In the team of Daimy Abdoelkariem, which consists of 17 professionals, we're looking for a Grid Model Manager. In this role you're responsible for:

  • Setting up and maintaining the basic model of the Dutch high-voltage grid and network models derived from it, in order to be able to perform calculations on the grid, both nationally and within a European context;
  • You will receive requests for information about model data or models, from within the TenneT organisation and from third parties, and you will handle them;
  • Contribution to the further development and quality improvement of the basic model and its underlying data set by conducting research and formulating implementation proposals;
  • Periodic consultations with the System Operations (SOP) department and thus contribute to keeping the models in both departments at the same level;
  • Participation in the activities of the working group data and models of ENTSO‑E and thus contribute to the coordination in the European context;
