Power Trader | European Prop Markets (France, Spain, Italy, Germany)

Location: London
Experience: Ideally 10+ years
Sector: Power Trading

About the Role

We’re working with a leading proprietary trading house to identify a senior Power Trader with strong experience across European markets, particularly France, Spain, Italy, and Germany.

You’ll be joining a high-performing trading desk with a primary focus on proprietary trading strategies across continental European power markets, alongside some flow exposure. The role offers highly competitive desk economics, including a fixed percentage of PnL performance compensation and a very conservative desk cost structure.

The focus is on short-term and proprietary trading strategies, leveraging market interconnectivity and volatility to deliver consistent returns.

There is also potential exposure to gas and carbon markets depending on your experience and interest.

Key Responsibilities

  • Execute and manage proprietary power trading strategies across France, Spain, Italy, and Germany
  • Identify and capitalise on cross-border opportunities and arbitrage, particularly around interconnectors
  • Collaborate with analysts and developers to enhance models, tools, and data-driven strategies
  • Monitor fundamentals, market trends, and regulatory developments
  • Work closely with risk and operations teams to ensure robust trade management and reporting

What We’re Looking For

  • Ideally 10+ years of experience as a Power Trader running proprietary trading strategies
  • Proven PnL track record and deep understanding of European power markets
  • Strong proprietary trading experience is essential
  • Exposure to interconnectors or PPAs is a strong plus
  • Broader understanding of gas and carbon markets is beneficial
  • Sharp analytical mindset, entrepreneurial approach and strong commercial judgement

Location

London-based, with flexibility for European market coverage

If you’re an experienced European Power Trader looking for a new challenge within a well-backed proprietary trading environment, please reach out in confidence.
