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.

In IT & D, we're working at the heart of change and harnessing the power of technology to build a cleaner, fairer, and more affordable future for all. Innovation is providing our edge in finding a better way for everyone. In fact, we like to think of ourselves as a band of unsung heroes. Our IT Graduate Development Rotational Program will provide you with the opportunity to be at the heart of this transformation. The program consists of an 18-month exploration consisting of three 6-month rotations in varying IT & Digital departments. Your rst rotation will be in the role outlined below and you will return to this role following two broadening 6-month rotations where you will solve complex problems and focus on growth that will transform the energy sector as we know it.

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.
