Trading and Risk
Senior Portfolio Manager
Imagine a future where you shape the hedging strategy and commercial performance of Ørsted’s European wind power portfolio
Join us in this role where you’ll turn market insights and portfolio analysis into commercial strategies for our European wind power assets. You’ll assess complex exposures, identify value opportunities, and help develop dynamic hedging strategies that balance risk and return across the portfolio.
Welcome to Trading & Revenue
You’ll be part of Asset Portfolio Management where you together with your colleagues will manage the market exposure of Ørsted’s European wind power assets, including corporate power purchase agreement exposures. You’ll collaborate with colleagues across Trading, Origination, Risk Management, Finance, and the asset business to develop and execute portfolio strategies.
As a team, we combine diverse market, commercial, quantitative, and strategic perspectives. We share knowledge, challenge ideas constructively, and succeed as one.
You’ll play an important role in:
- driving active portfolio management and continuously assessing complex, non-linear exposures
- developing structural market views and translating them into commercial portfolio strategies
- shaping dynamic hedging strategies using standard market products and structured transactions
- identifying opportunities to diversify risk, improve the portfolio’s position, and maximise value
- structuring and valuing transactions and performing risk assessments using quantitative models, including Python
- communicating recommendations clearly and influencing decisions with senior stakeholders across Trading, Origination, Risk Management, Finance, and the asset business.
To succeed in the role, you:
- bring a strong market and commercial mindset, supported by experience in portfolio management, trading, or a related energy-market role
- have a strong understanding of European power markets, and ideally gas markets, and can connect market developments with portfolio opportunities and risks
- can combine commercial judgement, market insights, and quantitative analysis in Python tools to make clear, well-founded recommendations
- hold a master’s degree in economics, finance, energy, engineering, or another relevant quantitative field, or have equivalent experience
- communicate complex analysis in a clear, practical way and can engage and influence stakeholders across different functions and levels
- enjoy working collaboratively to navigate complexity, challenge established approaches and deliver results as one team.
Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
