About Us

National Gas is securing Britain’s energy. We transport gas throughout Great Britain, repair and maintain gas pipelines, and manage the meters that allow millions of homes and businesses to access the energy they need. We are the national gas network, providing secure energy to power Britain, achieve net zero, and maintain our industrial competitiveness.

About The Role

As we deliver the next generation of gas and low‑carbon infrastructure, strong, trusted digital foundations are critical. We’re looking for an experienced Digital Lead to shape how digital data, models and systems support our New Molecules capital programmes, from concept through construction and into long‑term asset management.

This is a pivotal role for someone who thrives at the intersection of BIM, GIS, asset management and digital transformation, and who wants to influence how complex national infrastructure programmes are delivered. You’ll ensure high‑quality data, compliance with industry standards, and seamless integration between BIM, GIS and enterprise systems, enabling better decisions, safer delivery and long‑term asset value.

Working closely with engineering, asset management, GIS and Technology teams, you’ll act as a SME and trusted adviser, embedding consistent digital ways of working across major programmes.

Leading the development and management of BIM models to support the design, construction and operation of gas and new molecules infrastructure.
Defining and delivering digital requirements across programmes, including BIM, GIS, Common Data Environments and reporting solutions.

Coaching, mentoring and assuring junior team members, building long‑term digital capability within the organisation.
Keeping pace with emerging BIM and digital technologies and driving continuous improvement.
