Do you want to be part of the ongoing energy transition?
Do you want to be part of the ongoing energy transition and contribute to a more sustainable society and future? Are you passionate about technology and want the opportunity to work with perhaps Sweden's most important infrastructure? Then our trainee program is for you!
About the position
As a trainee, you will receive internal introductory training with theory and practice for approximately 1 year. The training will primarily take place at our headquarters in Sundbyberg and partly at our facilities, in collaboration with one of our sister units. During the trainee program, study trips and some training will take place in other locations. During your training, you will gain a broad understanding of how the operation of Sweden's transmission network is managed through exchanges and practical experience both internally and with other external actors. You will also have the chance to build a large network and develop together with other trainees at Svenska kraftnät.
Here you will have the opportunity to gain solid knowledge about the structure of the transmission network, electrical safety, and how operational management works, while also getting an insight into the many activities that the unit collaborates with. If you want to be at the center of the energy transition while developing your electrical engineering skills and experience, this job is made for you! Here you will have the opportunity to create a good platform for further development within the unit, the Operations department, or further within Svenska kraftnät.
After completing the training and obtaining certification, you will work as a system engineer and belong to the Operations Planning unit, which is responsible for planning and coordinating outages as well as electrical safety preparations for electrical work on the transmission network's facilities. Planning is done in collaboration with maintenance contractors and Svenska kraftnät's customers who use the transmission network for electricity transfer, such as regional networks and electricity producers. As a system engineer, you will work with short-term outage planning and operational planning of electrical work near and with voltage. You will plan and establish written templates for connections in the power grid (operational orders) and work with detailed planning and prioritization of outages and electrical work during the current and upcoming two weeks.
