Department Overview

The Electric Compliance Assurance department is part of the Electric Risk & Compliance organization, where together we will embed compliance and risk in all that we do and achieve regulatory outcomes that support the business’ needs. The work of this department is critical in our efforts to find compliance challenges and identify areas of risk so that we can fix them. The main functions of this new department are identifying areas of compliance risk and opportunities to mitigate those risks, including through incident reporting and investigations, overseeing Electric Operations and Power Generation Corrective Action Program (CAP), and validating the controls on the organization.

Position Summary

As the Manager of the Corrective Action Program, you lead the Corrective Action Program (CAP). This program is part of a series of programs that work together to reduce risk, address root causes, and prevent serious incidents while strengthening internal accountability through focused reviews of high-impact cases. With a focus of operational risk, investigative discipline, and cross-functional leadership, you ensure serious incidents or issues are prioritized appropriately and bring visibility to leadership as appropriate to ensure they are completed timely—ensuring that PG&E not only meets regulatory expectations, but continues to protect its people, the public, and the communities it serves.

The selected candidate must live within PG&E’s service territory and will be expected to work in the office 2-3 days a week.

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity. Although we estimate the successful candidate hired into this role will be placed towards the middle or entry point of the range, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis related to these factors.
