Collaborating closely with contractors, site teams, and our Regional Support Team, you’ll drive safety, optimize revenue-based availability, and maintain cost efficiency.

In this role, you’ll be a technical authority under Vattenfall’s Safe Systems of Work for high and low-voltage systems, leading and coordinating electrical work activities with precision. You'll act as a role model, prioritizing safety, planning, and excellence in execution to support our strategic objectives.

  • Optimize Resources: Plan, prioritize, and allocate resources effectively to maximize safety, revenue-based availability, and cost-efficiency.
  • Technical Support: Collaborate with our VEFK, HV Control Center, and troubleshooters to resolve technical issues and ensure compliance with internal and external standards.
  • Documentation and Compliance: Oversee and review safety documentation (e.g., RAMS), ensure compliance with VDE, DGUV, and handle work orders through SAP.
  • Stakeholder Management: Act as the bridge between on-site teams, contractors, and internal departments, ensuring effective communication and seamless collaboration.
  • Continuous Improvement: Support the scoping, development, and procurement of services while driving optimizations in electrical operations.
