• Able to recognise client deliverable milestones, make prioritisation decisions to adapt and always meet client expectations.

About You

• You have worked for at least the last 5 - 10 years in a regulated utility or at an economic regulator, working directly on regulatory models (revenue building block, pricing, expenditure, incentive schemes, etc) and providing a substantial contribution to the regulator’s decision or utilities’ regulatory submission.

• You have an economics degree, preferably Honours or higher

• You are an advanced Excel user who knows the value of using models as communication tools

• You are curious and want to understand how things work

• You are an autonomous self-starter

• You follow through by doing what you say you are going to do

• You enjoy working in a team of high achievers, and

• You always seek perfection in your work.

• focusing on our clients’ challenges and desired outcomes rather than a specific scope of work

• developing a deep and unparalleled understanding of issues to find creative solutions to unsolved problems,

• undertaking rigorous, accurate and reliable economic or financial modelling to inform policy and investment decisions,

• analytically considering short and long-term impacts of policies and investments on both businesses, consumers and the wider community,

• applying context-specific understanding to systematically consider and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, and

• preparing clear and persuasive documents that ensure issues are understood – capturing the big-picture context and important nuances often buried in the detail.

Why Join our Team

You’ll be part of a collaborative, intellectually curious team working on projects that make a measurable impact in regulated industries. We offer flexible work arrangements, professional development opportunities and offer a supportive environment that values rigour and innovation.

If you’re ready to apply your regulatory expertise to meaningful, high-profile projects and thrive in a collaborative, small-team setting, we’d love to hear from you.
