WESTMINSTER CITY COUNCIL-1
City Of Westminster, London
About Us: THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM Innovation and Change in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories. Where people use their vision and commitment to open doors for the next generations. Nothing beats the feeling of helping someone find their passion. At Westminster City Council, our City Lions team helps young local people engage with culture, creativity and dreams. When they came across a lonely, isolated 16-year-old who called himself a failure, they knew what to do. They worked 1-2-1 to find the thing this boy really loved. YouTube, it turned out. But it's impossible to turn that into a career, right? Wrong. A week later, he was enrolled on the British Film Institute film-making programme. It was the ultimate light-bulb moment. And it turned him into what he is today - a budding Spielberg with a world of opportunity at his feet. The Role: As Community Infrastructure Levy and Section 106 Officer you can make your own powerful contribution to Westminster's success. Developing, delivering, monitoring and maintaining the data systems required to collect and enforce our Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and relevant Mayoral policies, it'll be your task to analyse, interpret and present this data. Your work will then help us make CIL expenditure decisions, reviews, planning, monitoring and interventions. You'll also manage payments to ensure they're properly accounted for and transferred for expenditure, and prepare quarterly reports for the Mayoral Crossrail CIL and section 106 and Westminster's own CIL. Carrying out a range of tasks to monitor Section 106 agreements, including the application of planning obligations and ensuring payments are collected on time, you'll determine CIL liabilities, including any surcharges due. We'll also expect you to support the administration and enforcement of the collection of the Mayor of London's CILs, keep records of notices and decisions, provide management information and prepare statutory statistical returns, and respond to any Freedom of Information requests. You'll have a wide range of additional responsibilities, including providing advice on CIL/Section 106 enquiries, attending relevant external groups and networks, disseminating key messages across the council, and maintaining up-to-date knowledge on new legislation, research and policy developments relevant to your area of expertise. In addition, you'll assist with the coordination and development of Westminster CIL and Section 106 policies, work on the implementation of a governance process for spending funds, and help to devise operational processes that enable the monitoring and reporting of expenditure. About You: With well developed experience of working in development management, the management of S106 agreements or the administration and calculation of CIL, you'll be ready to use databases and financial management software as you focus on detailed calculations in a high-pressure environment. You'll be working alongside a range of stakeholders and customers, so with this in mind you should have superb communication and interpersonal skills, and a good command of English. We'll also expect you to be highly numerate with the ability to analyse and present financial data, and possess strong team-working, influencing and negotiation abilities. Well organised, with good priority setting and time management skills, and ready to deliver high quality results while working to tight deadlines, you'll be a motivated self-starter with the ability to get to grips with work quickly and independently. We'll look for good working knowledge of Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint software, and experience of using dedicated CIL/S106 databases and software such as EXACOM would be a bonus. When it comes to qualifications, you should have a minimum of 4 GCSE (or their equivalent) passes including Maths and English, and knowledge of town planning legislation and the Community Infrastructure Regulations 2010 would be helpful. In addition, membership or the desire to work towards membership of an appropriate professional body such as the Royal Town Planning Institute would be desirable. What We Offer: Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to more than 200,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. Westminster City Council's strategy is to work towards a Fairer Westminster. A Fairer Westminster is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city's future. By working directly with our communities and other partners, we can build a more inclusive city that celebrates our diverse communities, and where residents, workers and visitors from all backgrounds will feel welcome and safe. At Westminster City Council, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive workplace and employer of choice. We encourage and welcome applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that, at all levels, represents the communities we serve. We champion equality, diversity, inclusion and wellbeing and aim to create a workplace where everyone feels valued, has a sense of belonging and is empowered to be their best, that is the Westminster Way. To find out more about how we do this visit As a forward-thinking Council we appreciate that people work in different ways, therefore our staff benefit from working a range of flexible working patterns as well as Agile working. The Council is a Disability Confident Employer. If you have declared a disability in your application, we guarantee an interview if you meet the essential criteria of the job. If you are invited for interview, you will be asked if you need any reasonable adjustments in order to attend, and we will make these wherever possible. Closing date: 26 April 2024. Interview date: Week commencing 13 May 2024. Contact details for Informal discussion: Isobel Williams, IPD Programme Manager, via email:

