POSITION DESCRIPTION

Under the Director of Enforcement, the primary responsibility of the Operations and Planning (O&P) Enforcement Manager is to process and resolve noncompliance with NERC Reliability Standards. This includes ensuring consistent application of the standards, confirming that risk assessments are technically sound, verifying that corrective actions are developed, approved and completed, and determining appropriate enforcement dispositions. 

ENFORCEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Evaluate applicability of NERC O&P Standard noncompliance by leveraging NERC Standards language and measures, Implementation Plans, ERO-developed practice guides, and industry-created implementation guidance. 
  • Assess noncompliance for completeness of disclosure including but not limited to scope, duration, discovery, and accuracy of root cause. 
  • Evaluate risk to the Bulk Power System of O&P Standard noncompliance to ensure risk assessments are technically sound and defensible. 
  • Review and/or work with entities in developing mitigating actions to remediate and prevent recurrence.
  • Evaluate the quality and completeness of evidence submitted by registered entities in support of mitigation completion. 
  • Triage incoming noncompliance to identify violation facts, preliminary risk assessment, and complexity of the noncompliance.
  • Communicate with registered entities and the ERO Enterprise as necessary, to investigate O&P noncompliance and issues, and to assure appropriate and informed enforcement actions.
  • Provide formal written assessments that serve as the technical basis for enforcement disposition recommendations. 

ENFORCEMENT MANAGER RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Manage the O&P Enforcement Team, including oversight of enforcement-related activities and supervision of day-to-day team responsibilities.
  • Identify trends that may indicate systemic compliance risks across the NPCC region.
  • Recommend conclusions for each noncompliance considering factors such as scope, duration, risk, mitigating factors, and compliance history. 
  • Distinguish between isolated occurrences and systemic compliance program weaknesses. 
  • Collaborate with O&P monitoring teams to ensure that noncompliance outcomes inform future audit scoping, sampling, and Inherent Risk Assessments. 
  • Monitor emerging risks found in FERC Orders, Standards development, reliability guidance, and industry developments for implications to the enforcement risk posture. 
  • Assist, from a technical perspective, in the negotiation of settlements. 
  • Provide evidence, testimony, and documentation in support of Hearing Proceedings, as needed. 
  • Provide training, education, and communications to NPCC staff, Registered Entities, and ERO Enterprise staff.

General Responsibilities

  • Adhere to NPCC’s data classification policy. 
  • Ensure information and data placed into various portals, software, and databases are accurate and complete.
  • Participate in NPCC and ERO Enterprise meetings, workshops, task forces, committees, and forums.
  • Work closely with the Director, Enforcement, legal, and other NPCC staff to develop and/or review responses to oversight.
  • Provide O&P technical expertise to NPCC staff.
  • Develop and/or amend policies and procedures.
  • Perform other assignments as directed. 

EDUCATION AND CERTIFICATION/LICENSE CREDENTIALS

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power System Engineering, or other relevant Bachelor’s degree.
  • 7 or more years’ experience in the electric utility industry in bulk power system planning and/or utility operations 
  • One or more of the following certifications/licenses/experiences are preferred:
    • Professional Engineering License 
    • NERC System Operator Certification 
    • Other electric power system operations and/or planning certifications. 
    • Experience in the qualitative assessment of system risk with respect to thermal, voltage, short circuit, and stability issues.
    • Experience in protection system design and operation under emergency system conditions.

FUNCTIONAL COMPETENCIES

  • Ability to effectively communicate technical concepts to non-experts verbally and in writing.
  • Excellent organizational skills and ability to prioritize and to manage multiple assignments concurrently.
  • Strong questioning attitude and attention to detail.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong interpersonal and conflict resolution skills.
  • Ability to mentor others. 
  • Ability to learn and work in a variety of portals, software, and databases. 
  • Proficient with Microsoft Office Suite or related software.
