The Day-ahead Planning & Dispatch team serves as the central commercial hub at RWE Supply & Trading GmbH for all continental European dispatch decisions in the power markets. We strategically coordinate the timing and volume of electricity production from our diverse portfolio of power plants, guiding operations from planned activities to managing unforeseen deviations caused by weather or technical factors.

As a member of our team, you'll take over 24/7 responsibility, steering one of Europe's largest fleets of conventional and renewable power stations. We have over 20 GW of installed capacity across various asset classes and among others an additional 3 GW of RWE's Battery investment pipeline in the very near future. Join a dedicated group of experts in short-term portfolio optimisation, actively shaping RWE's energy transition and digitalisation journey. Be part of an exciting journey in the energy industry, where you'll witness and contribute to the unfolding energy transition firsthand.

About the role
  • Optimising Portfolio: Manage the Belgian, Dutch, and German power plant portfolio, encompassing conventional, renewable and customer assets, alongside new technologies like large-scale batteries; this is done through continuous re-optimisation within the portfolio and on the intraday markets.
  • Availability Management: Coordinate and react to short-term changes in availabilities of power plants.
  • Delivery of ancillary services: Ensure provision and delivery of reserves for the grid operators and other customers, manage redispatch requests and serve as the central point of contact for grid operators.
  • Market Expansion and Asset Implementation: Drive new market entries as well as new asset implementations with internal and external experts.
  • Process Enhancement: Contribute to the automation, maintenance, and continuous improvement of internal tools and processes to streamline operations.
  • Innovative Solutions: Bring a fresh perspective to the table to tackle optimisation challenges, identify new business opportunities and help to develop creative solutions.
Job requirements and experience
  • Hold a degree or completed apprenticeship with relevant further qualifications in relevant fields like engineering, economics, mathematics, IT or similar.
  • Show a keen interest in commercial aspects and analytical thinking, with a willingness to learn in a fast-paced trading environment.
  • Ability to manage asset options and adapt to market changes, aiming to outperform benchmarks and contribute to the desk's PnL.
  • Be an excellent team player across different teams and locations.
  • Having a strong grasp of commercial understanding to recognise and identify trading opportunities.
  • Ability to work with minimal supervision and make effective decisions under pressure.
  • Willingness to work in a fully continuous 24/7 shift environment.
  • Fluent in English and German
Advantageous, but not essential
  • First experience with programming, particularly in VBA and Python.
  • Proficiency in Dutch.
What we value most is passion, willingness to learn and a determined and resilient work ethic. So, even if you think you do not yet display all of the skills above we would still like to hear from you.
