Working at Cadent

Hi, we're Cadent! You might have seen us working in your community and spotted our vans driving around.

There are some things in life you just need to work, without thinking about it, without any hassle.

Underneath your feet run 200 years of innovation; a pipe network connecting 12 million homes and businesses, an invisible commitment to meet your energy needs, today and tomorrow. It's our responsibility to look after your gas pipes so you can get safe, reliable and low carbon energy now and for years to come.

Did you know that we manage 82,000 miles of gas pipes? Placed end to end that would stretch more than three times around the world!

We are a dedicated team of skilled professionals, delivering gas safely to you and responding quickly when you need us the most.

We hope to inspire you to join us and be part of our 6,000 strong team working across four gas networks. We'd love to hear from you, so don't forget to check out our latest vacancies.

We want to make sure our colleagues represent the people and the communities we serve.

We look to build equality, diversity and inclusion in everything we do; we celebrate what we have in common and what makes us different as part of an open and honest culture.

Our Employee Community Groups, Community Partnerships and Learning and Development Programmes help us create successful teams in a diverse and inclusive environment.
