Scada Engineer

Join Us in Accelerating the Energy Transition

We want to accelerate the energy transition. With our ambitious ‘One Planet Plan’, we have made it clear that by 2035, we aim to be the first energy company to become CO2-neutral. No more reliance on natural gas! The entire Netherlands is making the switch towards smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable energy. Everyone has their own reasons for doing so. Some want to contribute to a better climate, others switch because their neighbors are doing it, or because they find joy in saving energy, and we're doing it now!

Our Assets department is at the heart of change due to the growth of renewable energy, the need for flexibility to enable system integration of renewable energy sources, and regulatory changes. This rapid growth also calls for more support and expansion of our team, and that’s where you come in!
