As a global player, RWE is a pioneer in the European energy market. We owe this leading position not least to our IT and Infrastructure & Provider Management (IPM) divisions, whose innovative technologies keep us on a successful course.
What are we still missing? Your technical skills and fresh ideas!

With on-the-job training and a balanced mix of online learning, face-to-face workshops and technical training, we prepare you for the challenges of the future.
