Job description

Want to have real ownership across pricing, curves, P&L attribution and risk? How about doing it at one of the most active commodities trading businesses in the world.

In this role you are the bridge between traders, middle office and engineers. You own the curve methodology, you drive P&L, and you help the business understand how marks and positions move the numbers. You are not just maintaining processes, you are helping shift end-of-day capabilities toward intraday and contributing to AI-enabled tooling that genuinely changes how the team operates.

You'll become the go-to person across curve construction and how the business handles liquid versus illiquid contracts. That kind of expertise is rare, and here it is valued.

Ideally you will bring experience working in pricing and market risk with direct exposure to oil, power or gas markets. Fluency in P&L attribution and your understanding of forward curve construction, curve hierarchy will be used on a day-to-day basis.

Tech stack is primarily SQL with Python being a nice addition.

This is a role with genuine scope to grow your influence across a global trading operation.
