About the role

National Grid Interconnectors is at the forefront of delivering low carbon electricity between Great Britain and Europe. With a portfolio of 7.8GW of interconnection capacity, we provide infrastructure to move power to where it is most needed, providing security of supply and access to affordable power for the countries that we connect.

This is a critical time for the energy sector, as government policies and regulatory arrangements are being shaped to advance the transition to a clean and affordable power system. These developments will set the frameworks for how future interconnector projects are delivered and the cross-border market arrangements for how existing interconnectors operate.

What you'll get

A competitive salary between £48,374.00 - £57,000.00 – dependent on capability.
