Protecting Northern Ireland’s energy and water consumers, today and tomorrow is what we do.
This is an exciting time to join us. We are expanding as an organisation to fully support Northern Ireland in meeting the challenges of climate change, the continued cost-of-living crisis and ensuring the continuity of energy and water supplies.
Electricity, gas and water are essential services that support all homes and businesses in Northern Ireland. As an economic regulator, it is our role to enable, incentivise and hold energy and water companies to account for providing the very best levels of service and price for consumers, now and in the future.

Through this, you will support the Communications Team in the implementation of our communications and stakeholder engagement strategy.
This role is ideally suited to someone with experience working within a busy and professional communications environment. You will have experience in assisting with the development and delivery of high-quality communications services, across a range of channels and mediums, to a wide range of internal and external stakeholders.
