At RWE Supply & Trading GmbH, we are helping to reshape how energy works and contribute to a carbon-neutral future.

- Investigate and resolve operational issues in close collaboration with Trading, Risk, Finance and external stakeholders.
- Deliver regulatory and ad hoc reporting, generating insights that improve operational performance.
