About us
At National Gas, the work we do matters.
As Britain's national gas network, we help keep the lights on, businesses running, and homes warm by maintaining the critical infrastructure that transports gas across Great Britain. While providing the energy security Britain relies on today, we're also helping transform the network for a clean energy future.
Join us and help secure Britain's energy.
About the role
We're looking for a Meter Assurance Officer to join our Energy Balancing team. You'll play a key role in ensuring the accuracy and integrity of gas metering data across the National Transmission System, helping to minimise Unaccounted for Gas (UAG) and support the efficient operation of the gas market.
Accurate gas metering is critical to the safe, efficient and commercial operation of the gas transmission network. This role provides the analysis, investigation and assurance activities that help maintain confidence in settlement and billing data, while identifying opportunities to reduce gas losses and improve network performance.
Working closely with customers, meter asset owners, industry participants and internal stakeholders, you'll investigate metering issues, support reconciliation activities and use data-driven insights to influence operational and commercial decisions. You'll also contribute to the ongoing development of Energy Balancing arrangements as National Gas supports the transition to a net zero energy system.
What you'll be doing
- Investigating metering anomalies and Unaccounted for Gas (UAG) to identify potential sources of measurement error and gas losses.
- Undertaking meter assurance and witnessing activities, producing reports and recommendations to improve metering accuracy.
- Supporting meter reconciliation activities, ensuring identified metering errors are accurately quantified and resolved.
- Producing analysis and reporting to identify trends, support forecasting activities and provide meaningful business insight.
- Developing and improving analytical processes, reporting tools, visualisations and forecasting methodologies.
- Building effective relationships with customers, asset managers, meter owners and other stakeholders to resolve issues and drive corrective actions.
- Contributing to industry change initiatives, process improvements and the evolution of Energy Balancing arrangements.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
