About the Role
The UK's net-zero ambition by 2050 has driven the energy industry to respond, and National Grid ESO is at the forefront of this transformation. As we grow our security team, we are seeking a Supply Chain Security Assurance Manager to join our rapidly expanding and high-functioning Security team. This role will involve building and leading a comprehensive supply chain security assurance function, collaborating closely with internal teams and the supply chain to conduct risk assessments, identify and mitigate potential supply chain security risks, and provide regular monitoring, assurance, and reporting.
About Us
National Grid ESO's mission is to deliver cleaner, affordable electricity, and we strive to achieve this through technology and innovation. As we transition to becoming the National Energy System Operator (NESO) in 2024, we will build on our existing roles, capabilities, and ways of working to create an organisation that meets the energy system's needs. Our new capabilities will enable us to consider the trade-offs between electricity, natural gas, and hydrogen, and we will be set up as a public corporation with our own Board of independent directors.
