Job Description
Your mission
Shortterm power traders need a mind to reason within and outside the box a playful heart and the courage to decide.
Your profile
Flexpower Traders work to facilitate the energy transition with bold and rapid decision making. Our traders work in shifts to cover the time when our clients assets deliver power: always. Short term electricity trading requires you to observe the state of the grid and the market in realtime. You monitor fundamental factors influencing prices such as wind and solar output the production of various conventional plants the energy flow between neighboring countries the state of the grid temperature demand and the behavior of actors on continuous markets such as EPEX Spot. You use this information to (hopefully) make profitable trading decisions. When you make mistakes (which you will) or you spot patterns and have ideas about new strategies you do analysis to check your intuition against data. Trading can be an extremely fun exhilarating experience; however you need the ability to change your mind focus under pressure and have the emotional maturity to step away from your keyboard when it is not the time to fight.
Communication is essential in this role as shortterm power trading is done within a shift team of around 6 traders who will support and carry you throughout the week. Furthermore you will work closely with engineers who will help you build tools and whom you will help to create performant algorithms. The best traders tend to love the market as (some) kids love computer games. This is a job where passion beats talent any time of the day.
