About the role

As the Principal Regulatory Adviser, you’ll play a key role in the vital work we do. Using critical analysis to shape, influence and develop new regulatory roles, powers and supporting legislation, you’ll provide analytical support and advice to colleagues.

You’ll manage our approach to new enforcement roles, developing and maintaining effective working relationships with colleagues and organisations across government and beyond. You’ll be an effective line manager, working to develop and improve not only our range of regulatory tools, powers and strategy, but also the people around you.

You’ll have the demonstratable ability to critically assess regulatory powers, interpret relevant legislation and develop policy.

On a personal level, you’ll have excellent analytical, problem solving and communication skills, with the ability to interpret and explain complex issues clearly. You’ll work collaboratively with the widest range of colleagues and organisations, prioritising the continuous improvement of the service. This is a fantastic opportunity to get involved in the vital work we do, and to supercharge your career in the process.
