Supplier Relationship Management

Identify critical suppliers and create appropriate engagement plans to ensure our Supply Chain risk profile and inputs to continuous improvement are proactively managed.

Systems & Analytics

Adapt to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems such as SAP, Tableau, Ariba, and Spend Analytics

Work authorization that does not now or in the future require sponsorship of a visa for employment authorization in the United States (such as sponsorship for an H-1B, TN, O, L, STEM OPT, or other employment-based work authorization)

It would be awesome if you had

Experience with SAP, Ariba, Tableau, Spend Analytics, or other business, procurement, or reporting systems.
Experience with strategic sourcing, contract negotiation, category management, or project management through coursework, internships, student organizations, or other leadership experiences.
Familiarity with software development processes, networks, data and process flows, or other technology concepts that support procurement and supplier engagements.

About the Graduate Development Program

National Grid’s Graduate Development Program (GDP) is a year-long development program for recent college graduates who aspire to take on future leadership roles in a dynamic, ever-changing industry. Graduates will shape the future of National Grid. Bringing fresh thinking, new perspectives, and exploring with energy, we’ll give you real responsibility and an opportunity to move with purpose from day one – putting the power to supercharge your career in your hands.

Graduates start their careers at National Grid with an in-depth 3-week in-person Orientation which gives you exposure to all parts of the company, allows you to network with your Graduate cohort, GDP alumni, and senior leaders, and provides you with the opportunity to travel throughout our service territory in the northeast US. Following Orientation, you’ll begin working in the full-time position outlined below and take part in robust in-person and virtual development activities throughout the year. This includes monthly development sessions, active mentorship, and an intensive and immersive “Hackathon Project” where you “hack” a real-world National Grid problem.

Procurement Rotations

Graduates in our Procurement teams will take part in a rotational exploration opportunity. Your first year will be in the role outlined below, following your first year you will have the opportunity to have one 9-month rotation in Procurement designed to provide you with a breadth of experience within your functional area and accelerate your progression at National Grid. This placement will provide you with the opportunity to solve complex problems and focus on growth that will transform the energy sector as we know it.

About National Grid

National Grid is the critical energy infrastructure company, operating the electricity and gas networks and infrastructures that connects millions of people to the energy they use every day, supporting homes, businesses and communities across Massachusetts and New York.

We know the future of energy won't be shaped by what we know today. It will be shaped by what's possible tomorrow. That's why we're investing in the next generation of talent, giving undergraduates and graduates the opportunity to learn from experts, gain hands-on experience and contribute to work that matters from day one.

Are you ready to unlock the power of the possible?
