What’s the role

As a Regulatory Operator in Low Carbon Fuels (LCF), you will manage day-to-day regulatory operations within a defined scope, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and audit readiness.

You will develop subject matter knowledge, collaborate effectively with stakeholders, and provide clear, actionable insights. The role involves identifying process inefficiencies and risks, resolving issues within scope, and escalating more complex matters as needed, while contributing to continuous improvement.

The LCF Regulatory Operations team ensures compliance with country-specific biofuel mandates by managing sustainability documentation and bio-tickets within Trading & Supply. This work is critical for certification, regulatory submissions, and optimizing end-to-end commercial value, with a focus on accurate, timely execution and ongoing process improvement.

Apply analytical thinking to identify trends, risks, and optimisation opportunities across processes and data.

Maintain clear, structured communication with stakeholders, ensuring accurate data flow, alignment, and efficient execution across processes.

Contribute to team effectiveness through knowledge sharing, cross-focus group participation, and continuous improvement initiatives.
