Gas Quant Structurer

We are seeking a highly quantitative professional to join the Gas Deal Structuring team and support the growth of our European gas portfolio. This role offers a unique opportunity to work within an entrepreneurial front‑office team, contributing directly to quantitative modelling, valuation, and transaction structuring across a wide range of gas products.

Responsibilities include the following:

Quantitative Modelling: Develop, own, and continuously enhance pricing models that capture optionality, asset flexibility, and complex payoff profiles. Ensure model robustness through rigorous testing and clear documentation of assumptions, limitations, and calibration methodologies. Contribute to the design and development of production-grade valuation tools, back‑testing engines, and advanced analytics.

Deal Valuation & Structuring: Deliver robust quantitative valuations, perform sensitivity and stress analyses, and ensure transparent, well‑documented, and defensible pricing outcomes. Propose structuring and hedging solutions that enhance portfolio fit, risk‑adjusted returns and improve capital efficiency. Design innovative structures in response to commercial requirements and evolving market conditions.

Collaboration & Communication: Build strong relationships with key stakeholders, including Origination and Trading teams, as well as internal functional departments. Prepare analytically robust internal memos and support internal governance and approval processes. Actively contribute to knowledge sharing within the team.

We are keen to hear from candidates with strong theoretical foundation and practical experience in quantitative finance, including derivatives, option theory, and numerical methods (e.g. Monte Carlo simulation, PDEs). We’d also like to see the following:

BSc or MSc in a quantitative discipline such as Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Strong programming skills with experience in numerical analysis, data analytics, prototyping, and automation. Hands‑on experience in Python is essential; C++ is a plus.

Previous experience as a Structurer, Quant, Strat, or Quant Developer in a trading or front‑office environment, with strong pricing expertise.

Prior exposure to European gas markets and gas transactions (e.g. storage, swing contracts, transport, LNG, gas options) is highly desirable.

Excellent interpersonal, communication, and presentation skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.

Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent deals and projects while collaborating effectively with team members.

Working knowledge of the Azure ecosystem and experience building data engineering pipelines is a plus.

CQF qualification is desired but not essential.
