JOB DESCRIPTION

FirstEnergy at a Glance

FirstEnergy (NYSE: FE) is a diversified energy company dedicated to safety, reliability and operational excellence.

Headquartered in Akron, Ohio, FirstEnergy comprises one of the nation's largest investor-owned electric systems based on serving six million customers in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Our diverse generating fleet features non-emitting nuclear, scrubbed baseload coal, natural gas, and pumped storage hydro and other renewables.

About the Opportunity

The selected candidate may be offered a position within the same job family, at a level that is lower than what was posted. This will be determined based upon the results of the interview process which considers the candidate's skills, work history, experience level and other relevant qualifications.

The FERC & State Compliance organization is located within the Office of Ethics and Compliance. The organization is responsible for managing compliance with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's Standards of Conduct, Affiliate Restrictions, Cross-Subsidization and Market Behavior/Anti-Market Manipulation regulations, as well as State Codes of Conduct and Corporate Separation regulations.

This position reports to the Manager, FERC and State Compliance.

This is a full-time, on-site position located in Akron, OH. The preferred office location will be at the FirstEnergy Headquarters. Other locations within the FE service territory will also be considered.

Responsibilities include:

Serve as a subject-matter expert on FERC Standards of Conduct, Affiliate Restrictions, Cross-Subsidization, and Market Behavior/Anti-Market Manipulation requirements; provide oversight and challenge to ensure FirstEnergy's companion compliance programs (FERC and State Compliance-owned) meet the Company's objective of sustained, demonstrable compliance.

Own and continuously improve written guidance, policies, standards, and operating procedures that govern the FERC Compliance Programs; ensure documentation is audit-ready, version-controlled, and aligned to regulatory intent and business processes.

Maintain deep knowledge of State Codes of Conduct compliance requirements and drive harmonization with FERC compliance frameworks where appropriate to streamline controls, reduce duplication, and strengthen enterprise consistency.

Lead and support internal/external audits, investigations, and compliance reviews involving potential FERC violations; manage auditor interactions, coordinate timely responses to requests, and document corrective actions and remediation evidence to standards required for regulatory and audit scrutiny.

Partner across compliance and control functions on investigations and special projects; advise on safeguards for FERC-sensitive information and support the independent functioning of FirstEnergy affiliates through clear controls, escalation pathways, and defensible documentation.

Design, implement, and document new controls; consult with business leaders to build fit-for-purpose local compliance programs that mitigate emerging risks while enabling operational needs. Drive practical solutions that meet business objectives without compromising FERC regulatory requirements.

Oversee and advise on the governance of employee FERC classifications and related access controls to ensure appropriate protection and segregation of FERC-sensitive information across FirstEnergy systems and network resources.
