Welcome to Upplands Energi, a company with the vision of being the obvious energy partner for the people of Uppland. Founded in 1918, Upplands Energi offers energy products and electricity sales to private individuals and businesses throughout Uppland. The company's power grid covers half of Uppsala as well as parts of Heby and Östhammar municipalities. Upplands Energi operates in your immediate vicinity and is passionate about the local community – we support associations and organizations with local civic engagement.

About the Role
Do you want to help develop the future power grid into a modern network with high delivery security and efficiency? Apply now and become part of Upplands Energi's continued journey!
The power grid industry is facing its biggest change in decades. Electrification, increased power demands, and new requirements for flexibility are changing how future power grids need to be planned and operated.
As a Grid Planner (Beredare) within Power Grids, you will play a key role in shaping and developing the future distribution network. You work closely with operations, preparing, designing, and driving the development of the grid based on investment plans, new connections, and strategic maintenance. There is also an opportunity to broaden your competence further by joining the emergency organization as a grid operations manager.
The role is varied with significant responsibility, where you independently drive your work forward with a focus on quality and efficiency. With short decision-making paths, close collaboration, and a strong technical focus, you will have the opportunity to influence both working methods and the development of the future power grid. The role includes creating safety plans, construction documents, conducting field visits, handling permit processes, building permits, and cable agreements. You also work with design, grid calculations, and documentation – all to ensure sustainable and well-functioning solutions.
