Energy Markets Analyst (Graduate position)

Company Description

AFRY Management Consulting is a leading advisor to the world’s energy industry, accelerating our clients’ energy transition and sustainability journey. With a team of about 800 consultants, across 20 offices on 4 continents, we are committed to accelerating change towards a sustainable world in the interest of future generations. We are passionate about transforming industries and creating value for clients and society. We strongly believe that change happens when exceptional people with brave ideas come together.

At AFRY Management Consulting, we work globally to address challenges and opportunities in the energy, bioindustry, infrastructure, industrial and future mobility sectors through:

• Strategic advice
• Forward looking market analysis
• Operational and digital transformation
• M&A and transaction services
• Sustainability consulting

The challenges of decarbonisation, decentralisation and digitalisation require us to continually challenge our existing ideas to remain at the forefront of thinking on the future of the energy industry. Our vision is to be the most recommended adviser for the energy transition.

We are looking for great people to join our team of MCD energy consultants based in our newly established office in Athens. If you are as interested as we are in this dynamic industry, we would love to hear from you.

Job Description

We are strengthening our rapidly growing energy consulting team with focus on Strategy, Transactions, Market Analysis, Power & Heat Generation and ODT (Organisational and Digital Transformation) in our office in Athens. We are looking to hire Analysts, confident and enthusiastic about the work they do, to be part of our interdisciplinary team.

In this entry consulting role, you will have an exciting opportunity to provide your contribution to the energy transition by supporting private and public organisations in making challenging sustainable investment and strategic decisions as they are going through their decarbonisation journey.

As a primary responsibility, you will support AFRY’s consulting activities for a wide range of clients who are actively engaged in the energy transition.

Qualifications

It would be great if you had the following skills, but don’t worry if you don’t tick every box, we’ll help you develop along the way.

• We undertake a lot of complex analysis, a good proportion of which is numerical, so we are looking for people with an aptitude for quantitative and qualitative analysis, including statistics, and the ability to pay attention to detail and preferably use MS Excel proficiently. A degree in STEM is a definite benefit.
• Virtually all the work we do requires team working so if you have good communication skills and the ability to collaborate well with others within a project team and wider office environment you will fit in well.
• In addition, report writing is a core part of our work and so we are also looking for the ability to explain complex information in a clear and logical way in English and Greek using both Word and PowerPoint.
• You will assist with business development by preparing proposals and other sales material and helping to sell services in client meetings.
• You will be working in a commercial environment against budgets and deadlines so you will need to be able to think for yourself, be pro-active and have a business-oriented mindset.
• If you have an understanding of Greek and European energy market dynamics and energy policy this is a definite benefit, but not essential.

As we work globally, being multi-lingual is an advantage, so please do let us know your level in any language in which you have spoken and/or written ability, and any experience that you have in energy markets around the world.