Smart Energy Change Consultant London, UK Full-time Contract Type: Permanent contract Company Description Gemserv is an expert provider of professional services. We are purpose-driven, working across multiple sectors including energy, low carbon, the public sector and health to tackle today's social and environmental challenges. Established in 2002, the business provides a range of consultancy and outsourcing capabilities including programme management, market design and governance. We also have extensive and award winning capabilities across cyber security, data privacy and digital transformation. We are a B Corp, IIP Gold accredited and a Financial Times Leading Management Consultancy for 2021 and 2022. Our purpose is to make things that matter work better for everyone. The nature of what we do means we are very much a people business. The contribution every member of the team makes to our diverse range of experience, skills and personalities is valued. We invest heavily in learning and development to enable our people to develop skills and gain experience which will enhance career prospects for life. Many who started their careers with us have rapidly progressed to more senior positions. At Gemserv no two days are the same, but we believe in a flexible approach to working which we know our employees value. We also offer an attractive package of benefits in addition to highly competitive salaries including bonus scheme, pension and healthcare, season ticket loans, discounted gym membership, Cycle to Work scheme and more. Job Description The Role The Smart Energy Code (SEC) underpins the smart meter rollout programme in Great Britain and is opening up opportunities for the future direction of the market. Gemserv has been providing the Smart Energy Code Administration and Secretariat (SECAS) service on behalf of the energy industry since 2013, providing challenging and rewarding work. It's a complex and ground-breaking sector and would suit someone who wants to make a real difference in the transition to Net Zero. We are looking for someone to join us who has good knowledge of smart metering arrangements and experience working within a regulated environment. The SEC Change team is responsible for driving and delivering industry change to the SEC and smart meter infrastructure by working with a wide range of energy industry parties including energy suppliers, network operators, IT providers (the Data Communications Company), other Codes, government (DESNZ) and the regulator (Ofgem), affording you a high degree of exposure to key decision makers. In this role, you will be responsible for managing issues through the entire end-to-end change process, liaising with the initial proposer of the change, conducting root cause analysis to understand the issue, and identifying the best route for the issue to be addressed. You will need to be confident in steering proposers to use the most appropriate channel. For issues that require a modification to the SEC or the underpinning IT systems, you will draft business requirements to address complex technical issues. This will involve engaging with technical and non-technical stakeholders to capture views and impacts, facilitating workshops, producing high-quality change documentation, and updating key stakeholders. You will manage industry consultations and present at various Committees and industry groups to elicit their subject matter input. You will need to incorporate industry feedback into change documentation, negotiating and collaborate with stakeholders where differing views and opinions arise, and secure information to support a particular direction. You will need to be confident in presenting, making recommendations, and challenging stakeholders, where appropriate. For more complex or high-impacting modifications, you may also be involved in delivering webinars, or attending SEC Panel meetings to brief senior decision-makers and for cross-Code impacting modifications you will also need to represent the change in cross-Code working groups. To further support the understanding of change and its impacts on differing stakeholder groups, we also make use of Podcasts in which you will participate. Throughout the change process, you will need to work closely with the partner IT organisation, scrutinising their outputs and challenging detail, solutions, and costs where appropriate. You will also need to actively manage timelines to ensure partner service levels are achieved, and the modification progresses to the agreed timetable. The role will also involve chairing industry meetings and leading on other work streams. The role therefore requires excellent project management, facilitation, communication, and stakeholder management skills. It will also require active involvement in the team's Quality Management processes, including reviewing documentation and challenging assumptions, technical arrangements, and impacts of potential modifications. A high level of attention to detail is essential. Furthermore, as we continually look to improve and streamline our processes to drive the throughput of change, you will take an active role in identifying and implementing improvements. The successful candidate will need to understand the GB smart metering arrangements, and the governance and technical arrangements underpinning these. We are therefore looking for someone who has worked within the smart metering sector.

