Join us, be part of more.
We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it.
About your team:
At British Gas, our mission is to sell it and mend it.
We’ve been powering the UK’s homes and businesses for over 200 years – but supplying energy is just part of what we do. We’re making the UK greener and more energy efficient, getting closer to Net Zero. By using clever tech like thermostats, heat pumps, solar panels and EV chargers, we’re making it cheaper and easier for our customers to reduce their carbon-footprint.
We have a great opportunity for a Metering Ecosystem Lead. The Metering Ecosystem Lead will serve as the primary interface both internally and externally across the systems, organisations, and partners responsible for maintaining the functionality of our smart meters.

About the role:
- Coordinate industry engagement across key stakeholders like DCC, utilities, and meter manufacturers to ensure alignment with British Gas priorities, consistent messaging, and effective follow-up on actions.
- Support executives with communication materials for industry forums and define governance structures for internal decision-making, including roles, responsibilities, and delegated authority.
- Lead Metering Infrastructure’s approach to incident and problem management, ensuring timely reporting, structured remediation, and continuous improvement across the estate.
- Drive strategic change planning by prioritising Metering Infrastructure initiatives, securing cross-business buy-in, and representing metering interests in broader change forums.
- Oversee Metering Infrastructure’s involvement in business and industry trials, establishing clear governance and ensuring coordinated execution.
Here’s what we’re looking for:
- Skilled in managing multiple strategic projects across complex environments.
- Experienced in performance and service level management within energy or telecom sectors.
- Strong smart metering expertise, including tech, infrastructure, and compliance.
