Job Description
Ready to shape commercial strategy in one of the UK's most dynamic energy markets? Do you enjoy turning market intelligence into growth opportunities, influencing senior stakeholders, and helping customers navigate an increasingly complex energy landscape? As a Commercial Lead within EDF Business & Wholesale Services, you'll play a key role in driving profitable growth, strengthening customer outcomes, and helping businesses make confident energy decisions.
The Opportunity
As a Commercial Lead, you'll sit at the heart of our Business Supply function, helping to shape and deliver the commercial growth agenda across our portfolio. Working closely with sales, trading, pricing, product, and operational teams, you'll use market, customer, and competitor insight to identify opportunities, improve commercial performance, and influence decisions that deliver sustainable value. Your work will directly support EDF's journey towards An Electric Britain, helping organisations navigate the energy transition with confidence.
This is a hybrid role, offering the flexibility to work from home alongside regular collaboration with colleagues in our Exeter office.
You'll join a highly collaborative environment, partnering with stakeholders across the business to connect commercial strategy with operational delivery. Working arrangements can be tailored in line with team and business requirements, providing flexibility while ensuring strong engagement with colleagues, customers, and partners.
This is an opportunity to broaden your commercial expertise across sales performance, portfolio management, product development, pricing, and regulatory change. You'll gain exposure to senior decision-making, emerging market developments, and industry-wide change programmes, while helping shape propositions and customer experiences that strengthen EDF's position in an increasingly competitive market.
