The energy transition calls for smart solutions, strong collaboration, and a new perspective on how we use our power grid. As Account Manager A at Alliander, you’ll play a key role in this.

You are the link between large corporate clients, internal teams, and the challenges posed by an increasingly congested power grid. Your responsibilities include contracting flexible capacity from clients on the waiting list and from existing clients. You assess clients’ flexibility potential, discuss the options, and translate these into appropriate contractual agreements.

In addition, you’ll assist customers with complex energy and congestion issues. In this way, you’ll help ensure that available grid capacity is used more intelligently and efficiently, and you’ll make a direct contribution to the Netherlands’ energy transition.

Your energy

As an Account Manager A, no two days are the same. You’ll be speaking with large corporate clients who need to make important decisions about their energy supply and business operations. You’ll manage complex projects, reconcile differing interests, and ensure that agreements are actually reached.

• Connecting internal and external stakeholders with different interests and responsibilities.
• Monitoring progress and managing complex client cases.

You’re curious, results-oriented, and thrive in a fast-paced environment. You take ownership of your projects, aren’t afraid to speak up, and actively seek out opportunities to collaborate.

You possess:

• A level of work and thinking equivalent to that of a higher professional education (HBO) or university (WO) program.
• For this role, we are looking for a mid-level employee with approximately 5 years of work experience in a similar role
• Experience in account management, client relationship management, stakeholder management, or consulting.
• Experience in building and maintaining long-term customer relationships.
