About the job

Senior Manager for Data & AI Solutions - where technology meets social responsibility

Do you want to lead a team that develops data- and AI-solutions for Denmark's critical infrastructure? Do you have experience translating data and AI into solutions that create value in practice? And are you motivated to contribute to the green transition as well? Then read on here.

As Senior Manager you will be responsible for driving the AI agenda and supporting a more efficient use of the power grid, which is an important prerequisite for the green transition.

You will be responsible for a team of specialists and will have a central role in driving the AI agenda from experiments to operation-ready solutions. We are looking for a leader with strong technical credibility who can ensure that data and AI create real value and ultimately enable the acceleration of the green transition.

Set the direction for Data & AI Solutions

As Senior Manager you will be responsible for the department “Data & AI Solutions”. Organizationally, you will be part of “Data & AI”. You will have personnel and professional leadership responsibility for data analysts, data scientists and AI developers and you will be responsible for ensuring that data and AI are translated into solutions that are actively used in the business.

The role combines leadership, technological insight and change management with a focus on delivering results through people, data and technology. As part of an agile setup you will work closely with specialists, product teams and the business on the development and implementation of new solutions.

Your main tasks

  • Lead and develop the department's data analysts, data scientists and AI developers.
  • Drive the AI agenda from theory and experiments to operation-ready solutions with real business value.
  • Ensure that data analyses and insights are translated into decision-making material and action in the business.
  • Collaborate with data scientists on solutions that support efficient utilization of the power grid and the green transition.
  • Drive change management and ensure anchoring and use of data- and AI-solutions in the organization.

You also contribute to the strategy and roadmap for the digitalization department's data- and AI-efforts as well as recruitment and competency development in the department. In addition, you will be responsible for the budget for AI solutions and for the professional direction regarding methods, tools and standards in collaboration with the department's professional leads.

The position is based in Silkeborg. The department collaborates across several locations, and travel activity is to be expected primarily to Esbjerg and Aarhus.

You create results through technology, leadership and change

We are looking for a leader with a strong professional background in data and AI. You have hands-on experience implementing data- and/or AI-solutions and can establish credibility with both specialists and the business. You know how to translate complex technical possibilities into solutions that create value, while developing employees and ensuring organizational anchoring. You thrive in collaboration with management, product teams and subject-matter experts and can drive progress in an organization under development.

We would like you to have

  • Documented hands-on experience in developing and implementing data- and/or AI-solutions actively used in the business.
  • Leadership experience and experience delivering results through transformation and change.
  • In-depth knowledge of Azure, Copilot, Fabric and Databricks.
  • Experience working in agile delivery setups and delivering results through product teams.
  • Ability to communicate effectively across the organization and create alignment between technology and business.

It would be an advantage if you have experience with semantic models, MLOps, DataOps, generative AI, Power Platform, data governance or information security.

Flexibility and strong sense of community in everyday life

As an employee at N1 you get a high degree of influence over your tasks and your everyday life. With us there is flexibility to make everyday life fit as well as possible and plenty of room for initiative and your professional abilities. At the same time you will experience a strong sense of community where we help each other succeed. If you can both handle your own tasks and make your colleagues better, then you are exactly the person we need at N1.

Become part of Denmark's largest Power Grid Company

If you have questions about the position, you are, of course, welcome to contact Senior Director, Anders Kelstrup Nielsen at [email protected]. We gladly receive your motivated CV in our recruitment system and we will call for interviews on an ongoing basis.

As we work with critical infrastructure, a background check will be conducted before any employment. This background check is done digitally and consists of verification of your identity and a criminal record check.

We look forward to hearing from you.

We are a power grid company that operates, expands and develops Denmark's largest power grid. It could hardly be stated more briefly.

We are 750 colleagues who every day help drive the electrification of Denmark, and who ensure that more than 800,000 homes and businesses have power in the socket - now and in the future. In other words, we need to develop tomorrow's power grid so it is ready for solutions that have not yet seen the light of day. It is a big responsibility and a societal task that we are proud to solve together.

But if there still has to be power in the socket in the future, we must dare to think differently and be open to new energy; new solutions and new colleagues.

At N1 we are a workplace driven by people, and our framework provides room for both work life, family life and everything in between. For example, we are proud that we do not cap the number of days off for a child's illness. We think that makes sense.

N1 is Jutland's largest power grid company, owned by the Norlys group, and geographically anchored in Esbjerg with offices also in Aalborg, Silkeborg and Copenhagen. You can read more about us at N1.dk or follow our daily life on LinkedIn/@elnetselskabet N1.
