• Contribute to the development of long-term operating strategies supporting network resilience and control capabilities
• Support policy development, fault reporting, and strategic planning initiatives that underpin operation of the network and drive continuous improvement across System Operations
  
  

What You Will Need

• A strong interest in gas network operations, ideally with some understanding of Above 7bar systems and how they are planned, controlled and maintained
• Ability to interpret network analysis and assess the operational impact of maintenance, construction, and emergency activities on the LTS and Control Room operations
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the confidence to liaise across departments and with external partners.
• A proactive mindset and strategic thinking skills.
• A collaborative approach and willingness to learn in a fast-paced, safety-critical environment
