Wellington City, New Zealand First Gas Limited Full time

**Company Description** Mātau roopu ake **(About us)

At Clarus you’ll be part of the talented, hardworking team who help safely deliver the vital energy New Zealand needs to thrive today and in the future. We began in Taranaki, but our Rockgas, Firstgas, Firstlight, First Renewables, Flexgas and Gas Service NZ operations now span the length and breadth of Aotearoa — so you’re never far away from our good energy. Clarus is investing in opportunities to develop greener alternatives to natural gas and LPG - like partnering with Ecogas to deliver New Zealand’s first renewable biomethane project, and working with other gas distributors to trial hydrogen blending. We care about the communities where we live and work and are guided by principles of inclusiveness, kaitiakitanga and excellence.

Are you ready to take your regulatory expertise to the next level or kickstart your career in regulation? We are looking for a motivated individual to join our team as a Senior Regulatory Advisor or Regulatory Advisor.

In this role, you will play a key part in assisting with the implementation of Clarus’s regulatory strategy and ensuring we comply with regulatory obligations. The work programme, which is interesting and challenging, will require you to monitor regulatory developments, advise on and implement regulatory changes, and provide advice and support to the group businesses. There are many opportunities for you to step up in this role, including leading the preparation of annual regulatory disclosures for our regulated businesses and drafting submissions to regulators, MBIE, and other government and non-government entities.

This role can be based in Wellington, Christchurch or New Plymouth.
**Qualifications**
Relevant tertiary qualifications in policy, law, economics or finance.

You will bring several years’ experience as an Analyst or an Advisor. While it would be advantageous to have previous experience in a regulatory role, in a regulatory environment, especially in the energy or infrastructure sectors, being curious and quick to learn is more important to us. Having an understanding of the Gas Act 1992 and the Electricity Industry Act 2010 and Part 4 of the Commerce Act 1986 would be advantageous.

You will be good at working with lots of detail and identifying what the key information/trends/data are, as well as being able to step back from that detail and take a company‑wide perspective in your work and recommendations. Relationships will be important to you and you will enjoy working and engaging with a wide range of people at all levels of the organisation.

Depending on your experience and qualifications you will be recruited into the role that best fits your background.

**Additional Information** Ngā āhuatanga kei a mātou **(What’s in it for you)

You’ll be valued for who you are, rewarded for what you do and supported to thrive. We’ll sweeten your (already nicely competitive) salary, additional leave entitlements, flexible working arrangements and free insurances and health checks. We’ll fuel your professional development, keep you at the top of your game and help you build the career you want. Our award-winning wellness programme recognises you’re more than the job you do and supports you with initiatives like an annual wellness grant and access to professional wellbeing services for you and your whānau. You’ll get to work in a safe, healthy environment, supported by great people who want to see you succeed.
