The Role
Reporting to the Energy Markets Operations Lead, you will manage the real-time performance of trading strategies across Australia's energy markets.

- Conduct in-depth analysis of market conditions, network constraints and competitor behaviour
- Identify and validate new trading strategies in collaboration with the wider Energy Management team
- Track and report on trading performance against the market and against competitors
- Provide market insight and input into the tools and dashboards the team relies on, working alongside the software function
About You
- Strong understanding of Australia's energy markets, ideally with exposure to the NEM Dispatch Engine
- Background in energy trading, market analysis or risk modelling
- Sharp analytical mindset, with the ability to interpret market signals and complex systems, and explain them clearly to others
- Excellent communication skills and confidence engaging across commercial and technical teams
