Job Description

Ready to use your quantitative expertise to influence how one of the UK’s largest energy portfolios manages market risk? At EDF, Success is Personal. You’ll have the opportunity to challenge, analyse and improve how we understand risk, while building a career that’s unique to you.

The Opportunity

As a Market Risk Principal Analyst, you’ll provide independent, accurate and insightful market risk analysis across our trading, hedging and commercial activities, helping EDF understand and manage risk across its portfolio while supporting our transition towards An Electric Britain.

This role will typically involve weekly attendance at our #London Victoria office, so you'll need to live within a reasonable commute of the site.

You’ll develop risk methodologies, quantitative models and reporting processes using tools including Power BI, SQL and Python. Working with stakeholders across trading, supply, pricing and valuations, you’ll turn complex risk analysis into clear insight that supports effective commercial decisions.

In Customers Finance, our SPIRIT values, Supportive, Professional, Inquisitive, Respectful, Inclusive and Transparent, are at the heart of how we work. Whatever your role, you’ll help create a culture built on trust, collaboration, curiosity and continuous improvement, helping us deliver great outcomes for our customers, colleagues and business.

Who You Are

We’re looking for a Market Risk Principal Analyst who enjoys getting beneath complex problems, challenging thinking and turning quantitative analysis into clear insight for senior stakeholders. To be shortlisted, you need to offer:

  • A strong quantitative and numerical background
  • Experience in Market Risk or a similar role
  • Knowledge of Value at Risk, stress testing and scenario analysis
  • Strong Excel skills
  • Experience communicating complex analysis and insight clearly to senior stakeholders

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Delivering high-quality market risk reporting, including Value at Risk, stress testing and other risk metrics
  • Developing risk methodologies and quantitative models to understand, measure, monitor and report risk
  • Supporting and challenging commercial decisions through clear, insightful analysis
  • Monitoring the Energy Market Risk Mandate and wider Risk Control Framework, identifying and escalating breaches
  • Improving risk reporting and automation using tools such as Power BI, SQL and Python

Pay, Benefits and Culture

Alongside circa £65000 per annum, potential for an annual bonus, and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.

At EDF, we believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we offer you the freedom to develop a career that’s unique to you. Here, Success is Personal – it’s your journey, powered by us.

Everyone is welcome at EDF; we’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, and inclusion of minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with disabilities. As a Disability Confident employer, we will support applicants requiring adjustments.

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.
