What You Can Expect

At ENGIE, we are accelerating the energy transition by harnessing the power of renewable resources. Every day, our teams work to build a cleaner, more sustainable future. We need sharp minds to help us navigate the complexities of energy markets and protect the value we create. As a Hedging & Risk Advisor within the Renewables team, you will be at the heart of our market risk strategy. You will manage exposures, strengthen governance, and deliver data-driven insights that shape critical business decisions. Your work will directly support the financial performance and growth of our renewable energy fleet.

What You’ll Do

  • Risk Governance & Oversight: Establish and maintain market risk governance frameworks aligned with Group mandates; support and lead local risk committees through exposure analysis and hedging approvals. Ensure transparency, compliance, and timely escalation of risk-related decisions across the renewables portfolio.
  • Risk Identification & Exposure Management: Identify, map, and monitor market exposures across asset generation, PPAs, energy attributes, financial hedges, intermittency, curtailment, and pre-COD risks. Assess seasonal and forward market impacts on revenues, margins, and Settlement Price (S-P), partnering with Finance and Asset Management to deliver accurate forecasts.
  • Hedging Strategy Development & Execution: Develop, document, and refine tailored hedging strategies by exposure type, including energy attributes, basis risk, curtailment, and short-term market exposures. Collaborate with SEM portfolio and trading teams to structure and approve hedging solutions that optimize hedge effectiveness and portfolio resilience.
  • Performance Optimization & Market Analytics: Build and maintain analytical tools and dashboards that provide clear insights into risk exposure, energy margins, and financial performance. Benchmark DA, MA, and Real-Time performance to identify availability gaps and drive fleet-level optimization from an S-P perspective.
  • Digitalization & Process Enablement: Design scalable processes and digital tools for risk exposure tracking and revenue representation. Partner with stakeholders to automate workflows, improving data quality, speed of insight, and executive-level visibility.

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, or a related field.
  • Minimum 7 years of relevant experience in market risk analysis, hedging, or energy sector roles.
  • Demonstrated analytical and problem-solving capability, with proficiency in data analysis and visualization tools such as Python, Microsoft Fabric, and Power BI.
  • Applied experience supporting renewable energy assets, with an understanding of market structures, revenue mechanisms, and key commercial and risk drivers.
  • Ability to communicate complex concepts and ideas effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Exceptional organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic environment, and a proactive approach to process improvement.
