In doing so, you'll maintain and enhance NGET's standing in the development of whole system solutions, through strategic relationships, consultations, and active cross-sector collaboration. Actively identifying opportunities to maximise network capability, incorporating innovative strategies, new technologies, you'll work with internal and external stakeholders to maximise their impact and mitigate any potential risks.

You will have an in-depth knowledge of high voltage electricity networks, including; their safe and compliant design, associated power system analysis, constituent assets, delivery, operation and evolution through new technology and design approaches. In addition, you'll have a thorough knowledge of project development issues involved in the planning of networks.

    We are looking for someone with proven leadership capability within a technical team, that has a track record of co-creation and rational decision making of complex multidisciplinary, multi-stakeholder environments. To do this, you must have the ability to build positive relationships at a senior level across organisations and have experience of leading professional engineering teams to drive forward projects within network investment areas.

    You'll be qualified to degree standard in a STEM subject, and you'll also have chartered engineering status.
