Are you an experienced Energy Market Modeller with first exposure to asset transactions and business case support? If so, please read on!

Role Purpose

We are looking for a dynamic individual to join this newly created team, focused on providing price projections and other key inputs for Power & Renewables financing and transaction activities of large investors, banks and the project development units of large energy companies. In this role, you will help to apply and continuously develop a suite of transaction/valuation support solutions to provide companies and deal teams with fast and comprehensive data inputs, price projections and sensitivity analyses, building on our market-leading data and modelling services.

Main Responsibilities

Initially you will be working with other members of the Transaction Support team and our broader research groups, to help build out the suite of transaction support offerings for European Power & Renewables clients. You will also engage with thought leaders from other Wood Mackenzie units to drive and enhance development of specific aspects of the Transaction Support Service and its interplay with neighbouring units. Once established, your tasks will expand to delivering client assignments and further content creation. You will also support the shaping and pitching of client engagements and supporting business development activity.

Please note this is a hybrid role with a mix of working from home and regular office presence in one of our offices in Spain, Germany or the UK. Some travel will be expected as part of the role.

About You

  • You have 4+ years of experience in Europe’s power and renewables markets, with a strong understanding of power plant technologies, operations, and economics.
  • You have first working experience of project management in valuations and/or transactions within the sector – ideally in a consulting or financial advisory capacity.
  • You are an experienced user of power market simulation software (e.g. Plexos, Aurora by Energy Exemplar, BID 3, Origin etc.) and understand how market characteristics like power plant dispatch, demand from heat pumps and electric vehicles, ancillary services or grid constraints can be reflected in a modelling setup. Development and coding competence for these models is advantageous.
  • You can develop and maintain complex projections, data sets and other valuation inputs for various types of power assets and interact confidently with a client deal team or financial advisors, backed by bespoke market modelling and Wood Mackenzie’s data bases.
  • You regularly work across timezones, countries and cultures.
  • You are collaborative and have an analytical mindset.
  • You will have strong written and verbal communication skills in English – with fluency in other European languages beneficial.

Expectations At Wood Mackenzie we set high expectations for ourselves and our people when it comes to behaviour and capabilities as we believe it builds a culture where everyone can thrive and have real impact.

  • Act with integrity - behaving ethically, morally and in line with our values.
  • Collaborate across boundaries - forging impactful relationships beyond our immediate team.
  • Take ownership & accountability - delivering on our commitments and owning the outcome.
  • Be agile in change - maintaining high performance through disruption and change.
  • Inspire through excellence - motivating others to deliver exceptional results.
  • Build talent - facilitating career and personal growth.

We are a hybrid working company and the successful applicant will be expected to be physically present in the office at least 2-3 days per week to foster and contribute to a collaborative environment, but this may be subject to change in the future. The nature of this role precludes it from consideration for part-time or flexible working arrangements.
