• Assist in setting up markets, products, or scheduling systems for European power and related operational processes.

• Nominate against interconnector transmission rights and track capacity auction results, transfers, and curtailment impacts.

• Assist in reconciling trading activities and support imbalance, settlement and operational queries.

• Develop ad-hoc operational analysis reports and contribute to improvements in desk processes and controls.

• Lead or support change management projects to handle market changes or onboard new markets, where appropriate.

• Provide timely, accurate scheduling support for CCI’s European gas positions, including nominations, confirmations, and resolution of operational exceptions, as required.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in a numerate or technical discipline — Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Economics, or similar; candidates from other backgrounds with strong quantitative ability will also be considered.

• At least two years' experience in power scheduling; knowledge of interconnector nominations is a plus.

• Understanding of European power markets, day-ahead scheduling, nominations, and imbalance exposure.

• Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to interact effectively with trading desks, operations teams, counterparties, and market operators.

• Strong work ethic, attention to detail and willingness to work occasional weekends on a rotational basis.

• Experience with Continental market coupling, cross-border capacity allocation and TSO nomination platforms.

• Prior use of an ETRM or scheduling system in a live operational setting.

• SQL, Python or Power BI capability for reconciliation, automation and reporting.