Established in 2002, the business provides a range of consultancy and outsourcing capabilities including programme management, market design and governance. We also have extensive and award winning capabilities across cyber security, data privacy and digital transformation. We are a B Corp, IIP Gold accredited and a Financial Times Leading Management Consultancy for 2021 and 2022. Our purpose is to make things that matter work better for everyone. The nature of what we do means we are very much a people business. The contribution every member of the team makes to our diverse range of experience, skills and personalities is valued. We invest heavily in learning and development to enable our people to develop skills and gain experience which will enhance career prospects for life. Many who started their careers with us have rapidly progressed to more senior positions. At Gemserv no two days are the same, but we believe in a flexible approach to working which we know our employees value. We also offer an attractive package of benefits in addition to highly competitive salaries including bonus scheme, pension and healthcare, season ticket loans, discounted gym membership, Cycle to Work scheme and more. Job Description The Role The Smart Energy Code (SEC) underpins the smart meter rollout programme in Great Britain and is opening up opportunities for the future direction of the market. Gemserv has been providing the Smart Energy Code Administration and Secretariat (SECAS) service on behalf of the energy industry since 2013, providing challenging and rewarding work. It's a complex and ground-breaking sector and would suit someone who wants to make a real difference in the transition to Net Zero. We are looking for someone to join us who has good knowledge of smart metering arrangements and experience working within a regulated environment. The SEC Change team is responsible for driving and delivering industry change to the SEC and smart meter infrastructure by working with a wide range of energy industry parties including energy suppliers, network operators, IT providers (the Data Communications Company), other Codes, government (DESNZ) and the regulator (Ofgem), affording you a high degree of exposure to key decision makers. In this role, you will be responsible for managing issues through the entire end-to-end change process, liaising with the initial proposer of the change, conducting root cause analysis to understand the issue, and identifying the best route for the issue to be addressed. You will need to be confident in steering proposers to use the most appropriate channel. For issues that require a modification to the SEC or the underpinning IT systems, you will draft business requirements to address complex technical issues. This will involve engaging with technical and non-technical stakeholders to capture views and impacts, facilitating workshops, producing high-quality change documentation, and updating key stakeholders. You will manage industry consultations and present at various Committees and industry groups to elicit their subject matter input. You will need to incorporate industry feedback into change documentation, negotiating and collaborate with stakeholders where differing views and opinions arise, and secure information to support a particular direction. You will need to be confident in presenting, making recommendations, and challenging stakeholders, where appropriate. For more complex or high-impacting modifications, you may also be involved in delivering webinars, or attending SEC Panel meetings to brief senior decision-makers and for cross-Code impacting modifications you will also need to represent the change in cross-Code working groups. To further support the understanding of change and its impacts on differing stakeholder groups, we also make use of Podcasts in which you will participate. Throughout the change process, you will need to work closely with the partner IT organisation, scrutinising their outputs and challenging detail, solutions, and costs where appropriate. You will also need to actively manage timelines to ensure partner service levels are achieved, and the modification progresses to the agreed timetable. The role will also involve chairing industry meetings and leading on other work streams. The role therefore requires excellent project management, facilitation, communication, and stakeholder management skills. It will also require active involvement in the team's Quality Management processes, including reviewing documentation and challenging assumptions, technical arrangements, and impacts of potential modifications. A high level of attention to detail is essential. Furthermore, as we continually look to improve and streamline our processes to drive the throughput of change, you will take an active role in identifying and implementing improvements. The successful candidate will need to understand the GB smart metering arrangements, and the governance and technical arrangements underpinning these. We are therefore looking for someone who has worked within the smart metering sector. The successful candidate will be highly organised and able to work independently, taking responsibility for project deadlines. They will be able to proactively research the background of an issue, identify the root cause of problems and appropriate solutions, and be able to translate technical information into Plain English. Responsibilities Reporting to the Change Delivery Manager, the specific duties of the role will include but are not limited to: Providing advice and 'critical friend' support to various parties and stakeholders involved in the change process Analysing the root cause of issues, providing guidance on the appropriate channel to resolve the issue Developing detailed business requirements with stakeholders Working with industry and facilitating workshops to identify the impacts of change Producing project plans for each change Preparing and delivering clear presentations to a variety of forums Reviewing and responding to industry consultation responses Partnering with and challenging third-party IT providers on their deliverables Producing high-quality change documentation in Plain English and line with internal standards Establishing a robust business case for each change Preparing accurate legal text, displaying a keen eye for detail Building and maintaining strong client and customer relationships, providing friendly and reliable expert advice to clients on industry change and the SEC processes Managing industry stakeholders and governance and delivery bodies to ensure the successful progression and assessment of proposed changes Managing, chairing, and facilitating industry forums as required to discuss and develop modifications Supporting the planning, preparation, and deployment of new versions of the Smart Energy Code Contributing to our culture of continuous improvement Leading on other work areas as directed by the Change Delivery Manager Competitive salary plus bonus and excellent benefits package London office (hybrid working 2/3 days a week) Qualifications Requirements Candidates must have an in-depth understanding of the smart metering arrangements, and the governance and technical arrangements underpinning these, having worked in the energy/smart metering sector.
