Within the Market, Grid & Offshore Concepts (MGO) department, the European System Concepts (ESC) team actively contributes to tackling the challenges of integrated European electricity markets in order to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, ensure security of supply, and maintain affordable prices across Europe. These challenges include:

Designing and implementing methodologies and processes to provide cross-border capacity to the European forward, day-ahead, intraday and balancing markets, as well as managing grid congestion efficiently.
Ensuring that the European regulatory framework (Electricity Regulation, FCA, CACM, SOGL network codes) remains fit for purpose and continues to define the principles of the market design.

We are looking for a new colleague to strengthen the team as a European Electricity Markets Expert
