Michael Page | Leeds | michaelpage.co.uk |
About Our Client
The National Infrastructure Commission was established in 2016 to provide government with impartial, expert advice on major long-term infrastructure challenges. The Commission advises government on all sectors of economic infrastructure (energy, transport, water and wastewater, waste, flood risk management and digital communications), as well as on cross-cutting issues, including planning, regulation and financing/funding.
Job Description
The National Infrastructure Commission is looking for an infrastructure/capital financing expert and/or regulatory specialist to lead its cross-sector advice on economic regulation and infrastructure funding and finance. This is a new role in the NIC and was created to reflect the unprecedented pressure and pace required to enable delivery of the UK's pressing economic infrastructure needs over the coming decades.
The post holders will report to the NIC's Chief Economist and will be expected to provide impactful strategic, analytical and policy insights across all economic infrastructure sectors and related funding and financing business models; leveraging industry/expert insights, evidence and cutting-edge thinking to support scoping and direction-setting; be strategic and consider wider political, economic and social solutions; taking charge of rigorous quality assurance processes for their own and others work; and collaborating with regulators, infrastructure delivery and financing organisations and colleagues from other disciplines/backgrounds to ensure evidence is visible, relevant and impactful.The Commission's work is highly varied, and the post holder can expect to develop deep knowledge of economic infrastructure sectors they work across, including:
• Planning and delivering powerful insights and recommendations on infrastructure financing business models, across public, private, private-public and regulated sectors (eg. project debt, equity and hybrid models; utilising knowledge of project finance markets; economic regulatory models, e.g. RAB; and international best practice)
• Developing a deep understanding on major cost drivers across infrastructure delivery in all sectors, seek out best practice in reducing these across sectors (e.g. regulatory models, market structures, procurement or financing options)
• Developing and leveraging relationships with government, industry, academia and international expertise to advise and steer the Commission's work
• Deepening the Commission's evidence base across recommendations in the second National Infrastructure Assessment
• Supporting the wider sectoral teams on project finance and regulated sectors insights and advice relevant to all economic infrastructure sectors.
The Successful Applicant
1. Form expert strategic views, appreciating detail but being able to stand back and see the bigger picture, to drive direction and advise policy and analysis. This includes being able to follow closely, understand and quickly adapt to how wider changes in the economy, markets and political landscape and how these impact infrastructure investment and advice of the NIC.
2. Communicate with others in a clear, honest and enthusiastic way. Explain complex issues in a way that is easy to understand and communicate effectively in writing.
3. Form effective partnerships and relationships with people both internally and externally, from a range of diverse backgrounds, sharing information, resources and support.
4. Deliver timely and quality outcomes across sometimes competing priorities through identifying the right resource to do the job, setting realistic plans, reviewing and adjusting plans and performance expectations.
5. Evidence of substantial experience working in a capital/infrastructure financing facing role and/or in a economic regulatory capacity, preferably with some application in a strategic and policy context. You will have the ability to set direction and deliver high quality influential quantitative analysis and be able to distil into strategic insights and recommendations.
Qualifications
1. We welcome applications from a range of relevant backgrounds and with experience in infrastructure funding and financing, regulatory economics and/or major capital projects/portfolio analysis. Qualifications will include either a relevant professional finance qualification and/or degree in a relevant subject such as economics, finance and/or equivalent quantitative subject.
