Be Part of the UK's Low-Carbon Energy Revolution
Are you a Process Engineer with expertise in modelling, flow assurance, or a deep technical understanding of CO₂ and hydrogen at high pressure? Do you want to work on cutting-edge infrastructure projects that are leading the way in energy transition?
We’re recruiting on behalf of an innovative engineering company owned by National Gas, operating within its unregulated business arm. This offers a rare opportunity to work not just with National Gas, but also with gas distribution networks (SGN, NGN, Cadent, WWU) and leading energy developers across the UK.
Sites in Leicester, Ruddington and Warrington.
The Opportunity:
As a Process Engineer, you’ll be part of a team developing and delivering complex, future-ready gas infrastructure projects. Your role will focus on:
Process modelling and simulation for hydrogen and CO₂ systems
Flow assurance and performance optimisation in high-pressure pipeline and plant environments
Providing process input across design, FEED, and commissioning phases
Supporting safety studies, including HAZOPs, FPSAs, and risk assessments
Offering subject matter expertise on novel gas behaviours under varying pressure, temperature, and phase conditions
Projects You Could Support:
Project Union – Repurposing segments of the UK’s transmission system to carry 100% hydrogen
Project Acorn – Delivering the SCO2T Connect pipeline for high-pressure CO₂ transportation and long-term carbon storage
Contributions to RIIO2 and RIIO3 programmes, with confirmed work through RIIO3 and input into the RIIO4 strategy (2021–2036)
Ideal Background:
Degree in Chemical/Process Engineering or equivalent
Strong experience in process modelling tools (e.g., HYSYS, Aspen, OLGA, Pipesim)
Knowledge of flow assurance, particularly involving CO₂ and hydrogen at high pressures
Understanding of multiphase flow, transient behaviour, and gas thermodynamics
A collaborative mindset with the confidence to challenge and innovate in a safety-led environment
Why Join?
Work on pioneering energy projects that directly support UK Net Zero targets
Engage with regulated and unregulated markets across diverse client portfolios
Be part of a technically excellent team shaping the future of gas transmission and distribution
Enjoy flexible working and opportunities for growth across a guaranteed long-term project pipeline
