“We are in a very exciting phase in Vattenfall and the energy industry at the moment. The energy transition is already well under way and we need to build up new competencies and recruit new talent to help us achieve our ambitious goals,” said Lamin Faye, Head of HR & HSE for Business Area Wind.
Vattenfall is especially looking for specialists in areas like Commercial, Engineering, Project Management or Site Operations.
“Vattenfall has over 100 years of experience in the energy business and is at the forefront in Europe’s energy transition into renewables, especially in offshore wind,” added Faye. “We offer an exciting work place where people can contribute to building the future energy landscape and we know that great people make all the difference.”
