Enexis

Company Overview

Enexis Holding N.V.

's-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands

1999

Approximately 5,500 employees and a revenue of €3 billion in 2023 (source: enexis.nl).

What They Do

Enexis primarily focuses on network infrastructure as a core technology, managing and developing low and medium voltage electricity networks and low-pressure gas distribution. The company increasingly emphasizes smart grid automation, distribution automation, smart meters, and the integration of renewable energy sources such as decentralized solar energy and onshore wind energy. Their services include network installation, maintenance, metering for millions of customers, and managing public lighting, with a strong focus on supporting the energy transition in the Netherlands (source: bitscale.ai).

Projects & Track Record

Enexis has an impressive track record in facilitating the integration of renewable energy in its regions. This includes supporting SDE+ subsidy applicants for solar and wind energy through grid connections in Groningen, Drenthe, and Overijssel. The company is working on ongoing grid enhancements to achieve 70% renewable electricity by 2030, in line with the Dutch Climate Agreement. Key projects include accelerated investments for decarbonization, such as the rollout of smart meters and the development of heat networks through Enpuls (source: enexisgroep.com).

Recent Developments

In the past two years, Enexis received a negative credit outlook from S&P on May 23, 2025, due to rising investment pressure from the energy transition. Despite this pressure, regulated returns remain stable under the ACM framework for 2022-2026. The company has not reported any major acquisitions or mergers, but potential government investments are on the horizon (source: enexisgroep.nl).

Working at Enexis

Enexis offers a wide range of positions, including installation and maintenance technicians, engineers for electricity and gas networks, and IT and digital roles such as low-code developers. The company has nearly 900 employees in IT and business value chains focusing on agile sprints for maintenance and incidents. The culture at Enexis emphasizes safety as a top priority, with strict standards and monitoring, and encourages collaboration with stakeholders (source: mendix.com).

Job Description

You roll up your sleeves alongside a bilingual team of around 17 colleagues, including information security officers, a security architect, a risk manager, and business continuity advisors. We are a diverse team with a wide range of expertise and experience levels, coming together every Thursday to strengthen our team spirit.

As part of the ISOs & Specialists team, you spend at least one day per week at the office (Thursday) to collaborate, and you ensure you stay well connected with your teammates and stakeholders. We work in an informal environment with plenty of freedom. You're comfortable working independently and finding out what needs to be done.

We find it important that you feel at home with us. We are all different, and the beauty of that is how we complement one another. We need each other's perspectives and opinions to achieve a successful energy transition! Read more about our diversity and inclusion policy here.

How You Approach Your Work

You take responsibility for cultivating a "can-do" attitude and maintaining positive energy within the team, enabling the DRC to operate as a "Department of Yes." You achieve this by embracing and embedding a customer-focused mindset and way of working, with continuous attention to quality. You embrace change and dare to dream big ("How can we make it happen?").

You arrive at responsible conclusions and decisions by evaluating arguments from multiple viewpoints. With your persuasive skills, you support the value chain in aligning differing viewpoints. You promote expanding and leveraging relationships and networks to achieve information security objectives.

You will:

  • Advise on and implement information security policies within the IT domain.
  • Conduct risk analyses and ensure appropriate mitigation measures are in place.
  • Train colleagues and increase security awareness.
  • Monitor and report on the status of information security.
  • Collaborate with internal and external experts to apply the latest trends.

Additionally, you bring:

  • A bachelor's or master's level of working and thinking.
  • At least 5 years of relevant work experience in cybersecurity/information security, including first-line security experience.
  • Experience with information security management systems (ISMS) and risk management.
  • Familiarity with common security standards (preferably ISO 27001).
  • Strong command of both Dutch and English.
  • Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA or equivalent are a plus.

What You Bring Energy To

In the coming years, Enexis faces major challenges. We are working toward a CO₂-neutral energy system while keeping the energy transition feasible and affordable for everyone.

Digitalization will play a crucial role in solving these challenges, as it enables us to perform more work at lower cost and with lower risks. Digitalization is the industrial revolution of our sector. It is a fundamental transformation in how we think, work, and create value. It requires a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement-from technician to director. We do not underestimate the scale of the change ahead; it requires us to acquire new skills and look out for one another. Together, we are building an organization prepared for the future-one that integrates sustainability and technology to serve our customers and society.

"We believe that a digital infrastructure is essential for executing our work in the physical infrastructure more accurately, predictably, and efficiently, ensuring our customers receive sustainable energy on time.

By 2034, our digital and physical infrastructures will be fully equivalent."

And of course, we invest energy in you as well

At Enexis, we take good care of you. You'll have the space to grow, learn, and make an impact. And naturally, you can count on strong employment conditions:

  • Salary: Between €5,592 and €7,989 gross per month (based on 40 hours per week). Including secondary benefits, your salary can rise to €10,282 gross per month.
  • Pension contribution: 70% contribution toward your ABP choice pension.
  • Personal budget: 10% and a 13th-month payment of 10.7% of your annual gross salary. Flexibly deployable.
  • Vacation days: 24.5 days per year for a full-time contract, with the option to purchase additional leave.
  • Hybrid working: Including a fully equipped home office and a €2.45 allowance per home-working day.
  • Equipment: Laptop/tablet and phone, also for private use.
  • Travel: Travel expense reimbursement and first-class public transport subscription for business travel.
  • Vitality: €700 vitality budget, for example for a gym membership.
  • Learning & development: Access to internal development platforms or external training and courses.
