Requirements

What we're looking for

  • A completed education at MBO 4 or HBO level.
  • Demonstrable experience as an administrative supporter, preferably in a scientific or complex technical environment, or initial experience in portfolio management.
  • Experience with SAP, Meridian, or similar systems, and you can demonstrate that you quickly master new systems.
  • You consider psychological safety important and contribute to a team in which everyone feels heard and dares to ask questions.
  • Professional command of the Dutch and English languages.

If you have ambitions in portfolio management and an HBO/WO background, then this role can be a great stepping stone to grow into a portfolio advisor within a few years. In that case, we also invite you to apply.

The role

At TenneT, we work every day on the electricity grid of tomorrow. Our goal? A reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy system. As a Business Support Officer, you will also play a role in realizing this ambition. Ready to make an impact?

The power grid in the Netherlands is reaching capacity in more and more places. Addressing this is one of the biggest challenges in the energy transition. The Portfolio Management team maintains an overview of the entire set of projects and is right in the middle of the organization tackling this problem. Because our current colleague is moving up internally, we are looking for someone to ensure that information and decisions land in the right place, well and on time.

What you'll do

  • Ensuring requests land correctly: you ensure that requests arrive completely and on time in the right place, so that decision-making proceeds without unnecessary delay.
  • Processing decisions: you process decisions made in all databases and reports, so that everyone works with the same, up-to-date information.
  • Keeping project data in order: you manage the data surrounding the fixed decision moments in projects: the moments at which it is determined whether a project may proceed to the next phase. This ensures it is always clear where a project stands.
  • Maintaining the decision register: you update the central register in which TenneT-wide decisions are recorded, so that decisions can always be found and verified.
  • Handling administrative projects: such as configuration work in Meridian and creating orders in SAP, so that the work in the systems is well-organized.
  • Helping build your role: you think along about how processes, systems, and your own role will further take shape. You identify where things can be improved and contribute ideas, so that the team's support runs increasingly smoothly.

How you'll work

Hybrid working is the norm for us. You will be given the opportunity to work from home. We also value meeting each other personally at the office. For this, your location is Arnhem, where you will meet together an average of 2 days per week. You will also occasionally work from one of our regional offices or project locations. Therefore, your workplace may vary.

Competencies

To truly make a difference in this role, you recognize yourself in the following competencies:

  • Situational adaptability: One task is not the same as another. You adapt your approach to the situation and set the right priorities when they shift. In doing so, you not only complete your own tasks but also look at what your colleagues need and respond to that.
  • Optimizing work processes: You help further shape processes, systems, and your own role. You see where work can be more efficient, adapt your own way of working accordingly, and think along about how systems can best be configured.

This role falls within the Business Services Supporter job profile, so that it is clear for both you and TenneT which responsibilities, expectations, and growth opportunities belong to this position.

For this position, we require a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG).

TenneT offers you the opportunity to contribute to a sustainable energy future. Together with colleagues, partners and stakeholders, you work on innovative solutions that make the energy transition possible. With us, you get the space to develop your talent and work in an environment where your growth is central. We offer you:

A permanent contract with a two-month probationary period, based on 32 hours per week.

  • A salary in scale 6: €3,691 to €6,493 per month with 8% holiday allowance, 6% year-end bonus, and 70% pension contribution.
  • A solid pension via ABP: we pay 70% of your premium.
  • 43 vacation days per year.

All mentioned employment conditions apply to full-time employment, unless stated otherwise.

We attach great value to a good work-life balance and your personal development. Therefore, we offer flexible solutions such as:

  • Hybrid working, including a travel allowance, internet allowance, and a home office allowance.
  • Support for your vitality, with a contribution towards a sports subscription and health insurance.
  • Development opportunities via the TenneT Academy, so that you can continue to expand your knowledge and skills.

We stimulate initiative and give you the space to come up with new ideas. Together, we ensure that the Netherlands stays in motion and is ready for the energy of tomorrow.

In their own words

About the company & team

You will be working in a team of 15 colleagues, mostly portfolio managers. You do not need to follow every substantive discussion in detail, but you do understand what is happening and what the team needs from you. It is not a runaway train: the role and the administration are still under development. Together with the other business supporter, you will help shape this.

At TenneT, we look for professionals who contribute to an effective and future-proof project organization. We expect you to have the right experience and skills to make a valuable contribution to our team and our mission. Therefore, we ask of you:
