Astronaut, influencer, captain - these dream jobs were yesterday.
Nowadays, what counts is that you can make a positive difference and contribute to a sustainable future. That's why we at EnBW offer meaningful jobs with real impact.
And that's how our employees actively shape change:
Maria Schley, Hamburg
My path at EnBW began several years ago in the area of conventional energy generation. Out of personal conviction and because I wanted to play an active role in shaping the energy transition, I changed departments. Now I work as a project engineer in the Wind Offshore division and plan and build wind turbines in German and international waters together with my colleagues. It makes me proud that my work today contributes to a more livable society and makes the world a little more sustainable.
It makes me proud that I am making the world a little more sustainable with my work.
After changing departments, I was immediately warmly welcomed by my new colleagues, even though I didn't understand much about wind power at first. I was always helped immediately with questions of any kind. The contact with the most diverse people, e.g. from Asia or America, is simply unbelievable fun. Our greatest motivation? To tackle the energy transition! Our motto? "We can do it together."
My job also helps me in my private life: finding solutions to technical issues trains me to think constructively and helps me solve complex problems in everyday life. All in all, there's only one thing I can say: when opportunities for meaningful change arise, just take a chance on something new. It can't go wrong. On the contrary, it's always an enrichment - both personally and for the company.
For a bright future of solar energy
Jasmin Saad, Stuttgart
The commissioning of an open space PV plant requires a lot of preparatory work. As a project development officer for photovoltaics, I acquire potential sites and accompany all processes up to the building permit for the project.
Even during my time as a student trainee, I wanted an employer for whom environmental protection and the energy transition were just as important as they are for me. EnBW makes a strong stand on precisely these points and really implements promised goals. That's why no other employer was an option for me after I graduated. I wanted to be proud of the company I work for, and as an employee of EnBW, I absolutely am!
I wanted to be proud of the company I work for.
Starting my job at EnBW was very pleasant because I didn't feel like “the new one" and have been very well integrated into my team since day one. We place a lot of value on regular exchange, otherwise the hybrid working environment of home office and office would not work. Everyone in the team has their own personal strengths and knows how to use them. What impresses me most about my colleagues is the positive spirit. At EnBW, you can simply sense that the energy transition is a personal concern for everyone - this drive is contagious!
My employer attaches great importance to personal development and supports the development of social and methodological skills through training courses and seminars. For example, I have learned to be confident and self-assured, which also helps me in my private life.
For a fresh wind in the energy transition
Christian Jespersen, Hamburg
What do I do at EnBW? I find the best location for new wind turbines. By exploring and describing the geology of the subsurface together with our team and our contractors using geophysical, geological and geotechnical exploration methods, and then creating complex models on this basis. But to quantify the overall picture, we also determine meteorological and oceanographic data. Exciting!
What impresses me most about EnBW is that I am actively involved in shaping the energy transition in an international working environment and can set important trends in our projects. It makes me proud when I see that the things we do at EnBW on the subject of sustainability every day make an important contribution to society.
What impresses me most about EnBW is that I am actively involved in shaping the energy transition in an international working environment.
I work daily across different time zones in international teams on a wide variety of projects. Direct communication and an appreciative cooperation are essential for me for lasting success. Everyone in the team has the common goal of implementing the projects as promised. This welds us together a bit more every day and I learn a lot every day. I particularly appreciate the diversity of the team at EnBW, but above all the joy with which the team works on the projects day-to-day. That motivates me daily.
For more drive in the traffic turnaround
Randy Opoku-Nsiah, Hamburg
As Manager Location Acquisition Charging Infrastructure, I expand the EnBW HyperNetwork in the Northern Germany region. To this end, I conduct negotiations with future partners such as retailers, landowners and real estate companies.
What convinced me most about EnBW was its corporate culture and strategy. The company has become very modern and diverse in recent years. But it is especially future-oriented: At my previous employer, I perfected the topic of e-mobility at the B2C level. However, after some time I realized that e-mobility can only be successfully implemented if the necessary charging infrastructure is in place. At EnBW, not only do I have the opportunity to deepen my expertise, but also make my own personal contribution to the mobility revolution. With EnBW, I can help shape and expand the fast-charging infrastructure. True to the motto: "We charge Germany."
You're part of a new movement - a revolution toward e-mobility.
It makes me proud to see how quickly and well we are expanding our EnBW HyperNetwork. I also take great pleasure in the positive conversations I have with our customers at our charging stations. You are part of a new movement - a "revolution" towards e-mobility.
Through the many negotiations I conduct, my learning curve as a salesperson is increasing. I am grateful to every negotiator for the exchange, whether we successfully close a deal or not. That's also the mindset in our team. We know: If we all pull together, we can achieve great things.
For real power and more high speed
Mario Saussele, Herrenberg
In the project planning team for broadband at Netze BW GmbH, I draw up construction implementation plans to connect currently underserved areas to the high-speed network. This involves finding a suitable route in the existing terrain and coordinating it with the relevant authorities and municipalities. I then calculate the services and materials required for the project and hand it over to our construction coordination team and the suppliers.
What impresses me most about the EnBW Group is that the company is committed to both sustainability and modern progress and always takes the interests of its employees into account. It makes me proud to be able to play my part in digitization. In concrete terms, we manage to connect many underserved households to the fiber-optic network every year that previously had no or only limited Internet access.

Since no two projects are the same and new problems and questions arise all the time, our team often works together to find pragmatic solutions. In unknown situations, you are never alone, but can always rely on the support of your colleagues. In my opinion, helpfulness, expertise and humor are the most important characteristics of our team.
