Castleton Commodities International is hiring a European Power Scheduler for its London office. The role supports daily energy scheduling activities across power and natural gas, including position reconciliation, interactions with power TSOs, and the development of ad hoc operational reports and processes. It provides direct exposure to physical energy trading operations in a dynamic environment where nomination accuracy, deadline discipline, and sound judgment are critical.

Responsibilities

  • Ensure accurate and timely balancing and nomination activity across CCI's European power market areas.
  • Coordinate with trading functions to reconcile positions and ensure nominated volumes are aligned to traded activity before gate closure.
  • Interact with power TSOs, counterparties, and relevant market operators to resolve unmatched, rejected, or amended nominations.
  • Assist in setting up markets, products, or scheduling systems for European power and related operational processes.
  • Nominate against interconnector transmission rights and track capacity auction results, transfers, and curtailment impacts.
  • Assist in reconciling trading activities and support imbalance, settlement, and operational queries.
  • Develop ad-hoc operational analysis reports and contribute to improvements in desk processes and controls.
  • Lead or support change management projects to handle market changes or onboard new markets, where appropriate.
  • Provide timely, accurate scheduling support for CCI’s European gas positions, including nominations, confirmations, and resolution of operational exceptions, as required.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
