Full Job Description
Join Our TEAm as an Operational Process Risk Analyst!

About the Role:
Are you a strategic thinker who thrives on problem-solving and process improvement? As an Operational Process Risk Analyst at The Energy Authority (TEA), you'll play a pivotal role in modeling TEA's business operations, identifying inefficiencies, and optimizing processes upstream and downstream of Middle Office. Unlike traditional risk analysts, this role focuses on big-picture process enhancements rather than day-to-day controls, market risk, or credit risk functions.

You'll develop a deep understanding of TEA's risk framework, ensuring that operational processes align with business objectives while mitigating exposure to process risks in the wholesale energy markets. Your analytical mindset and ability to connect cross-departmental functions will drive efficiency and strategic advancements across TEA.

What You'll Do:
  • Process & Risk Assessment:
    • Analyze and improve workflows across departments to enhance operational efficiency.
    • Maintain a high-level understanding of risk reports and financial models used to measure TEA and Client exposures.
    • Research and model cross-departmental risk to optimize TEA's processes.
  • Testing & Implementation:
    • Develop testing plans for new products from a system risk perspective.
    • Contribute to Horizon Testing Plans and ensure Middle Office needs are met.
    • Collaborate with Compliance to establish processes for managing regulatory risk.
  • Process Optimization & Stakeholder Engagement:
    • Maximize existing tools to reduce manual workload and improve operational effectiveness.
    • Work cross-functionally on projects to drive process efficiency.
    • Identify and implement new processes that streamline workload and reduce redundancies.
  • Risk Management & Controls Support:
    • Maintain an understanding of risk and credit limits across TEA and its Clients.
    • Ensure Process Risk Procedures remain up to date.
    • Provide backup support to the controls analysts as needed.
  • Strategic & Organizational Support:
    • Lead and organize TEA's Trading System Management Team (TSMT) efforts, including agenda creation, meeting minutes, presentation preparation, and behind-the-scenes coordination.
    • Run Nights in White Satin evening processes independently, ensuring operational accuracy.

What We're Looking For:
  • Education & Experience:
    • Bachelor's degree in a technical or business-related discipline required; an advanced degree is a plus.
    • Minimum of five years of relevant experience in process assessment, risk management, or related fields.
  • Key Skills:
    • Strong analytical and big-picture thinking to assess cross-functional processes.
    • Experience researching and modeling risk across departments.
    • Ability to develop and execute structured testing plans for system risk management.
    • Excellent organizational skills to manage multiple projects and stakeholder needs.
    • Strong communication skills for cross-functional collaboration and executive reporting.

Why You'll Love Working Here:
  • High-Impact Role: Influence process improvements across TEA and its Clients.
  • Strategic Growth: Engage in cutting-edge risk assessment and process optimization.
  • Collaborative Culture: Work alongside top-tier professionals in a supportive and forward-thinking environment.
