Role 3 - Principal Policy Support for PR Cost Assessment

This role is intended to provide principal-level support within the PR19 Cost Assessment team - for more information on our approach to assessing costs for PR19, please see the PR19 final methodology and the results of the initial assessment of plans, including the relevant technical appendices.

Whilst we currently expect this role to focus on our approach to modelling companies efficient costs, due to the nature of the price review and Ofwat's need to be responsive and flexible in reaction to the exact content of companies' business plan submissions, there is the potential for this role to focus on another aspect of cost assessment or even be allocated to another workstream within the PR19 programme (in discussion and agreement between Ofwat and the successful contractor). As a result we are looking for transferable skills that could suit multiple policy areas across the price review.

Following publication of our IAP decisions on 31 January 2019, we will move into the next phase of the price review, working towards draft determinations. You will be part of the team responsible for contributing to these draft determinations. Key roles will include analysing company submissions (including revised business plans submitted in April 2019 by companies whose plans are classified as slow-track or significant scrutiny), presenting findings to colleagues, and potentially taking a lead advising on strategically significant policy issues.
