Sitting at the heart of the communities we serve, we’re leading the transformation towards a greener future, dreaming bigger to bring a more affordable energy future to everyone.

If you're ready for a new challenge, there's never been a more exciting time to work in energy and we’re looking for passionate people to help build a cleaner, greener future for all.

Because when we all bring our best, we stay Superpowered.

We're at the heart of the energy sector

As an energy company at the heart of the UK and US sectors, we deliver electricity and gas safely, reliably and efficiently to the communities we serve — all while accelerating the shift to a clean energy future.

Keeping millions connected is only part of our mission. We use our technical expertise, innovative thinking and passion for progress to lead a sustainable transformation — for the sector and for society.

In the UK, we own, maintain and develop the high voltage electricity transmission network in England and Wales, and manage electricity distribution for customers across the Midlands, South West and Wales.

In the US, we serve more than 20 million people with electricity, natural gas and clean energy through our networks in New York and Massachusetts.

Driving innovation across the energy transition

Our Ventures team helps advance the energy transition at scale - operating across the UK, Europe and US to develop, invest in and run large-scale clean energy infrastructure projects.

Whilst our Partners team exists to disrupt convention and build the systems of tomorrow. From incubating startups to backing breakthrough technologies at the intersection of energy and emerging tech, we’re driving innovation from the inside out.

Our energy flows through absolutely everything we do

Life here at National Grid is more than just our purpose or our values, it’s everything we put into everything we do. It’s our commitment to diversity and inclusion; how we help our employees learn and grow; and how we partner with and support the communities where we live and work. It’s all this, and so much more.

We leverage our collective strengths to do meaningful BIG work so that we can be at the heart of a clean, fair and affordable energy future.

Community

Putting our energy where it matters

We believe our responsibility to communities goes beyond delivering energy. It’s an opportunity to strengthen neighborhoods, foster stability and growth, and inspire change. 

What is Grid for Good?

National Grid helps provide energy to underserved communities, creates opportunities for the youth and ensures safe, reliable energy amidst nature’s challenges.

We cannot achieve this without the help of our local schools, nonprofits, and leaders. Grid for Good is our responsibility in action.
