Welcome to Guidehouse’s Europe and Middle East (EME) public sector (PS) team within our global Energy, Sustainability and Infrastructure segment (ES&I). With more than 700 consultants ES&I is the largest energy and sustainability consulting team worldwide. While in ES&I we also collaborate with utilities and energy companies, large corporations, product manufacturers, and investors to help them thrive in a rapidly changing energy environment, our PS team focuses on governments like the European Commission and the German government, where we run many high-level and truly impactful projects in parallel, that provide the backbone for making our society climate neutral as soon as possible. Working for a broad range of clients enables us to leverage our impact on policymaking.
We base our analyses on and derive our recommendations from science-based reports, technological competences, and an appreciation for practical and innovative approaches. Therefore, Guidehouse’s ES&I segment always strives to be at the cutting edge of climate and energy market developments. Our strength is the development of tailor-made solutions.

-

Become part of our team to work on projects to accelerate the green energy transition nationally and globally. Our projects tackle critical aspects of the energy transition such as smart grids and the integration of renewables to the power sector, decarbonization in industry, and the ramp up of the hydrogen value chain.

  • Under guidance and support of project leadership, you will contribute to successful project implementation by leading work streams in large scale projects. Based on strong analytical skills, you will provide fact-based recommendations and solutions, be responsible for stakeholder and partner management, supporting the team management of large-scale programs and ensure various deliverables such as analyses, thematic roundtables and workshops involving the private sector, grid operators and policy-makers are implemented successfully. You will work on projects for public institutions and industry clients on national, EU, and international level.
  • Build good relationships with the wider Guidehouse team and establish client and industry networks and uphold Guidehouse’s values of respect, integrity, innovation, stewardship and excellence and support our culture of inclusion & diversity.

What You Will Need:
