The Office of Rail and Road (ORR) is the competition authority for the rail sector under the 1998 Competition Act, with powers concurrent with the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). The Competition Team sits within the Economics, Finance and Markets (EFM) directorate, which leads on financial and economic analysis within ORR. We oversee the competitiveness of markets across the rail sector and its supply chain, and have broad statutory powers to intervene where necessary. We work on complex projects to promote and protect competition in rail markets, using our competition powers and policy tools to support the delivery of an efficient, high-performing rail service that provides value for money for passengers, freight customers, governments, and taxpayers. Leading a dedicated and specialist team, responsible for ensuring fair and effective competition in rail markets, you will provide dynamic and strategic leadership in generating and driving forward a pipeline of competition work, including market studies, competition cases and the development of competition policy. You will engage with internal and external stakeholders to understand issues, and build and ensure the effective performance of a highly skilled team.
