Full job description

We’re champions of the North West and we’re proud that it’s our electricity network that connects communities and helps keep the electricity flowing every minute of every day, from when you wake up to when you fall asleep and all the hours in between.

A key part of the UK’s journey to net zero carbon is the revolution of our electricity industry to enable clean, green economic growth. As the North West’s electricity network operator, it’s our responsibility to lead the way, help the region decarbonise and pave the way for the growth of renewable energy and a sustainable energy future for all.

We’re proud that in December 2024 we were named Utility of the Year by Utility Week magazine who said we punched above our weight and used innovation to solve some of the industry’s most difficult challenges. Come and be part of our team and make a difference.

Together we have the energy to transform our communities. We are switched on. We are adaptable. We take pride.

Our Role

As the Project Planner you will support project managers in the delivery of customer schemes, by providing expert planning advice and programme controls.

The role ensures that new demand and generation connections are initiated, baselined, and delivered within agreed timescales, customer expectations, and internal governance. It provides Project Managers with the tools, insight, and guidance needed to make informed delivery decisions, while aligning programmes with supplier frameworks, contractual arrangements, and regulatory requirements.

The successful candidate must, at the start of employment have permission to work in the UK without sponsorship.

This role could be based at either our Preston or Carlisle offices.

Proven experience in programme planning/project controls within electricity networks or related infrastructure
Strong proficiency with Primavera P6 and MS Project
Experience of integrating schedule and cost data to produce standardised reporting and spend forecasts
Commercial awareness and ability to align and assess programmes against supplier frameworks and delivery agreements
Strong communication skills, able to translate complex programme data into clear advice for project managers and customers
Ability to balance technical detail with customer-facing communication
Knowledge of NEC contracts desirable, with potential for this to become a future requirement

What we're offering

As a vital team member and in return for your expertise, inclusive approach and commitment, we'll provide a favourable salary and the chance to join a passionate and welcoming team. We are committed to ensuring our people are supported and are proud of our reward and benefits offer, which includes:

An annual bonus scheme
25 days annual leave increasing with length of service
Private Healthcare
An employee rewards portal offering discounts on several well-known brands
A market-leading contributory pension scheme
Employee assistance programme
Opportunity for professional development through our L&D function.

Our people are important to us and we’re passionate about creating a great place to work where we can all be ourselves, reach our full potential and build long lasting careers. We’re striving to increase diversity of thought and talent in our people and to recruit highly skilled workforce that’s representative of the communities we serve. For us, embracing our differences is what makes us stronger.

Should you require any additional support with your application, or any adjustments please contact our Recruitment team at [email protected] or on 0845 366 0092 (option 2)
