Unconfirmed. National Gas publishes no sponsorship policy for its 18 month graduate programmes in asset, finance, technology, cyber, commercial, construction and system operations, so we cannot state a firm answer. National Gas owns and operates the gas transmission network. Its graduate programmes run 18 months as three six month placements and are offered in seven streams. Asset covers managing and maintaining transmission assets. Finance leads to a CIMA or ACCA qualification. Technology spans system development and infrastructure management with professional certifications. Cyber covers protecting critical energy infrastructure. Commercial covers regulation and market strategy alongside hydrogen and carbon capture projects. Construction covers design development, project management and construction execution on hydrogen and carbon transportation. System Operations places graduates across System Capability and Risk, Markets or Commercial Operations plus a broadening placement elsewhere. A cover letter is mandatory. No salary figure and no sponsorship position are published.
