Why choose Eneco?

Power trading plays a central role in Eneco’s strategy and in advancing the energy transition. As renewable generation continues to grow, short‑term power markets are becoming more dynamic, fragmented and technically complex, creating opportunities for traders who understand the fundamentals and know when to act.

At Eneco, you operate in a professional trading environment with real risk capital and clear accountability. Decisions are data‑driven, market‑focused and taken close to the action, giving you ownership over your positions within a robust risk framework.

What you’ll do

As a Short‑Term Power Trader, you will develop and execute proprietary trading strategies across European power markets. You operate your own book, take calculated risk, and rely on deep fundamental analysis to identify short‑lived but high‑impact opportunities.This role is fast‑paced and technically demanding, requiring strong judgement, discipline and the confidence to act decisively when market conditions are right.

Is this about you?

You are a technically strong and analytically minded trader who thrives in fast‑moving, sometimes chaotic market conditions. You understand that success in short‑term power trading comes from preparation, patience and execution. You have:

• At least 5 years of trading experience, with 3+ years in a proprietary trading environment;
• Specific experience in short‑term power trading (not just long‑term or flow);
• A quantitative, technical or economics‑based academic background;
• Strong understanding of European power market fundamentals;
