National Gas has an exciting and important role in net zero and in leading a fair energy transition for the UK. We will do this by developing the green gas system of tomorrow, while delivering the natural gas needs of today.
About the role:
We're seeking a Mechanical/Chemical Engineer to play a crucial role in managing asset modifications and ensuring system integrity. In this position, you'll progress modifications to closure, review integrity data, and close out low-risk modifications, all while driving awareness and maintaining the health of the change management system.
Your role will involve collaborating with delivery teams to advance modifications, holding sessions to guide stakeholders through processes, and providing technical advice to initiators. You’ll also review submitted integrity information, resolve overdue or stalled modifications, and ensure system updates align with authorised personnel. A key part of your work will include supporting system administrators and driving continuous improvements to the change management system and processes.
If you’re an organised and proactive professional with a passion for technical excellence and process optimisation, we’d love to hear from you. Join us in ensuring operational integrity and driving change management success.

- Experience in process or mechanical design
- Awareness of integrity risks
- Full UK car driving licence
