About The Position

The Director of Power Marketing will be responsible for sourcing, structuring, and negotiating offtake agreements for TGE’s development-stage and operational projects. This role bridges development, analytics, and trading — identifying counterparties, building relationships, and securing commercial agreements (hedges, PPAs, RA, capacity or tolling structures) that maximize project value and risk-adjusted returns. The ideal candidate brings a solid understanding of wholesale power markets, financial structures, and renewable offtake dynamics, coupled with the ability to drive deals from first contact through execution.

Requirements

  • 12+ years of experience in power origination, structured energy marketing, or commercial trading.
  • Proven ability to originate and close transactions in ISO-organized markets (CAISO, ERCOT, PJM, or NYISO).
  • Familiarity with renewable PPAs, capacity markets, RA programs, and nodal pricing fundamentals.
  • Strong quantitative and negotiation skills with demonstrated commercial judgment.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Engineering, or related field; advanced degree preferred.
  • Understanding of project development drivers, counterparty credit, and risk allocation.

Nice To Haves

  • Entrepreneurial mindset with comfort in a fast-moving, growth-stage IPP environment.
  • Commercially creative yet disciplined in structuring risk-balanced deals.
  • Excellent communicator capable of building relationships across counterparties and internal teams.
  • Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and confident managing multiple negotiations in parallel.

Responsibilities

  • Originate and structure offtake opportunities for TGE’s BESS and PV-BESS pipeline across U.S. ISOs.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with utilities, CCAs/munis, retailers, corporates, and trading counterparties.
  • Lead commercial discussions and term-sheet negotiations for PPAs, capacity products, and energy hedges.
  • Support financial modeling and valuation through collaboration with analytics and risk teams.
  • Monitor and respond to RFPs, bilateral solicitations, and corporate procurement initiatives.
  • Coordinate with development, legal, and asset management to align deal structure with project timelines and lender expectations.
  • Contribute to TGE’s commercial strategy for merchant vs. contracted optimization, including forward hedging and RA monetization.
  • Maintain a working knowledge of policy, market rule changes, and pricing trends impacting storage economics.
  • Provide leadership and mentorship to the team members, managing performance and fostering a collaborative and inclusive work environment.
