Nationwide / Primarily London | Up to £95,000 + Car Allowance + Benefits
This is a highly specialist senior leadership role for someone who understands regulation, governance and operational excellence across heat networks, metering, billing and compliance. We are supporting the appointment of a Head of Heat Network Management to lead governance, regulatory compliance, billing strategy, debt oversight and supply chain performance across a substantial portfolio of 100+ residential and mixed-use heat networks. This is not a traditional operational management role. This is a strategic leadership opportunity for someone who can shape policy, interpret legislation, protect customers and ensure a business is fully prepared for the future of heat network regulation.
The Opportunity
- Lead governance and regulatory compliance across a national heat network portfolio
- Interpret evolving legislation and translate it into clear internal frameworks
- Act as senior interface with Ofgem and relevant regulatory bodies
- Oversee metering, billing, reconciliation and data governance strategy
- Shape compliant debt management frameworks balancing financial performance with customer protection
- Build governance and reporting structures for senior leadership and Board oversight
- Monitor maintenance supply chain performance, ensuring technical and commercial standards
- Lead and develop a specialist team focused on accountability, transparency and continuous improvement
What We Are Looking For
- Strong understanding of heat network regulation and energy compliance frameworks
- Significant experience within heat networks, utilities, metering or billing in a regulated environment
- Experience developing or overseeing metering and billing strategy
- Strong understanding of governance, reconciliation, data integrity and debt management
- Experience engaging with Ofgem or similar regulatory bodies
- Senior leadership and team management capability
- Strong commercial, analytical and strategic thinking skills
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a rare opportunity to lead at the centre of:
- A senior heat network professional
- A utilities or compliance leader
- A metering and billing governance specialist
- Someone looking to influence standards nationally
The Bigger Picture
As regulation tightens and scrutiny across heat networks increases, this role becomes central to ensuring compliance, operational excellence and long-term strategic readiness. This is not simply maintenance oversight. This is about:
- Governance
- Compliance
- Regulation
- Customer protection
Package
- Up to £95,000 basic salary
- Benefits package
- National leadership role
- Strategic influence across a growing specialist sector
If you have the regulatory, operational and leadership capability to operate at this level, this is a standout opportunity.
