Are you ready to join us on this exciting journey? Ellevio is one of Sweden's largest energy companies, and together we continue to electrify Sweden. With us, you become part of a secure and vital future industry, while having the opportunity to make a difference, grow as an individual, and have real fun along the way! We believe in a bright and sustainable future – do you?
We are now looking for an engaged Operations Control Engineer for our control center.
About the role of Operations Control Engineer
Our control center is the heart of our operations, ensuring around the clock that electricity flows into the homes of our 970,000 customers every day. As an Operations Control Engineer at Ellevio, you work at one of Sweden's largest control centers. You will have the opportunity to work in a modern environment focused on development, while being a key part of the work managing parts of Sweden's infrastructure.
The electricity industry is undergoing exciting developments, where customers take a more active role and collaboration with renewable production, storage solutions, and flexibility becomes increasingly important. The power grid is crucial in this change, and operations are central. As an Operations Control Engineer, you will have a varied daily routine where you collaborate and solve challenges with internal colleagues as well as external contractors. In this role, you will work with planned work, monitoring, operations, and fault clearance in Ellevio's power grid. You will also be part of our operational support team, which supports the operational activities. The support team also handles business development, capacity challenges, proactive analysis, and monitoring of grid flows, etc.
Shift work is an option for those who wish in this position.
"The best thing about working in the control center is that I feel I am truly contributing to society. There is a lot of exciting activity in the industry right now, and it is fun to be part of the transition towards a more sustainable society. No day in the control center is like the other, and you never get bored at work."
– Linnea Gustafsson, Operations Control Engineer

Who we are looking for
We place great emphasis on your personal qualities in this recruitment. Since the role involves many contact surfaces, both externally and internally, you need to enjoy collaborating while also being confident working independently. You build trust and do not hesitate to take on challenges. In your communication, you spread both energy and optimism. Your problem-solving skills are a great asset in our dynamic team, where challenges can arise quickly. Structure and an eye for detail are important for you to thrive in this role.
We are looking for someone who:
- Has a secondary or post-secondary education with a technical focus (preferably in electrical power engineering, energy and environment, or electronics) and some years of relevant work experience.
- Has worked with systems for monitoring and controlling processes. We believe this competence facilitates understanding the business, but you can also learn and develop within the area in the role.
- Can express yourself fluently in spoken and written Swedish.
Meritorious:
- Knowledge of electricity production, transmission, distribution, or energy flows.

Only then can we together reach our vision of a bright and sustainable future. With us, you have great opportunities to influence the company as a whole and your own career. A nice proof of this is that we have been named Career Company for the sixth year in a row!
We constantly work for a sustainable and developing work climate where equality, diversity, and inclusion are a matter of course. For example, there is the ELLE-network, Ellevio's internal women's network, to create conditions for increased collaboration and well-being.
