We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it.

As part of Centrica’s new transformation, you have an opportunity to play your part - Our Operational Technology keeps energy moving safely and reliably — and this role plays a vital part in protecting it. As an OT Analyst/Technician, you’ll provide hands-on support across our OT cybersecurity and resilience activities, ensuring that industrial control systems remain secure, compliant and operationally robust.

You’ll work closely with engineers, cybersecurity specialists, and external partners to monitor OT environments, support incident response, maintain asset and patch records, and contribute to risk, compliance and audit activities. The role also supports the ongoing improvement of our OT controls, processes and tooling, making use of data-driven and automated capabilities to streamline routine tasks and enhance the quality and speed of delivery.

This is a technically focused role with real operational impact, offering the opportunity to build deep OT expertise while contributing directly to the safe, secure and continuous delivery of energy to millions.

Location: UK-based hybrid role, Occasional travel to site.

  • Contribute to OT risk, compliance, and audit activities, including risk reviews, penetration testing, regulatory evidence preparation, and validation of remediation actions against standards such as NIS and ISO 27001.
  • Maintain accurate OT asset, patch, backup, and recovery records, validating third-party activities and ensuring systems remain resilient, recoverable, and compliant with Centrica security standards.
  • Implement and support secure OT connectivity, including network configurations and vendor remote access, monitoring sessions, escalating anomalies, and supporting vendor assessments.

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.
