Students

Living in the present and working for the future – our goal is to continuously optimise the energy sector today and tomorrow. To achieve this goal, we are looking for motivated students from a wide range of disciplines who share our mission and want to work with us to advance the energy transition. 

We give you the unique opportunity to get involved in projects that really make a difference. Your initiative, commitment and expertise are in demand. Even as a student, we consider you a fully-fledged team member, allowing you to contribute your ideas and advance your career at the same time. And the best part: We know that your studies take priority, which is why we offer you a lot of flexibility so that you can combine both tasks in the best possible way.
