What does the role entail?

 

The Protection and Relocation service of the Contact Center handles all requests requiring adjustments or relocations of Elia's assets.

  • Providing information for a clear and comprehensive execution specification document.
  • Participating in site and coordination meetings to align project progress and approach.
  • Supervising construction sites: reporting to the project team on technical, quality, and safety aspects. 
  • Managing planning, budget, and procurement oversight. 
  • Collaborating with other Elia departments, such as MAC, Infra, and NetOp. 
  • Independently handling small projects from A to Z, managing both the technical aspects and coordination.

Safety is your absolute priority, and you are ready to make a difference with your knowledge and motivation! 

 

Ideally, your profile includes: 

 

  • A secondary education diploma or a bachelor's degree in electricity, mechanics, construction, or electromechanics. 
  • Basic knowledge of cables, lines, and an understanding of the high-voltage grid.

  • Proficiency in IT tools (Word, Excel, drawing programs). 
  • Willingness to work nationwide, with a valid category B driving license. 
  • Fluency in Dutch with a good knowledge of French, or a willingness to learn the language. Bilingualism is a plus.
