The Strategic Demand Director leads National Grid’s strategic demand and AIGZ agenda end-to-end, acting as the senior point of coordination between external stakeholders and internal National Grid Electricity Transmission (NGET) teams. Externally, the role shapes and influences the policy, regulatory, and stakeholder environment (including working with Government departments, customers, and industry bodies) to accelerate outcomes. Internally, the role convenes and coordinates across the ET business to align strategy, governance, prioritisation, and delivery, and provides executive-level insight, briefings, and recommendations to senior leaders—translating complex technical, regulatory and delivery issues into clear options, decisions, and measurable portfolio outcomes.
