Senior route planner (m/fd) - district heating

Role Summary

Would you like to work innovatively and sustainably in heat supply with over 25 colleagues, promote the decarbonization of heating networks and perhaps also implement this as a project manager? Do you find it easy to prepare tender documents as well as contract negotiations, discussions with authorities and client advice for local and district heating networks? You know the HOAI planning phases and know which documents are required. Instead of just a few kWth, you are excited about complex projects in the MWth range that you want to see in real operation.
