Role description and task arrangements
Organization
The Regional Energy Strategy Twente is a partnership of the 14 Twente municipalities, water board Vechtstromen, the Province of Overijssel and the grid operators Coteq and Enexis. Together they make agreements on the contribution of the Twente region to achieving the goals of the National Climate Agreement. The program organization of the RES falls under the Broad Administrative Consultation (BBO) in which the administrators of the cooperating parties sit. The program organization facilitates the municipalities in the development and implementation of the energy strategy. Work is currently underway to adopt the Twente Energy Strategy (adoption in the summer of this year), the successor to RES 1.0. The emphasis for the RES organization is on facilitating, advising and monitoring municipalities, province, water board and other partners in the elaboration.
As of March 1, the Twente Regional Energy Strategy (RES) is looking for a program manager. You will directly lead a coordination team of 7 employees, indirectly to a broad regional network. You fall directly under the official principals' consultation consisting of a delegation of municipal secretaries.
Together with the coordination team you are responsible for supporting and advising the administrative leader RES-Twente, the BBO and the administrative principals' consultation. Furthermore, you obviously have a role in informing and advising regional colleagues, the substantive working groups and monitoring progress.
The RES Twente is a program organization in which everything revolves around cooperation. Here there are challenges to (administratively and officially) strengthen cooperation. It is an important task to further define and implement the joint course of the Energy Strategy Twente. For this reason, the assignment will be split into two parts:
The members of the coordination team (with the exception of the program manager) come as much as possible from the organizations of the administrative partners and have one leg in their own organization and one leg in the RES cooperation. Deployment is on the basis of secondment with reimbursement of wage costs incurred.
Within the various themes we work task-oriented. On the work floor we work together with the New Energy Overijssel program, stakeholders in the region and other local programs around energy transition. This requires both the program manager and the coordination team to see opportunities in the network and to manage progress on the goals. It is up to the individual municipalities, province, water board and other partners to realize their own implementation practices.
