Useful to know!
Where can I work in construction engineering?
There are jobs in Berlin and all eleven regional head offices in the federal states of Eastern Germany, plus Hamburg.
What kind of work will I do?
There are no overhead power lines without steel construction, no substations without structural engineering, and no underground cables without civil engineering. The range of construction activities extends from guiding renovation and repair projects involving current operational installations to developing construction standards for high-voltage installations and managing large-scale projects.

Steffi Tetzlaff
Construction engineer in the Eastern regional zone
I am responsible for new build, renovation, and demolition projects for legacy installations in the Eastern regional zone. Something unexpected comes up in every construction project, for example, protecting animal species. It takes a lot of flexibility and organisational skill to coordinate the many different internal and external activities involved. That is what makes the work interesting for me - no two days are the same and you can’t plan for everything. This means you need to be an all-rounder.

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.en.
A job with a future
Whether you work on a platform, on substations, or in the office, if you want to work actively to combat climate change, you will find that the offshore division provides opportunities for meaningful work. The jobs available range from technical and engineering duties to administration and support services.
Typical Fields of Activity for Civil Engineers at 50Hertz
Asset Management: This is where the principles and guidelines are developed that determine how structural engineering challenges are managed across the entire company.
Projects, Lines, Substations, and Offshore: These areas implement all reconstruction and new construction projects for our typical construction tasks, such as overhead lines and cable routes, substations and switchgear, as well as offshore structures.
Grid Operation: This is where the condition of our structures and constructions is monitored, needs for action are identified, and maintenance projects are initiated and carried out..
The energy transition offers many opportunities—including for your own career!
One example of this is Jessica. A trained architect, she works as a project manager at 50Hertz. In her day-to-day role, she is responsible for large-scale sustainable projects such as the construction of a green substation, and leads maintenance initiatives. In doing so, she makes a vital contribution to the energy transition.
