Your Qualifications

  • A relevant university degree in Electrical Power Engineering, Applied Physics, or Mathematics, with experience in electrical network modeling;
  • Ability to manage uncertainties and develop frameworks for estimation, engaging in discussions to refine these frameworks;

  • In-depth knowledge of the transmission system and experience in conducting power system studies;
  • Expertise in performing power flow and RMS-type calculations;
  • Strong communication skills, capable of engaging colleagues and persuading stakeholders with well-founded arguments;
  • Proactive approach with excellent stakeholder management skills;
  • Fluency in both Dutch and English, with exceptional writing abilities.
