(Senior) Analyst, Natural Gas, North America

Aurora’s mission is to provide data-driven intelligence to support the energy transition. To support this mission, we are looking for a (Senior) Analyst to join our Global Energy Markets team in Austin, Texas. This position is being recruited at the Analyst level, with the potential to hire at Senior Analyst for candidates who demonstrate prior experience and impact relevant to the role.

The Senior Analyst appointment is made selectively based on demonstrated scope, autonomy, and expertise. The Global Energy Markets team produces Aurora’s central outlook and scenarios for the development of gas, oil, and coal markets, which underpin Aurora’s analysis of power markets. The successful candidate will focus on US, Canadian, and Mexican commodities markets, in addition to broader analysis of global markets, with a focus on generation fuels, especially natural gas.

You will play a critical role in all aspects of product delivery and development, as well as client engagement, and represent the company externally. You will generate research in North American commodities markets, deliver existing publications, conduct novel analysis, identify client business opportunities, and develop new services. Although the role is based in our Research team, the successful candidate will also play a role in supporting projects undertaken in our Advisory team – which in the past has included transactions and strategic advisory assignments.

This is an exciting opportunity for experienced analysts or consultants from top-tier strategic or economic consultancies, energy companies, financial services companies, or knowledge-driven firms or institutions. Prior experience in natural gas is essential. You will report to the Austin-based Global Energy Markets product manager and work within Aurora’s larger Research team, spread across multiple offices.

Generate Aurora’s research in North American natural gas markets and work closely with Aurora’s commodities modelling and various North American power teams to develop regular market forecasts and novel analysis. Produce regular reports on North American and global gas, oil, and coal markets to support Aurora’s commodities forecasts. Communicate findings to clients through meetings, calls, workshops, and conferences.

Plan and deliver high-quality, long-term projects for Aurora’s research teams across different North American markets. Coordinate with other teams in the company across global offices and keep colleagues and senior stakeholders informed of developments in North America. g.
