Till Knippenberg

Consultant, E.ON Inhouse Consulting GmbH

My Job as Inhouse Consultant:

I joined E.ON Inhouse Consulting as a consultant in October 2021. In our project landscape, I usually steer my own work packages or support a senior consultant in a more complex workstream.
As our projects cover the two main pillars of E.ON’s business, Energy Networks and Customer Solutions, I enjoy the opportunity to work on a variety of topics […].

My daily challanges:

As E.ON is one of the main forces driving the energy transition in Europe, we are involved in challenging projects that help our colleagues deliver the best possible outcome for our customers. In this sense, I am in continuous contact with our E.ON partners to further optimize our business, while at the same time pursuing the interest of our customers.
On an operational level, this can vary from conducting interviews and facilitating workshops, to summarizing our findings for our top management.

Why I like to work as Inhouse Consultant:

At an inhouse consultancy, I have the privilege of combining the best of both worlds – being closely involved with one company that I am passionate about, while working in a fast-paced and diverse environment that focuses on my personal development.

What I like most about being an Inhouse Consultant:

The nature of the tasks and the cooperation with the ECON and E.ON team! I have learnt a lot for my personal development from all the projects I have worked on so far. Further, the spirit within the team is unmatched as I have not had the opportunity to work with such great people in previous environments.

My life before joining the Inhouse Consultancy:

I came to ECON directly from WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management, where I received my Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees. Having grown up in the Ruhr area, ECON was the ideal choice for me to stay close to my roots and my local network.

What I like to do in my spare time:

In a mentally challenging work environment, physical challenges are rare. I have found a great balance for myself by regularly going running and to the gym. But I also enjoy catching up with friends on a regular basis and spending cozy evenings on the couch.
