Lead ConsultantAbout the Role
Senior Proprietary Power Trader (European Markets)
About the Opportunity We are partnering with a highly successful, privately owned proprietary trading and technology firm operating across global energy markets.
The business combines deep market expertise with cutting-edge technology, creating an entrepreneurial environment where traders are empowered to identify opportunities, develop new strategies and have genuine ownership over their trading activities. With a flat organisational structure and significant investment in data, technology and quantitative research, the company has become a major participant across multiple energy markets.
Alongside an established global derivatives business, the firm has built a rapidly expanding European power and gas trading division, supported by a market-leading data platform and proprietary algorithmic trading infrastructure. This creates an exceptional environment for discretionary traders who want access to first-class analytics while retaining the freedom to develop and execute their own trading strategies.
The Role An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Proprietary Power Trader to join a growing European Power trading desk.
This role offers significant autonomy, allowing traders to identify and execute opportunities across European power markets without restrictions on geographical focus or trading time horizons. The successful candidate will join a collaborative team of experienced traders, quantitative analysts and technology specialists, benefiting from industry-leading market data, proprietary models and sophisticated trading tools.
This is an ideal opportunity for an entrepreneurial trader looking to scale their strategies within a well-capitalised proprietary trading environment.
