Requirements

What we're looking for

  • A completed HBO (higher professional education) degree in, for example, public administration, energy technology, or law.
  • At least 3 years of demonstrable experience as a policy officer, in which you have independently made and defended policy considerations. Preferably all of this within the energy sector, financial sector, or at ministries.
  • (In-depth) knowledge of REMIT/transparency obligations, knowledge of and insight into what Inside Information Platforms are, and energy legislation.

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