• Build and improve fundamental electricity market models that directly support trading decisions
• Work in a newly formed team where you shape both the models and the way of working
• Collaborate daily with traders, analysts and tech teams to create real market impact Why choose Eneco?

At Eneco, you don’t just build models, you help shape the future of the energy market. In this role, your work contributes directly to better trading strategies and more efficient use of energy systems in Europe.

You’ll join a team that is being built from the ground up. That means you’ll have real influence: on tools, processes and the direction of the model landscape. At the same time, you work closely with experienced traders and analysts, learning fast and making an immediate impact.

You’ll experience a culture where collaboration and learning are central. You’re encouraged to test ideas, improve continuously and share insights across teams.

What you’ll do

As a Market Modeling Analyst, you focus on developing and improving fundamental models of the European electricity market. These models play a key role in helping traders and analysts make better, data-driven decisions.

In your day-to-day work, you connect and prepare large datasets that feed into the models. You develop a deep understanding of how these models behave and what drives their outcomes, ensuring their reliability and relevance. You will regularly backtest models to evaluate their performance under different market conditions and calibrate them to further improve accuracy and trading value.

A key part of the role is translating model outputs into clear and actionable insights for traders and analysts. At the same time, you continuously look for ways to improve existing models and explore opportunities for in-house development. As the team is still in an early phase, your role will naturally evolve, and you will contribute to building both the models and the team’s way of working.
