Job Description

Join us, be part of more.

We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that’s energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently – we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it and mend it.

About your team:

At Centrica Energy, our mission is to move it.

We’re energy movers by nature. We’re a global renewable energy trading company which helps move energy from source to use – powering businesses, homes, and societies as they transition to a new sustainable energy future. If the idea of working to create a sustainable energy future also moves you, we may very well be the right place for you.

Are you interested in joining a growing multinational business and playing a central role in its journey? We are seeking a Senior Portfolio Manager for our Green Desk trading team to support the continued expansion of our power certificate trading activities. Experience in the renewable energy sector is required.

About the role

As a Senior Portfolio Manager, you will join a team of skilled colleagues and contribute to Centrica Energy’s ambitious renewable growth targets. You will actively participate in developing new trading strategies and products, exploring new market entries, and managing the risk of our exposure. Our activities include trading instruments such as Guarantees of Origins, REGOs, and ROCs.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Pricing of new upstream and downstream leads

  • Monitoring market developments and identifying business opportunities

  • Developing new trading strategies

  • Managing the risks associated with our certificate trading activities

  • Innovating new products which add value for our customers

  • Engaging in daily conversations with external and internal stakeholders
