Join us in this role where you’ll develop actionable trading views across European power markets, with a focus on North-West Europe and the UK. Working directly with our Senior Trader on the Revenue Desk, you’ll turn fundamental market analysis into strategic recommendations that shape our hedging and proprietary trading positions on the curve up to 5 years out.
**Welcome to Trading & Revenue
**You’ll be part of Price Forecasting & Analysis, a team of dedicated trading analysts and model developers with diverse backgrounds in commodity market analysis, forecasting, and advanced analytics. We have dedicated model developers, so your focus will be on market research and trading support — not building models from scratch.
We value flexibility, experimentation, and knowledge sharing, working in virtual teams with experienced traders, analysts, meteorologists and other specialists. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team, and we especially encourage women and candidates from underrepresented backgrounds to apply.
You’ll play an important role in:
- Developing and communicating actionable trading views on European power markets
- Identifying fundamental shifts - supply/demand, policy, weather, interconnector flows - and translating them into trading recommendations
- Collaborating with internal and external analysts to refine market views
- Collaborating directly with the Senior Trader to refine hedging and prop trading strategies
- Performing deep-dive market research on themes that drive power prices across Europe
- Providing fundamental inputs for our price forecasting models and analytics
- Mentoring and educating colleagues on power market dynamics
- Improving our products including price forecasts and trading signal
- Contributing to growing our trading PnL.
What makes this role stand out:
- Direct P&L impact - your recommendations feed straight into trading decisions, not a report that sits on a shelf
- Close to the action - you sit with the trading desk, not in a back-office analytics function
- Green energy trading - your analysis shapes how a global leader in renewable energy trades power
- Ownership - you’ll have the autonomy to drive your own research agenda and trading views
To succeed in the role, you:
- Have extensive, hands on experience providing trading driven market research and recommendations within power markets, gained in a trading house, power utility, bank, hedge fund or equivalent trading environment
- Have a proven track record of supporting hedging and proprietary trading decisions, with demonstrated impact on positioning and results
- Have deep understanding of European power market fundamentals and their interaction with forwards, options, and curve dynamics
- Have strong analytical and numerical skills, with the ability to form clear, well reasoned market views under uncertainty
- Have the ability to communicate complex analysis into decisive, trader ready recommendations
- Have a Master’s degree in economics, finance, energy, engineering or a related quantitative field or a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA®) designation.
It would be great if you also have:
- Experience with North-Western European power markets specifically
- Familiarity with fundamental power market stack modelling concepts
- Experience mentoring or coaching junior analysts
- A passion for continuous improvement, innovation, and knowledge sharing
- Proficiency in Python and experience with statistical analysis and time series analysis.
Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
