About us

Renewable electricity is the energy of the 21st century. To answer responsibly, TotalEnergies is investing massively in solar and wind power plants and battery energy storage assets in order to become one of the global top five producers of renewable energy by 2030.

In this context, we are looking to hire our new Senior Originator – Structured Origination Desk to join TotalEnergies Gas & Power (TEGP), headquartered in Geneva. The TEGP Origination Desk is, amongst others, in charge of originating new projects aiming to assist the Company in the transition to new energies, and the route to decarbonisation of the Company’s operations in light of the 2050 carbon neutrality objective

Our European trading hub is established in Geneva, which now bring together very large teams around trading activities: TotalEnergies Trading & Shipping (T&S) and TotalEnergies Gas and Power (TEGP).

TotalEnergies Gas and Power (TEGP) is the trading arm of TotalEnergies in the field of low carbon energies (mainly gas, LNG and power). As such, it operates in fast-evolving market dynamics influenced by internal and external factors that require constant adaptation and evolution.

Uncertainties specific to the trading environment (volatility of prices, supply & demand mismatches) are coupled with those coming from the broader energy sector (climate change policies, changes in the energy mix, developments of new energy sources, etc). In such context, TEGP helps to ensure growth and profitability to a key segment of the business in order to reach the objective of Carbon Neutrality by 2050.

Job dimension

You will operate under the close supervision of the Head of Structured Origination (N+1) and the Head of TEGP Origination (N+2). You will be working on the Trading floor in Geneva and you will be responsible for the development/origination of a portfolio of structured transactions in the fields listed below :

PPA solutions, Structured Power and cross-commodity flexibility options, tolling of physical power assets, power arbitrage opportunities involving infrastructure and/or regulatory constraints, sophisticated hedging solutions,very structured Pre financing deals, M&A etc..

This portfolio will cover markets globally, with a main focus on Europe and the US, but also on other continents where the Company has assets or business activity.

What you will do

You will have the primary responsibility for Trading developments from inception of the relationships with stakeholders through to the development or contract completion.

You will work closely with the Head of TEGP Origination, the VP Energy Management and the VP Front Office.

The primary focus of the development activity lies in countries with active energy traded markets (such as EUROPE and the US). In other countries with less active or less developed energy markets the primary role is expected to provide support to other businesses of the GRP Branch (such as PGE, REN, TSI, SUNPOWER and SAFT). The recently deployed activities in the Company in the field of decarbonisation might extend the scope outside of Europe and the US.

You will also interface with the Gas Power & Emissions Trading Desk and with the other TEGPL desks in order to define, generate and execute the projects which will provide the future asset base for the Company. Fluid coordination and communication is absolutely essential to success.

You will also interface with the various desks of the new Energy Management Division that will be involved in operating contracts originated by the Structured Origination desk.

Key development skills and responsibilities include:
