We’re looking for an Economic Analyst to join our team at NESO.
If you’re passionate about applying economics to real-world energy challenges and want to help shape Great Britain’s energy transition, we’d love to hear from you.
- Economic Analyst
- National Energy System Operator (NESO)
- Locations: Warwick, CV34 6DA / Wokingham, RG41 5BN
- Full time
- Closing Date: September 7, 2026
About the Role
Great Britain is at a critical point on its path to net zero and decarbonisation of the energy system is at the heart of this journey. Now, more than ever, energy strategy and policy must go further and faster to ensure that we not only deliver against the Government’s net zero ambitions, but that this is done in a way that ensures that energy is reliable, affordable, and fair for all.
The Office of the Chief Economist (OCE) is an important and relatively new capability for NESO, critical in helping NESO to navigate the complexities of the energy transition and towards Net Zero. It does so by bringing together a whole systems view of the UK’s energy landscape and combining this with expert economic analytical capability and insight that inform the decisions, positions, advice, and recommendations that NESO makes.
As an Economic Analyst, you will be an integral part of the Office of the Chief Economist, which sits within the multidisciplinary Strategy and Policy directorate. Your role will involve supporting with economic analysis across various areas of NESO, considering economic welfare aspects, macroeconomic factors, economic trends, regulatory and market economics, and consumer behaviour influences. You will also play a key role in analysing and forecasting economic costs within the evolving energy landscape. This comprehensive approach facilitates a holistic view of the energy system and informed decision-making, providing valuable insights and analysis for an economically sound energy market transition.
This role is based in Warwick or Wokingham on a full-time basis. We continue to offer hybrid working from office and home with an expectation to be in the office at least 1 day per week. If not based at Warwick then occasional (at least 1 day per week) travel to Warwick may be required.
