Due to the amount of travel to our site locations, you’ll be issued with a company car (due to being both a business requirement and for personal use this will be subject to BIK tax, there is no option for a cash alternative). This means you will need to have a valid full UK Driving License prior to application. This will be verified at your assessment centre should you be successful.
Our training programmes are designed to give you the confidence, skill and technical knowledge needed to become an authorised Project Supervisor within National Grid at the end of the training programme. This is a role for someone who likes to be outside in all weathers and interacting with people as much as possible. You’ll be building your skills from day one; finding out how things work, liaising with stakeholders, and learning from a variety of enthusiastic, dedicated colleagues. You’ll be overseeing construction activities such as cable pulling, battery energy storage systems, toolbox talks, and visits to fascinating sites, ranging from the London Power Tunnels to Snowdonia’s Electric Mountain.
The classroom training is typically based at our training centre in Eakring, Nottinghamshire, so you will be required to spend time away from home for a portion of the scheme and the role itself requires driving to different sites across the region.
The starting date for this role is the 15th April 2025, all applicants must be able to commit to this start date. Applications will close on 04th of November and successful applicants will be contacted to progress to Teams Online Interviews throughout November/December 2024. Following this a face-to-face Assessment Centre would be held in the Northern region on the 14th & 15th January 2025. All applicants must be able to commit to attending this Assessment Centre date should they be successful in the initial recruitment stages.
