About The Position

In a time of constant change and possibility we need new talent to pursue commercial opportunities, fueled by world-class insight and expertise. We're always striving for more innovative digital solutions, sustainable outcomes and closer collaboration across our company and beyond, and you could be part of that too. Together we continue to grow as the world's leading energy company! The Analytics & Insights team is responsible for providing analysis of Oil, Gas, Power and Emissions markets to the trading and origination teams within Trading & Shipping. Analysis performed by the team provides commercial value by keeping traders, originators, and management informed of underlying views that affect the markets as well as a toolkit to quantify these views and their price discovery. The Market Strategist role resides in the Gas and Power Strategist team (part of the larger analytic function). One of the core elements of this discipline is to identify changes in supply and demand fundamentals within different regions of the market and communicate the likely impact on price action to the trading and origination teams. This key role will work alongside the bench to provide such analysis in service of creating models, foundational views and trading strategies in line with changing market dynamics. Analysis performed by the individual and team will have a direct linkage to commercial value creation and assist in keeping traders, originators, and management informed of underlying fundamental views that affect the markets. In addition to the above, this role will involve the creation of market and fundamental views that drive the valuation of long-term deals in the markets covered. These views will require the development and maintenance of models, data and assumptions to provide a quantitative and fundamental framework for valuation in the long-term space as well as a deep understanding of the short-term view. The role will involve communicating these views externally to customers and counterparties as well as internally to originators, structurers, traders and other strategists. The role will also involve influencing strategy at the group level to help meet bp's broader ambitions. The role involves supporting our North American power trading and origination team based in Houston or New York (location is flexible). The primary focus will be the coverage of Western US power markets. The role also covers the CA REC market. This will involve working in a squad to develop, maintain and continuously improve the tools and reports necessary to provide a real time view of fundamentals that drive market dynamics that focus on the team's main exposures and opportunities. This role will also involve working closely with the west gas team to ensure an alignment of views on areas of overlap as well as working with other teams as required to ensure the correct flow of information.
