The way we manage energy is going through massive change. Our customers' desire for more information, more control and faster management means that we want to hear from future digital leaders.

When a home is connected to a SMART metre, if you turn on a light switch - or ask Alexa to do it - a new piece of data is created. Multiply that by the millions of customers that we serve and you'll appreciate the amount of information created. Our future depends on what we do with that data. And as a Digital and IT Leader, you'll help shape the future by deciding how energy data is managed and put to use.

Even though you'll specialise in Digital and IT, you'll still come away with a 360-degree understanding of our company. And, one of the largest energy suppliers in the Europe, there'll be an option of taking an international placement to boost your valuable real-world work experience.

  • Understanding type of threats corporate organisation should be aware of
  • Understanding typical risk and mitigation approaches
