Research Analyst - Gas and LNG (Power BI experience)

Role Purpose 

We monitor key events and conduct research to produce thought-provoking reports, data models, and presentations. From asset valuation to corporate reports, from market supply-demand research to price-forecasting, and from the regional to the global, our analysis helps shape our customers’ commercial strategies. 

We also support bespoke consulting projects, diving deeper into our data to answer unique questions. We help our Sales team retain and win new business by spending time with customers and answering questions that matter to them. We work closely with colleagues in our Data and Product functions to maintain the quality of our published data and to deliver content via our growing Lens platform.  

Through carrying out primary research, responding to customer questions, and presenting to industry stakeholders, you will build relationships and a network of contacts at key operators, national bodies, and other relevant institutions. Over time you will gain specialist knowledge and develop the skills you require to progress your career at Wood Mackenzie.

• You will be a key user of Wood Mackenzie’s proprietary gas forecasting model.  

• You will collaborate with other gas, power and upstream analysts to create our long-term global gas market outlook and help interpret modelling results to communicate our views to clients. 

• You will have relevant experience, skills or knowledge that you can apply to the role, allowing you to contribute to our research from day one. Your existing knowledge will enhance our coverage as you develop your career.
