🎯 Impact | Trading decisions, risk visibility, valuation accuracy

📏 Team | ~150 people globally

📍 Location | UK (London preferred, flexible)

💻 Working model | Hybrid / Remote-first

💼 Type | Permanent, full-time

You enjoy sitting between the commercial and the technical.

And you’re at your best when complex analytics finally click for a client.

This is a role for someone who understands energy markets, quantitative risk, and how software actually gets used, not just how it’s built.

You’ll work alongside sales, product, and analytics teams to turn advanced energy risk models into clear, credible solutions for real trading desks. That means discovery conversations, tailored demos, proof‑of‑concepts, and helping clients see exactly how the platform fits their world.

No hard selling.

No slideware theatre.

Just smart conversations with people who know their markets.

What you’ll get (the bit that matters)

You’ll sit close to decision‑makers on both sides — traders, risk managers, and commercial leaders — and have genuine influence over how deals are shaped and how the product evolves.

You’ll work with real energy problems: power, gas, pricing risk, valuation, scenario analysis — not abstract demos that never see production.

You’ll be trusted to run complex engagements end‑to‑end: discovery >> solution design >> demo >> proposal. You won’t be handed scripts.

And you’ll be joining a business that’s investing heavily in its analytics platform, giving you room to grow into deeper technical leadership, product influence, or senior pre‑sales responsibility.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll partner with sales on complex opportunities, helping clients map their trading, risk, and valuation challenges to the platform’s analytics.

You’ll design and deliver tailored demos, proofs‑of‑concept, and technical walkthroughs that reflect real workflows in power and gas markets.

You’ll handle technical responses to RFPs and deep‑dive client questions — confidently, accurately, and without over‑engineering.

You’ll feed market insight back into product and analytics teams, shaping how the platform evolves based on what clients actually need.

And you’ll stay close to the market — regulation, risk practices, and how energy firms are really making decisions today.

What you’ll need (keep it tight)

You’ve worked in energy or commodities and understand trading, risk, or valuation from the inside — front office, middle office, or analytics.

You’re comfortable with quantitative concepts: time series, stochastic models, option pricing, simulations — enough to explain them clearly, not just name‑drop them.

You understand how analytics software works under the hood and can translate that into plain English for commercial and non‑technical audiences.

You’ve done technical pre‑sales, solution engineering, or client‑facing analytics work before and enjoy that interface.

And you can stand in front of a client, whiteboard a problem, and hold the room.

What happens next

If this sounds like the sort of work you already do — or want to do more of — apply and we’ll take it from there.

First step is a confidential conversation to understand your background and what you’re looking for. No pressure, no hard sell.
