1 week ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom Octopus Energy Full time

We are seeking an innovative Market Risk Leader to join our Energy Markets team at Octopus Energy. This key leadership role will cover all of our current and future international supply businesses.

The ideal candidate will be creative, acting as a facilitator rather than looking to police positions. At Octopus Energy, we hire great people who can move quickly across a complex business. Being able to thrive in a fast-paced environment is super important for this role.

You will be directly supported by a small but very talented team. And within the wider team, you will work with a number of developers, engineers, and analysts to build and improve tools.

Some international travel will be required.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Work with our supply entities in all countries to understand market conditions and agree appropriate risk approaches
  • Develop and implement Group and country-specific Market Risk Policies, consulting local traders and management
  • Design analysis and visualizations that collate country-specific risk positions into a single, clear Group view, with delivery supported by the engineering team
  • Pull together Group view on weather risk and look to originate and execute positions to manage this risk
  • Work closely with local trading management to originate appropriate wholesale deals
  • Think about how asset and consumer flexibility can be used as risk management tools
  • Generate explanatory materials for a range of senior stakeholders, up to and including Octopus Energy Group board
  • Scope covers market risk generated by wholesale gas, power, and certificates

Requirements:

  • Strong numerical ability and understanding of risk
  • Energy market experience beneficial but not essential
  • Basic Python knowledge will be beneficial but not vital
  • The ability to operate independently in a fast-paced environment while managing multiple projects
  • Interpersonal skills that enable you to effectively form trusted relationships with business unit management teams but at the same time retain an ability to challenge with empathy and understanding. Excellent communication and listening skills will be core to this
