Platform Geothermie and DAGO (Dutch Association of Geothermal Operators) are working closely together and are in the process of merging with each other (target date 1 January 2021).

As part of a publication of a job opening  for an Office Manager, the  Dutch Association  of Geothermal Operators (DAGO) and  the Platform Geothermie announce a merger in progress. The merger is targeted to happen on January 1, 2021. This merger creates one strong industry association (approximately 100 members) for the geothermal sector in the Netherlands. The association is committed to making the heat supply more sustainable, particularly in horticulture and the built environment. Geothermal energy plays an important role in this energy transition.

The association employs a small team of professionals plus a flexible layer of experts. This team / agency consists of professionals in the field of technology, communication, public affairs, advocacy and legal affairs. In view of the foreseen growth, the organisation is looking for an office manager who, together with this team, can fully support the association in this energy transition by providing optimal service. For the  job opening of an Office Manager see the advertisement.

We will report if we have more information on the planned merger.
