Wind power is here to stay. And now Vestas – No. 1 in Modern Energy – offers you the chance to influence one of the fastest growing and most important industries of our time. Join the Vestas Power Programme and get challenging, global opportunities for career growth.
At Vestas, we are thinking ahead and taking the lead. In 2007 Vestas opened the world’s largest wind turbine component test facility. But that’s not all. In 2008 we will also open the world’s largest wind energy research centre. These new state-of-the-art facilities are designed to become the driving force behind global wind turbine research and development. But ultimately our results depend on human skills – and this is where you become an important part of the picture.
We are always looking for the best talents
Talents who can potentially make modern energy the preferred sustainable alternative to oil and gas. To lead the way we are introducing a research programme called the Vestas Power Programme in partnership with the University of Aalborg. This programme is the largest and most comprehensive partnership ever made between a wind turbine producer and a university.
