Join as our Senior Power Trader and play a key role in driving trading performance and strategic growth. In this dynamic position, you’ll support the Head of Trading in maximising speculative P&L while managing fixed price risk and ensuring the wider business has a strong route to market. You’ll generate profit within defined trading limits, coordinate with Trading Analysis to enhance modelling and market insights, and provide crucial backup across trading books to minimise downside exposure. This role also offers the opportunity to support new market entry, shape book hedging, and collaborate with flow businesses on product development and market access—making it ideal for a proactive, analytical trader looking to make real impact in a fast-moving energy market.

What skills/experience do I need to be successful?

  • Substantial power and gas trading experience;
  • UK power auction experience;
  • Knowledge of traded energy markets;
  • Provision of route to market services to internal and external customers.

What sets us apart?

  • Global Impact: With offices in the UK, US, and Australia, and plans for further expansion, you'll be part of a dynamic, globally-minded team, with opportunities to explore new markets and make a difference on a global scale.
  • Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion: We celebrate our diverse culture and value individuals irrespective of background, disability, religion, gender identity, sexuality, or ethnicity. Join a team where diversity is not just welcomed but celebrated as a key driver of growth and innovation.

However, this can vary depending on the role. We may invite you for a face-to-face meeting or require only 1 video interview.
