Shape the future of Data at Cadent
We’re looking for a Data Engineering Specialist to help us deliver on our ambition to become a truly data-driven business. This is more than a technical role – it’s your opportunity to shape how we capture, connect, and use data across one of the UK’s most vital utility networks.
At Cadent, we’re not just moving gas. We’re enabling the future of energy – safely, sustainably, and intelligently. That journey starts with data. From regulatory reporting to real-time operational insights, the way we manage, model and move data has a direct impact on our people, our performance, and our customers.

Working in high-performing teams, you’ll build high-quality, enterprise-level data models and pipelines using SAP Datasphere, Databricks, and other cutting-edge tools. Your work will underpin analytics, dashboards, and innovations in AI and machine learning and ultimately help us make better decisions, faster.
We’re building something powerful. Come and help us make it real.
