What made you make the move to Centrica Energy?
I’ve been in Trade Support Power for 2.5 years, whilst studying for my master’s degree and part of my Bachelor’s degree. Back then, I was highly motivated to join Centrica Energy, as I had heard so much positive feedback in terms of the opportunities for career development. In Trade Support I was presented to a role with great responsibility for operations, wide and useful knowledge for different departments, and the possibility to expand my responsibility for the team and my colleagues. As I was seeking new opportunities at the end of my studies, I was introduced to the Graduate Programme for Business Management Analysts. I was eager to pursue this opportunity, as I saw it as a great step in an exciting direction, being able to expand my current knowledge, apply my academic background and hopefully become a valuable asset for Centrica Energy.
What do you do in your current rotation?
As a part of the Business Management team, we are responsible for running functional and operational assessments for any new initiatives, for example, from the front office. Depending on the initiative, it requires communication and collaboration across various teams and stakeholders to ensure optimal setup and implementation.
The first task I have been assigned is to assess our trading limits, this entails limits set at our clearing houses, exchanges, TSOs, internal limits set by our risk teams and compliance, ultimately affecting our traders. I have to compile an overview of these limits, their products and teams, along with many other details, before finally mapping the processes so that we are certain to comply with all involved teams.
