Just Transition and Communities Analyst

The role

As an analyst working with our just transition and communities team, you will conduct rigorous research, present compelling analysis and engage with key policymakers and industry players to shape the transformation of our energy system to place communities and people at its heart.

In particular, you will:

• Undertake high-quality research, stakeholder engagement and analysis to influence decision making and drive fairer policies, programmes and investments at the local, regional and national level
• Deliver high-quality, impactful projects that accelerate just transition action
• Contribute expertise in just transitions and community energy to the wider Regen team, across energy markets, planning, grid connections, heat, industry and transport
• Work effectively with partners and clients across communities, local authorities, governments and energy networks
• Engage with industry and policy developments, such as the Local Power Plan, the Warm Homes Plan and Fuel Poverty Strategy, and upcoming government consultations on shared ownership
• Support external engagement, including helping to prepare briefings, reports, events, blogs and presentations that communicate Regen’s work clearly and accessibly.

Examples of Regen’s just transition and communities work can be found here.

We are also open to applications from individuals who have more experience at the project management level within just transitions or community energy and would consider appointing at a higher salary band for the right person.

Regen is based on a self-organising, developmental operating model. We encourage people to bring their whole selves to the organisation, valuing collaboration and trust. Roles are flexible and evolving, shaped by both individual strengths and the needs of the organisation, where all members of our team contribute to our purpose.

We value authenticity! Please prepare your application and interview responses yourself, without using AI tools.

Prior to your application, you are welcome to express interest via email to Grace Millman, [email protected], and arrange an informal conversation about the role.

Suitable candidates will be invited to an in-person interview. Interviews are expected to take place at our Exeter office on 6 October 2026, with some flexibility by arrangement. At the interview stage, candidates will be asked to give a presentation and complete an additional task.

The expected start date is to be as soon as possible after acceptance, with some flexibility by arrangement.
