About the role

We are hiring a Senior Analyst, Energy Strategy & Scenario Planning to provide analytical, process, and decision-making support to the Director of Gas Scenario Planning. This is a high-impact, high-autonomy role for someone who finds genuine satisfaction in complex, evolving problems and is energized by purpose.

Responsibilities

  • Support the end-to-end gas scenario planning process, helping coordinate across demand forecasting, capacity need identification, and optioneering of supply, infrastructure, and demand-side solutions.
  • Build and maintain analytical models to evaluate long-term gas capacity needs and solution portfolios, including benefit-cost analysis and risk assessments.
  • Track implementation of solution portfolios and conduct contingency analysis to adapt to changing conditions.
  • Produce executive- and stakeholder-ready materials: Build presentations, briefing documents, and recurring reports-such as the EMT/FAWG Annual Report, the LTP Annual Update, and Steering Committee decks-that translate complex analysis into clear narratives for senior leadership, regulators, and external partners.
  • Gather, synthesize, and quality-check data: Pull and reconcile inputs from regulatory filings, internal subject-matter experts, and external sources, and coordinate SME contributions into cohesive, accurate deliverables.
  • Help define and track KPIs and risk indicators, producing dashboards and insights for senior leadership.
  • Support project governance for major analytical workstreams: help structure the work plan, track milestones and accountability, maintain review cadences, prepare materials for executive and regulatory stakeholders, and help maintain forward momentum across complex, multi-month projects.
  • Support the Director's coordination with external advisors and consultants: help review and integrate work products and support quality control to ensure external partners (such as Guidehouse or Concentric) produce analysis that is analytically sound and fit for regulatory purpose.
  • Contribute to regulatory filings, including the NY Gas Long-Term Plan and MA Climate Compliance Plan, and support testimony and stakeholder engagement.
  • Support continuous improvement, challenging internal assumptions and refining processes to improve outcomes.
  • Iterate and adapt: Embrace the reality that solutions often require multiple rounds of refinement, and be comfortable going back to the drawing board when needed.
  • Create buy-in: Help galvanize team members and stakeholders, even when projects are assigned from above or lack immediate excitement.

Qualifications

  • Minimum 3 years of experience in an analytically rigorous environment-consulting, regulatory affairs, energy, engineering, infrastructure, or an adjacent field. We value depth of thinking and strategic capability over a specific background or credential.
  • Working proficiency in scenario modeling, benefit-cost analysis, and strategic planning, with the ability and appetite to grow toward advanced expertise.
  • Experience with regulatory filings and stakeholder engagement in NY or MA preferred.
  • Preferred: Genuine engagement with the complexity of the energy transition-specifically, the pragmatic challenge of balancing decarbonization goals with gas system reliability and customer affordability.
  • Project management experience coordinating multiple stakeholders in a rapidly changing environment-supporting scoping, tracking accountability, and helping deliver polished products through complex review and stakeholder processes. This is not IT or software project management.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities, including the ability to structure persuasive analytical documents and prepare clear materials for executive audiences.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and Teams, and comfort with project-management and collaboration tools (e.g., SmartSheet).
