As the energy transition unfolds, 50Hertz is involved in a wide range of major projects in the German Baltic region, bringing power that is generated in its offshore wind farms to the onshore power grid via undersea cables. This creates challenging offshore jobs for experienced specialists. The energy sector is beginning to take the next decisive step in this area.

Let’s shape the future together

In the offshore domain, you will not only be working on existing platforms and installations. To drive the energy transition, we also need to carry out projects to build and extend new infrastructure. Our platforms and individual elements are assembled in Germany and other countries. Other important requirements for success in an offshore career are a willingness to travel and use the English language. Personal skills are just as important as your technical qualifications. Working on platforms, technical installations, or in project management involves teamwork at the very highest level. We must be able to trust each other completely. Physical fitness and sea safety skills are required too. We do put safety first! To make this happen, all our employees who work on the relevant installations regularly take safety education and training courses.

Towards a successful energy transition in a sustainable world

As one of the four transmission grid operators in Germany, 50Hertz is responsible for high-voltage power transmission; control at this level is decisive for the stability of the grid and to ensure a secure electricity supply in Germany and Europe. We are part of a European grid association, working closely with colleagues throughout Europe. 50Hertz is part of a European company, working alongside Belgian grid operator Elia in the Elia Group. We work together closely in many key areas. Individual activities such as IT or purchasing are organised at the group level, which means that in these areas colleagues from Elia and 50Hertz work in a team from both Berlin and Brussels.
