Good Growth
Good Growth is responsible for delivering and implementing the Mayor’s environment, transport and economic strategies and for the effective implementation of the London Plan. The Directorate is also responsible for regeneration (where the programme is not housing led), enterprise, growth, capital projects and design work.
About the team
The Environment and Energy unit is responsible for the policies and programmes related to the Mayor’s ambitions around the natural environment, climate adaptation and his net zero 2030 target. The 25-strong Energy team sits within this unit.
The Energy team leads on the Mayor’s manifesto commitments on domestic retrofit (through the newly established Warmer Homes London) and the Greener Schools pilot. It is also responsible for our work around London Power, community energy and supporting a strong decarbonisation pipeline across London through the Mayor’s Zero Carbon Accelerator.
About the role
This senior role will play a pivotal part in the Mayor’s ambitions towards net zero. The Head of Energy leads an expert team of around 25 people working across a number of complex energy projects. The postholder will need to support the team through periods of uncertainty and change, whilst leading a high-performing and inclusive culture.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The Head of Energy will need to demonstrate strong strategic leadership and programme delivery skills across a range of energy projects. This includes overseeing delivery of the Warm Homes Local Grant capital funding programme and supporting the newly-established Warmer Homes London office. It also includes continued delivery of the Greener Schools pilot, clean power procurement within the GLA Group, community energy and work to develop a pipeline of net zero projects through the Zero Carbon Accelerator.
The Head of Energy is a Programme Director for three Mayoral programmes of work (‘Reducing Non-Residential Emissions’, ‘Improving London’s Housing Stock’ and ‘Upgrading London’s Infrastructure’). This involves supporting the SROs for these programmes to ensure delivery of key outputs, identification and mitigation of risks, and careful management of budgets to maximise delivery and ensure value for money.&nbsp;
The postholder will need to develop strong working relationships with the Deputy Mayor and the wider Mayor’s Office, supporting their decision-making and ensuring team resources are focused on priorities. In addition, effective partnership working with London Councils, London boroughs and functional bodies across the GLA Group will be key to successful delivery.
On behalf of the GLA, the Head of Energy will play a critical leadership role for London’s climate sector in reducing our city’s carbon emissions by retrofitting homes and schools, switching to cleaner forms of power, and developing a strong pipeline of net zero projects.
