Head of Structured Portfolio

Imagine a future where you shape and scale a structured portfolio that delivers commercial value through bespoke deals, disciplined portfolio management and strong P&L accountability in the energy transition

Join us in this role where you’ll lead and grow a newly established area within Trading & Revenue. You’ll lead a dedicated front-office organisation for structured products, ensuring profitable growth through clear ownership, commercial focus, and end-to-end P&L responsibility. Your main focus will be building a strong proprietary, structured business, enabling growth beyond Ørsted’s asset portfolio into new value pools. As it is a new area, building new capabilities and establishing processes and interfaces is an integral part of the role initially.

 

Welcome to Trading & Revenue

You’ll be part of the Trading & Revenue Senior Leadership Team and will be responsible for building and leading a Structured Portfolio organisation of approximately 22 FTEs; this team will play a key role in delivering on Trading & Revenue’s 2030 ambitions and is expected to deliver a sustainable P&L within agreed risk limits.

As a company, we are curious, collaborative, and results-focused, challenging each other respectfully and acting with integrity under pressure.

 

You’ll play an important role in:

  • building and managing a structured portfolio, focusing on active position management of structured / illiquid products, and using standard market products to hedge and manage positions with full P&L responsibility
  • finetuning the commercial strategy for your organization and ensuring disciplined execution
  • leading power origination as a discipline and providing origination support to other portfolios across T&R
  • ensuring effective contract lifecycle management, performance monitoring, and dispute handling in close collaboration with back office and risk
  • building and managing relationships with counterparties and overseeing the deal pipeline across markets
  • working closely with analytics, trading, portfolio management and risk to ensure robust pricing, valuation, and implementation of structured transactions.

 

To succeed in the role, you:

  • bring senior level leadership experience and P&L responsibility from structured trading, structuring, origination, or pricing environments within an energy (trading) company or equivalent experience
  • combine strong commercial acumen with hands on experience from a structured trading & origination environment
  • have led and developed teams and feel motivated by building new capabilities and organisations
  • understand portfolio management and valuation concepts and how to optimise exposure and profits within risk limits
  • communicate with credibility at senior stakeholder level and collaborate effectively across trading, risk, analytics and operations
  • act with integrity, decisiveness, and a solutions focused mindset in complex, high stakes environments.

 

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.
