This structure allows us to develop synergies and accelerate rationalization of products & models while aligning ourselves closely with respective businesses. DS Power team currently consists of 12-14 people who are highly analytical and play a pivotal role in the delivery of material power deals within SE-EE working closely with originators and trading desks.

The Power business in Europe is active in all the major European power markets across the entire power value chain and furthermore provides non-standard structured solutions for customers and counterparties. The role therefore requires specialized knowledge of the European power markets and the corresponding regulatory environment as well as an agile, creative mind and strong work ethic to keep pace with the market developments.

- Collaborate with power originators and traders to create innovative structured products in response to demand and changing market conditions
- Provide specialized knowledge on structure, valuation and risk assessment for opportunities in the European power market
- Provide an independent view on structured transactions, with constructive challenge of the deal owner as required and suggest alternative solutions or improvements
- Develop and own valuation methods and models for pricing and risk assessment of complex structured contracts. Identify value drivers and risks inherent in the transactions (e.g. market risk, performance risk, credit risk, regulatory risk, financing risk).
- As part of the deal team proactively engage with commercial project leaders to (re-)structure non-standard transactions during negotiation phase, be creative to suggest alternative solutions and adaption of contract structures
- Work closely with all relevant internal stakeholders during the approval process
- Collaborate with deal owners to manage and extract value from acquired structured positions
- Maintain close, collaborative relationships with the wider team and other internal partners in the value chain
- Maintain an outward mindset and ongoing commitment of Deal Structuring to the One-team approach

**What we need from you**

We are keen to hear from individuals who are quick learners with demonstrable experience of leading individually as well as small teams towards finding solution to complex business problems and grow within a dynamic environment of power trading.

Beyond the key requirements mentioned above, strong knowledge or experience in at least one or more areas listed below will be advantageous in succeeding and thriving in this role:

- Knowledge of corporate finance and accounting principles
- Commercial acumen and strong grasp of principles of long-term commodity investments & risk drivers
- Experience of structured asset and deal valuations, including risk management strategies.
