Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Industry Placements Full time
About the Role

National Grid Ventures is a business area that focuses on energy ventures, including Interconnectors. Interconnectors play a key part in the UK's energy industry, connecting us to our neighbouring countries and providing sustainable, flexible energy transmission. As well as providing National Grid with strong financial performance, successful operation of these interconnectors offers the GB System Operator a greater diversity of supply, facilitates competition across Europe and helps address the intermittency issues posed by renewables.

The purpose of this role is to provide support to the Commercial, Customer & Regulations Team, which is part of the Interconnectors business. You will get the opportunity to work with the commercial, regulation and project management teams, so that you can get exposure to a wide range of activities across the interconnectors business. You will gain extensive industry knowledge, as well as the commercial aspects of managing multiple Interconnectors.

You'll gain a wide-ranging experience of the ever-evolving European energy market as well as the growing National Grid Ventures directorate, where the drive for commercial profitability, operational efficiency and risk management are key. This role will provide you a unique opportunity to develop a wider perspective of the energy industry whilst gaining exposure to the operational, contract management, commercial, customer, regulation and financial areas of the business. There will be potential for you to work in a European environment developing professional relationships with people from different cultures both internally within Interconnectors and externally with our suppliers, customers and project partners.

This is an exciting time to join Interconnectors, we are at the forefront of solving the net zero conundrum by providing the capabilities to optimise renewable generation across Europe.

Our Graduate Programme

As you'll be joining our 18-month graduate programme, you'll have a tailored development pathway to support you as you develop a wide range of leadership, business, and technical skills. You'll attend in-person and virtual development sessions throughout your programme to equip you with the essential skills required, as you begin your career at National Grid. We're committed to the personal development of our colleagues so as well as the support from your line manager as you navigate your new role, you'll also have access to 121 coaching and a mentor, from a previous cohort to help you transition from campus to corporate life.

All graduates complete the core development programme to develop key skills such as how to make an impact, giving feedback and presentation skills. If relevant to your career aspirations, you will be able to access Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) membership and seek support from a National Grid IET mentor to help you secure your chartership.

We believe in the importance of getting as much on-the-job experience as possible and to do this, you will complete three 6-month placements, across the UK, designed to deepen your understanding of your speciality but to also broaden your knowledge of our business.

What You'll Need to Apply

You'll need to achieve a minimum 2:2 in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Math (STEM) or Finance related degree. It doesn't matter when you graduated or if you are currently working towards your qualification.

You'll need flexibility to travel within role and throughout your rotations as required.

To be eligible to apply for this role, candidates must be able to demonstrate that they will have the legal right to work in the UK for the duration of the graduate programme. If you do not currently have the right to work in the UK, or your visa is due to expire during the period of the graduate scheme, please indicate this in your application and we will consider your eligibility for visa sponsorship and whether it would be appropriate to take your application forward.
