Job involves working across 130 projects in England and Wales

Balfour Beatty, Morgan Sindall and Murphy have all won places on a new £8bn regional delivery framework to deliver around 130 electricity substation projects across England and Wales by 2031 for National Grid.

Called the Electricity Transmission Partnership, others on the framework include M Group and a pairing between Omexom and Taylor Woodrow. Linxon and Burns & McDonnell have been named as nationwide partners.

National Grid said the partnership “moves to a longer term collaborative approach that builds strong regional partnerships and rewards partners for high quality performance over time”.
