Supporting gas networks through investment and transformation

RIIO-3 is bringing a new period of investment across Great Britain's gas distribution and transmission networks from 2026 to 2031. Alongside maintaining safe, reliable day-to-day operations, organisations are investing in asset renewal, network resilience, digital capability and infrastructure that can respond to changing energy requirements.

Rullion brings decades of workforce experience across Energy, Utilities and other regulated, safety-critical infrastructure markets. Many of the engineering, asset, project, commercial, digital and technical disciplines Gas organisations need also exist across Water, Nuclear and major infrastructure, giving us broader specialist networks and the ability to identify relevant transferable capability.



Our gas recruitment capability supports distribution, transmission and associated network infrastructure, spanning operations and maintenance, asset management, engineering, project delivery, construction and commissioning. We also support the digital and business capabilities behind modern network operations, including data, cybersecurity, systems and transformation.

Beyond individual recruitment, we help organisations plan, mobilise and manage workforce capability through talent pipeline development, contingent workforce management and wider workforce solutions, supporting both RIIO-3 delivery and longer-term network requirements.

How we work

Building capability across gas networks

Gas organisations need to maintain safe, reliable operations while delivering RIIO-3 investment, renewing assets and preparing networks for future energy requirements. We help clients access, develop, mobilise and manage the workforce capability needed across both day-to-day operations and long-term change.

Delivering RIIO-3 investment and asset renewal

Network investment brings requirements across engineering, project delivery, planning, commercial, construction and commissioning disciplines. We help organisations build and mobilise capability around asset renewal, network upgrades and infrastructure programmes as delivery requirements change.

Widening access to engineering capability

Many of the skills gas organisations need are shared across energy, water, nuclear and wider infrastructure. Our cross-sector networks help employers identify mechanical, electrical, asset, project and technical capability beyond the traditional gas talent pool, creating more options than simply competing for the same experienced specialists.

Protecting knowledge and building future skills

Experienced engineers and technical specialists hold critical knowledge about network assets and operations. We help organisations think beyond succession by developing sustainable talent pipelines, identifying transferable skills and creating new routes into network engineering and associated disciplines.

Digital, data and asset transformation

Digital capability is increasingly central to how gas infrastructure is monitored, managed and maintained. We support requirements across data, cybersecurity, ERP, business analysis and transformation alongside engineering and asset management, helping organisations strengthen both operational resilience and future network capability.

Maintaining operations while programmes scale
