Drive your career with an energy leader
Looking to gain experience at a leading European energy trading house? Want to work alongside industry experts, building experience and skills that will help you flourish in your early career? Then one of our year-long Industrial Placements could be just what you are looking for.

We currently have opportunities in Swindon (and one in London) across a variety of areas including:

Back Office
Join this integral part of our business, which oversees the life cycle of physical commodities trades, and discover how we offer key support to global trading desks.

Commercial Asset Optimisation
Gain insight into how we optimise positions such as long-term hedging, make-or-buy decisions and the purchase of commodities (such as gas) to operate a power plant.

Risk
Analyse the Profit & Loss, trading strategies and market risks held by our trading desks, communicate relevant information to senior management and other stakeholders, and provide advice on the potential risks of existing strategies and new business opportunities.

What you’ll need to thrive

We’re looking for students who are in the penultimate year of a highly analytical, numerical or business-focused subject (such as Maths, Physics, Engineering, Computer Science, Business or Economics) and who are ideally on course to achieve a 2:1 or better. You must have:

• Passion for the energy industry with a real desire to learn, grow and develop
• Strong analytical and numerical abilities
• Excellent communication skills
• IT proficiency
• Commercial aptitude and entrepreneurial skills
• Strong team-working skills and a confident, sociable manner
• Desire to take accountability

A culture that empowers you

This is a chance to gain highly valuable work experience and skills – and potentially secure yourself a place on one of our graduate programmes. From day one, you’ll be making a real contribution to your team. To help you get the most out of your placement, we provide lots of support and development opportunities, including in-house courses and on-the-job training.

You will also enjoy:
