**Description & Requirements**

We are seeking a talented, highly motivated individual to join BloombergNEF\’s Transition Risk and Alignment research team as a Data Lead, based in London. You will contribute to our quantitative models that support BNEF\’s analysis of company-level exposure to the energy transition. This role is a 6-month fixed-term contract and is ideal for someone with experience in data science, quantitative analysis, or related fields, with a passion for climate and the transition to a low-carbon economy.

**Our team:**

You will be based in our London office as part of the Transition Risk and Alignment team for BloombergNEF – the world\’s leading independent provider of analysis, tools, data and research to decision makers leading the future of energy.

**BNEF Team Ethos:**

To succeed at BNEF, we need people who can work in an independent manner and show initiative to develop their own viewpoints, yet be collaborative with colleagues. We donu2019t rely on the status quo, we look for innovative yet pragmatic thinking that turns big ideas into real insights and impact. Working at BNEF sometimes feels chaotic; we need teams that are both dynamic and structured to generate the unique perspectives our clients really value. Our teams are diverse, creative, focused, and fun!

**What\’s the role?**

Despite headwinds the last five years, the low-carbon transition has maintained momentum. Last year, companies and consumers combined to deliver $2.1 trillion in energy transition investments, up 11% from 2024. Financial institutions have been instrumental in enabling the deployment of low-carbon assets. However identifying the exposure of investment and lending portfolios to the low-carbon transition remains a challenge. As part of the Transition Risk and Alignment team, you will be responsible for building and operating quantitative models that track the exposure of companies to the energy transition. In this role, you will gain experience at the nexus between the net-zero transition, financial reporting and corporate sustainability.

Balance multiple parallel tasks, be highly organized and have rigorous attention to detail.
Collaborate with integrity and drive with colleagues and clients from different cultures and countries.

**You\’ll need to have:**
A Bacheloru2019s or Masteru2019s degree in a related field such as Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative discipline.
Proficiency in Python and SQL.
Strong quantitative skills and comfort with working effectively with large datasets and complex models.
Internship and/or work experience (1-2 years) in the energy, commodities, finance industries.
