Under pressure, you keep a cool head and know how to maintain an overview. You work accurately and have the ability to solve problems with custom solutions. You read technical drawings with ease and translate technical drawings and reports into high-quality work. In doing so, you always make conscious and responsible choices within what is possible and permitted. With your clear communication and enthusiasm, you effortlessly engage others, making it clear to everyone what is expected.
Furthermore, you have:

• A completed MBO level 4 education in electrical engineering or energy technology

• You receive a standard 24.5 vacation days, which can be supplemented with your personal budget up to 60 days off.

• Good employment conditions and, after a successful year, a permanent contract immediately.

• A collegial working atmosphere in a team you can build upon.

All financial conditions at a glance, so you know exactly where you stand:

• A salary of up to € 5,622 gross per month if you work 40 hours

• A personal budget of 24% on top of your salary (incl. holiday allowance). That means a maximum of € 1,349 extra salary or up to 35.5 extra vacation days. You can see how it works in our calculation tool.

• 24.5 vacation days and pension accrual with ABP, where we pay 70% of the premium.

• € 80 net field allowance per month. This is how we ensure you also have a nice cup of coffee during your work!

• An on-call and disturbance service allowance of € 438.08 gross for a full on-call week, on top of the compensation you naturally receive for your overtime during this on-call period. You can also have this paid out or convert it into leave.

On top of that, there is this:

• You will receive a company car from us. That way, you are behind the wheel of your own work!

• € 700 annually to spend on your own energy, for example for your sports membership or your new sportswear.

• Grow and develop? With us, it is possible! Follow courses or training; we pay for them. Or grow into roles such as Commissioning Technician or Practical Instructor.

As a Protection Technician, you ensure that the protections in our high- and medium-voltage grid continue to function optimally. Thanks to your craftsmanship, our cables and installations are continuously protected.
Why working at Stedin gives you energy:

As a Protection Technician, you ensure that our protection systems in high-voltage and medium-voltage stations continue to work reliably. By testing, analyzing, and performing replacements and repairs, you guarantee the safety of the energy grid. In this way, you contribute directly to a stable and future-proof energy system.

A day as a Protection Technician:

• You start the day at a high-voltage station, where you discuss the planning, safety agreements, and specifics together with specialist colleagues.

• Afterwards, you get to work on location: Based on technical drawings, you perform maintenance and repair work. You test the protection assets according to clear protocols and pay close attention to station-specific characteristics that could influence the test results.

• Do you detect deviations? Then, if necessary, you consult with the Operational Manager or OIV and elaborate your findings in a clear report.

• You work with diverse systems: from modern digital protections to older installations where manual repairs and replacements of protection assets are sometimes required.

• At the end of the day, you send your report, leave the station tidy, and look ahead to tomorrow's tasks.

Take the step toward your next challenge. We look forward to meeting you.
