For this you actively engage with industry stakeholders and working groups to stay ahead of key developments and work closely with the product management team at our headquarters in Cologne.

• You constantly improve your knowledge and expertise of the electricity and ancillary service markets and share it to the relevant internal stakeholders in a clear and accessible manner.
• You travel to Cologne when necessary to enhance collaboration with the teams.
