Control & Cyber Lifecycle Engineer

At National Grid, we keep people connected and society moving. But it’s so much more than that. National Grid supplies us with the environment to make it happen. As we generate momentum in the energy transition for all, we don’t plan on leaving any of our customers in the dark. So, join us as a Control & Cyber Lifecycle Engineer and find your superpower.

National Grid is recruiting an Control & Cyber Lifecycle Engineer - This position can be based from our Warwick, Leeds, London, Bristol or Derby offices. Offering a flexible hybrid working model.

Job Purpose

National Grid is transforming the way we manage control systems and cyber security across our transmission network.

As a Control & Cyber Lifecycle Engineer, you'll help shape the future of substation automation, protection and control systems, and operational technology (OT) cyber security. Working within the Control & Cyber Lifecycle team, you'll support the development of technical standards, asset strategies and future technology roadmaps that ensure our network remains safe, secure and resilient.

This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer with experience in either Protection & Control or OT Cyber Security who is looking to broaden their expertise and develop a deeper understanding of both disciplines.

What you'll do

Support the lifecycle management of substation control, protection and OT cyber assets.
Contribute to the development and maintenance of engineering standards, technical specifications and guidance documents.
Work with internal stakeholders, suppliers and industry partners to identify and assess new technologies and solutions.
Support technical assurance and Type Registration activities for new and existing asset types.
Contribute to the development of asset strategies and technology roadmaps.
Analyse asset performance, risk and lifecycle information to support investment and replacement decisions.
Support the delivery of cyber security requirements within operational technology environments.
Contribute to digital substation and network modernisation initiatives.
Provide technical advice and support to engineering, project and operational teams.

About you

We're looking for a motivated engineer who enjoys solving technical problems, influencing future engineering decisions, and working collaboratively across multiple disciplines.

You will have:

A degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Control Systems, Cyber Security, or a related discipline, or equivalent industry experience.
Experience working within electricity transmission, distribution, or critical infrastructure environments (e.g. water, gas, rail).
Membership of, or a desire to work towards membership of, a relevant professional institution.
Experience in one or both of the following areas:
- Protection and Control Engineering.
- Operational Technology (OT) Cyber Security, including knowledge of OT cyber security standards and frameworks such as IEC 62443 and IEC 62351.
An understanding of engineering asset management and lifecycle principles.
The ability to analyse technical information and make evidence-based recommendations.
Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
A proactive approach to learning, continuous improvement, and collaborative working.

Experience in one or more of the following areas would be advantageous:

Knowledge of substation automation and digital substation technologies, including IEC 61850.
Experience of Operational Technology (OT), Industrial Control Systems (ICS), or SCADA environments.
Asset lifecycle management within a regulated industry.
Technology assurance, equipment qualification, or Type Registration processes.
HVDC, FACTS, or other advanced power system technologies.
Data-driven asset management and performance analysis.

We recognise that candidates may come from either a Protection & Control background or an OT Cyber Security background. We do not expect applicants to be specialists in both disciplines from day one.
If you have experience in one area and an interest in developing expertise in the other, we'd encourage you to apply.

What you'll get

A competitive salary around £55,000 - £65,000 – dependent on capability

As well as your base salary, you will receive a bonus based on personal and company performance and a competitive contributory pension scheme where we will double match your contribution to a maximum company contribution of 12%. You will also have access to a number of flexible benefits such as a share incentive plan, salary sacrifice car and technology schemes, support via employee assistance lines and matched charity giving to name a few.

The closing date for this vacancy is 18th August. However, we encourage candidates to submit their applications as early as possible and not to wait until the published closing date. National Grid’s recruitment periods can and may vary. We reserve the right to remove this advert or close it to further applications at any point during the recruitment process.
