As the economic regulator of water and wastewater companies in England and Wales, our role is to enable, incentivise and hold companies to account for providing the very best for customers, communities and the environment. We also oversee the markets in the water sector to ensure they're working for customers. Following the Independent Water Commission's Final Report and subsequent White Paper - 'New Vision for Water', the UK government has set out a bold new direction - one that brings together expertise from across the sector to deliver better outcomes for customers and the environment. The Role We are seeking an experienced Financial Economist or Corporate Finance Equity Specialist to join our Risk & Return team within the Price Review Directorate to help with preparations for PR29, the price review covering the period . The successful candidate will play an important role in determining our methodology for the allowed return on equity for PR29.

Conduct and commission financial analysis - for instance using the latest market data to estimate the return on equity using the CAPM. Draft slide packs and documents - for instance drafting a discussion paper to inform a cost of equity workshop or consultation, or a slidepack for a discussion that helps Ofwat Board to decide whether to sign-off on a cost of equity policy proposal. Verbally present findings - for instance briefing the team's Director on the key findings of review work or analysis. Develop and interrogate Excel-based models - while not primarily a modelling role, it will likely involve some scrutiny of non-Ofwat models and may involve having a hand in developing in-house models to support our policy areas. Oversee junior staff time - the role is likely to involve managing the time of 1 junior colleague, and potentially more during peak periods (e.g. a graduate). Build relationships - in particular with other Risk & Return team members, and other Ofwat teams where there is thematic overlap, and external stakeholders such as counterparts in other regulators, or investors.
