-looking investment plans both for in-AMP delivery and future business plans including Price Review 2029 (PR29), as well as owning the continuous improvement of the governance framework for the delivery of investments.

Providing evidence and input to support the development of supporting narrative in regulatory submissions
Work with other teams in particular Regulation and Asset Delivery Planning to ensure clarity of accountabilities & responsibilities, making sure that interfaces do not cause confusion or re-work

Responsibility for continuous improvement of corporate governance of investment delivery including mandatory deliverables at stage gates, aligning processes to contractual requirements
