Would you like to lead critical projects in the regional grid and help develop some of our most important technical teams?

The power grid is essential for society to function—every single day. In the years ahead, we will upgrade and expand a regional grid that can handle more, deliver more, and meet the growing demands of the society around us. Elvia will invest approximately 11 billion kroner to maintain and increase the grid’s capacity.We are now seeking two team leaders for RN Station 1 and RN Station 2. You will be responsible for leading and developing a team with highly specialized expertise, where the collective professional knowledge of the employees is crucial to our success.

As a team leader at RN Station, you will be part of the Internal Operations department, which has approximately 240 employees working on operations, maintenance, emergency preparedness, and grid expansion. You’ll have the opportunity to develop both yourself and your team members, work collaboratively, and help ensure that Elvia is ready when Statnett is ready. RN Stations 1 and 2 currently consist of 44 professionals with cutting-edge expertise in various areas of the regional grid. You will lead a team of approximately 20 employees and, together with the rest of the Regional Grid stations in the south, ensure that we meet our goals and uphold our values, and that our customers are connected in their daily lives.

The positions are based in our licensed service area, one in the Oslo area and one in Hamar. You’ll be part of an inclusive, knowledge-driven environment where we collaborate across disciplines and locations to ensure high-quality, reliable service delivery.

Are you a leader who is motivated by developing people, driving results, and helping to secure critical infrastructure in society?

The key responsibilities awaiting you:

• Mentoring and developing employees
• Monitoring deliverables and results in operations and development
• Ensuring continuous development and quality assurance of our services
• Ensuring good communication and collaboration across the organization
• Focusing on a positive work environment and satisfied employees

Who are you?

At Elvia, we’re curious about who you are, what environments you thrive in, and what you can contribute to our meaningful social mission. That’s why we don’t expect you to check off all the points below before expressing interest in the position, but we believe they are helpful for succeeding and thriving:

• You have experience leading people, professional teams, or projects, and are motivated by developing both employees and strong professional teams

• You may have had personnel responsibility, but this is not a requirement. You may also have led projects, professional teams, or held other roles with clear responsibility and influence

• You have leadership training at the vocational school or college level. Relevant leadership experience may compensate for a lack of formal education

• You are organized and analytical, and able to translate insights into decisions and results, even in the face of uncertainty

• You are a clear and unifying leader who builds trust, manages change effectively, and contributes to the direction and development of your team

It is an advantage if you have technical insight and an understanding of the energy industry or similarly complex delivery environments.
