Would you like to have focus on technical aspects, complex calculations and be part of building cable connections across all our offshore wind farms?

Join us and become Cable Specialist in our High Voltage Cable Specialists department where you’ll evaluate the technical quality and compliance of 33-400kV offshore and onshore cable connections and perform calculations within ampacity, induced voltages, etc. You’ll be involved in all engineering phases, from research and development to operations and maintenance, related to our complete range of onshore and offshore cable systems.

You’ll be part of a department of highly skilled cable specialists focussing only on cable technology and onshore cable installation methods. The department is part of all offshore projects within the organisation, and you’ll therefore contribute to all projects with specialist knowledge on array and export cable technology, thermal and electrical analysis, etc.

Your key tasks will be to

• perform ad-hoc support on cable-related issues to projects in development, execution and operation
• ensure technical quality of your assigned projects, by analysing non-conformities and creating lessons learnt in the organisation
• support the tender team to evaluate the technical compliance of the various cable suppliers in terms of testing, design, accessories and termination work as well as supporting the development of technical levers for optimising costs and time schedules on our projects in execution
• assist our existing wind farms in securing high availability on all assets.

Your competences include that you

• have a master’s degree in electrical engineering or similar
• have a proactive and systematic approach to the technical tasks across the department
• have a high focus on ensuring that all your stakeholders are always managed
• speak and write English fluently.

It’s an advantage if you have knowledge of HV cables or work with HV cables from your present (or former) employment; however it’s not a requirement, as we will teach you what you need to know!

You thrive in an international environment and are able to create good relationships with your stakeholders. You’re independent and a strong initiator with the ability to contribute to challenging issues within a complex matrix organisation.
