Notice Title

Role 4 - Senior Associate Policy Support for PR 19 - Focused on Common PCs and ODIs

Notice Description

This role is intended to provide principal-level support within the PR19 Outcomes workstream - for more information on our approach to Outcomes for PR19, please see the PR19 final methodology and the results of the initial assessment of plans, including the technical appendix on outcomes. Whilst we currently expect this role to focus on our review of evidence provided in representations to our draft determinations regarding common PCs and ODIs, due to the nature of the price review and Ofwat's need to be responsive and flexible in reaction to the exact content of representations received, there is the potential for this role to focus on another aspect of outcomes 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. Additional information: For Further Information,please contact procurement@ofwat.gov.uk
