  • Experience building and maintaining production-grade applications and data products.
  • Demonstrated experience applying mathematical optimisation, simulation, forecasting or statistical modelling techniques to real-world business problems.
  • Strong analytical and quantitative problem-solving skills.
  • Experience working with large and complex datasets.
  • Ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to a broad range of stakeholders.
  • Knowledge of electricity, gas or other commodity markets.

What you will need to be successful

  • In depth knowledge of the UK energy markets, for example, day-ahead, intra-day, and the Balancing Mechanism.
  • Experience applying analytics, forecasting or optimization techniques to flexible and dispatchable assets (including BESS, Peaking Plants, CCGTs), enabling automated operational and commercial decision-making.
  • Experience applying analytics, forecasting or optimisation techniques to flexible and dispatchable assets (including BESS, CCGTs, Peakers) , enabling automated operational and commercial decision-making.
  • Degree in a quantitative discipline such as Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Economics, Computer Science or a related field.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
