As a User Researcher, you will ensure our services meet users' needs by leading in-depth research on how people interact with them.

At every step of the journey, you will be vital to informing, testing and supporting projects and will work with a huge range of engaged parties across Ofgem and beyond to make sure our solutions are the best they can possibly be, and user-centred thinking is at the heart of our decision-making.
We're looking for someone with professional experience as a User Researcher, working alongside User Centred Design disciplines. You should have experience influencing and engaging stakeholders, including sceptical colleagues, and be confident in conducting inclusive research to ensure services meet the needs of all users. The ability to select and apply the right qualitative and quantitative research methods to deliver meaningful insights is essential.
In return, we offer an environment where you have everything you need to thrive, from flexible working options to outstanding perks and benefits. What's more, you'll have access to professional development opportunities to support your growth, whilst contributing to a mission-driven organisation that's shaping the future of the UK energy sector and leading the drive towards Net Zero.
We have a critical purpose to ensure that the public have an Energy Industry that works for them and services that are designed around their needs.
