What is the primary gas hub of focus? The desk will focus heavily on the Title Transfer Facility (TTF) in the Netherlands, the primary pricing benchmark for European gas.

Is a CV required for the initial application? No, you can apply using just your LinkedIn profile link to maintain initial discretion.

Expert Analysis

In 2026, the European gas market remains structurally changed post-2022, with TTF volatility providing high-margin opportunities for nimble brokerages. A “Team Move” to a US powerhouse is a classic power play; the brokers gain the backing of a global balance sheet while the firm secures an instant, revenue-generating London foothold.

Location & Logistics Guide

The role is headquartered in London, the global nerve center for energy trading. Logistics involve navigating the high-pressure environment of a trading floor, likely in the City or Canary Wharf. Constant communication with US teams is required, often necessitating “late-market” coordination with the New York/Houston opening. Wikipedia URL:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London

Career Path

Successful brokers in a team move often advance to Head of Desk or Director of Energy for the EMEA region. Given the firm’s growth trajectory, there is also a clear path towards Partner status or leading the expansion into other emerging markets like Hydrogen or Environmental credits.
