    Description

    :

    Data is Energy

    EDF Trading is a data business too. Trading is transitioning into a data driven business. High quality data and the agility of the analysis are becoming the differentiator. EDF Trading has a leading footprint in the European energy markets and wants to monetise and optimise data as an asset. ​

    The European energy space is complex and has a huge appetite for data. Power production from renewables in response to weather, capacity limitations across borders, storage optimisation modelling... these are just some of the complex data opportunities we trade on every day.

    We're looking for talented people who share our passion for data to join our team and seize these opportunities with us.
