Company Description: AFRY Management Consulting provides leading consulting and advisory services covering the whole value chain in energy. Our vision is to be the most recommended advisor for the energy transition. The secret to our success is our people. Do you want to think beyond the ordinary and help our clients to make an impact? Are you challenging others and making bold decisions, always taking a stand for what you believe in? We are looking for great people to join our team of energy analysts/consultants. We are currently recruiting for our Madrid team, but we have regular opportunities in our other offices: Bangkok, Beijing, Berlin, Dubai, Dusseldorf, Helsinki, London, Oxford, Milan, New York, Oslo, Paris, Stockholm, Vienna, and Zurich.
The challenges of decarbonization, decentralization, and digitalization 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 advisor for the energy transition. If you are as interested as we are in this dynamic industry, we would love to hear from you. You will have the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience to become an industry specialist within a stimulating and supportive environment. Our team specializes in all aspects of the energy transition. We offer strategic and commercial advice, develop policy and regulations, model systems and markets, and support transactions. We pride ourselves on our in-depth analysis and strong client relationships. Often the work is office-based, but there are many opportunities to travel for shorter trips for client meetings or for entire projects where work is on the client site. You will join over 600 experts with a presence across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas who regularly collaborate across offices to deliver projects. For individuals looking for international experience, we can also offer secondments to other offices.
As a primary responsibility, you will support AFRY consulting activities for a wide range of clients - including major financial investors, the largest Iberian and international utilities, government, and regulatory bodies - through projects carried out mainly in Spain, Portugal, and Latin America.
Qualifications: Below we explain the main skills that we look for in our analysts/consultants:
Advanced analytical and quantitative skills: We undertake a lot of complex analysis, a good proportion of which is numerical, so we are looking for people with an aptitude for complex quantitative and qualitative analysis, statistics, manipulation of large data, and diverse mathematical models. This includes the ability to pay attention to detail and use MS Excel proficiently, understanding programming logic, and creative problem-solving skills.
Excellent team working and social skills: Virtually all the work we do requires team working, so if you have good communication skills and the ability to work well with others within a project team and wider office environment, you will fit in well. This involves organisation discipline, flexibility, and respecting commitments.
Fluency in Spanish and English: On the one hand, our clients are located in Spanish and non-Spanish speaking countries, and on the other hand our work requires day-to-day collaboration - in English - with other AFRY offices.
Writing and communication skills: Report-writing and presenting in public is a core part of our work, therefore we are also looking for the ability to explain complex information in a clear and logical way in English, both in writing and orally.
Proactivity and responsibility: You will be working in a commercial environment against budgets and deadlines, so you will need to be able to think for yourself, be proactive, and have a business-oriented mindset.
Passion for energy markets and policies: You have an understanding of European electricity or gas market dynamics, sustainability challenges, and energy policies.
Knowledge of market dynamics in Iberia and Latin America:
Programming skills: Knowledge of programming languages (e.g., Visual Basic, R, GAMS, Mosel, Python) will be highly valued.
Additionally, we highly value: no specific experience is required, although we will value positively internship experiences or a first one- or two-year role in a company in:
any energy field (e.g., trading, renewable energies, energy storage, hydrogen, retail markets, networks etc.)
any business practice (e.g., transactions, management consulting, engineering etc.)
database skills (e.g., MS Access or MS SQL Server)
data visualisation skills (e.g. Tableau, PowerBI)
knowledge of Portuguese, French or another European language
Additional Information: In AFRY Management Consulting, we offer a competitive salary, a performance-related bonus scheme, and an excellent range of benefits, including 25 days holiday.
