About This Job

Find your superpower with the Graduate Development Program

National Grid’s Graduate Development Program (GDP) is a year-long development program for recent college graduates who aspire to take on future leadership roles in a dynamic, ever-changing industry. Graduates will shape the future of National Grid. Bringing fresh thinking, new perspectives, and exploring with energy, we’ll give you real responsibility and an opportunity to move with purpose from day one – putting the power to supercharge your career in your hands.

Graduates start their careers at National Grid with an in-depth 3-week in-person Orientation which gives you exposure to all parts of the company, allows you to network with your Graduate cohort, GDP alumni, and senior leaders, and provides you with the opportunity to travel throughout our service territory in the northeast US. Following Orientation, you’ll begin working in full-time position outlined below and take part in ongoing development activities including quarterly development sessions, active mentorship, and a Hackathon Project.


Group Function Rotations

Graduates in our Finance teams will take part in a 12-month exploration. Your first 6 months will be in the role outlined below and you will return to this role following a broadening 6-month placement designed to provide you with a breadth of experience within your functional area and accelerate your progression at National Grid. This placement will provide you with the opportunity to solve complex problems and focus on growth that will transform the energy sector as we know it.


About the Position

As an Associate Finance Business Partner, you’ll join a high-performing team supporting financial planning and reporting for National Grid’s Global IT & Digital organization and Group Functions.

This is a hybrid role with 2 days of work in the Waltham, Massachusetts office per week (flexible depending on meetings, trainings, etc.).


What You’ll Do

You’ll accelerate your learning and understanding of how to influence a business from a financial perspective. This is a fantastic development opportunity to learn how to consult with the business and stakeholders, work towards specific goals, and flex your critical and strategic thinking skills! Here’s what you’ll be up to:

- Financial Metrics & Reporting: Support key financial metrics and reporting for Global IT & Digital and Group Functions, including analyzing results and developing business commentary and ad hoc analyses.

- Collaborate & Challenge: Work with Finance Business Partners to develop, drive, and challenge business assumptions that are critical to stakeholders regarding short-term results and long-term strategy.

- Allocation Analysis: Analyze and ensure proper allocations to National Grid operating companies and business units in the US and UK, using trend analysis and comparisons to budget and forecasted allocations.

- Global Collaboration: Partner with peers across US, UK, and Global FP&A teams to foster an inclusive and collaborative team environment.

- Dynamic Team Contribution: Contribute to a fast-paced, dynamic team that balances the needs of multiple stakeholder groups.


What You’ll Need

- Bachelor or Master’s degree from an accredited institution preferably in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field.

- Graduated between May 2025 and June 2026

- Ability to begin the National Grid Graduate Program on June 8, 2026, or July 13, 2026

- Valid driver’s license required with a safe driving history that meets National Grid’s Safe Driver policy
