Junior Hydrologist

Position purpose:

My client is a London-Based Prop House who operate in the European gas power trading space, and have been extremely successful running a number of different strategies. The team focuses on analysing statistical and fundamental weather data to take trading positions. Their culture is very relaxed - there is no dress code, and you are judged on the quality of your work rather than time spent at the desk, with an exceptional bonus-driven compensation structure.

Role:

Clearly within the European energy space; meteorology hydrology can provide a significant edge to trading and currently the fund is looking to build out its expertise in this area to better cover the Nordic as well as the French / German power markets. As a result they are looking to take on a strong Hydrology expert (Junior or Senior) who will be able to develop advanced hydrological modeling/short term runoff forecasting for hydropower systems in the Nordic countries as well as developing methods for operational assessment of snow water equivalent in hydropower catchment areas such as theAlps.

Initially the focus is to build river discharges reservoir inflows for Europe (principally Scandinavia, Alps Spain) but then also expand these models to look at China, US, Australia and New Zealand.
