Brisbane, Australia Shell Full time

**What’s the role?**

The Gas Forecasting Analyst role is responsible for developing and managing both long-term and short-term demand forecasts over the life of customer contracts.

You will be responsible for ensuring submissions to the market operator are compliant with regulations. Accurate and timely forecasts enable the Trading team to make informed decisions and implement hedging strategies to minimize market exposure.

You will liaise heavily with stakeholders within Trading & Supply, and the Retail Energy team and may deal directly with various customers to obtain information regarding current & future operations.

Your accountabilities include the following:

- Develop and maintain long-term and short-term demand forecasts in Gas Energy Markets and associated Environmental product markets for Commercial & Industrial (C&I), Small to Medium Enterprise (SME), and Retailer LFH (Mass Market) segments.
- Manage and monitor Gas forecast submission to AEMO ensuring ongoing compliance is demonstrated.
- Develop and maintain models, continually updating, training & improving output to ensure desired accuracy standards are met.
- Build performance monitoring tools to track and report forecasting accuracy driving continuous improvement.
- Develop and monitor confidence intervals to reflect potential range of outcomes from forecast due to differing climatic conditions.
- Ensure all contracted load is included in relevant long-term and short-term forecasts & submitted to Trading in a timely manner.
- Liaise with Account Managers or directly with customers to ensure forecasts are based on the most up to date information.
- Adjust forecasts as necessary to include ramp up or down in usage, expected future outages, scheduled maintenance, and changes in growth expectations.
- Prepare ongoing Emissions Liability reporting and respond to ad-hoc requests from Trading for compliance purposes.
- Continually drive integration, enhancement, and improvement of existing processes and tools, including working closely with IT to deliver automation.
- Assist in documentation of processes, model logic, assumptions, and verification to meet Audit requirements as necessary, and ensuring ongoing compliance is demonstrable.
- Other ad-hoc analysis is a regular requirement of this role.

Crucial to the success of this role is the ability to work collaboratively and lead effectively across multi-functional teams and interface with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, based in various locations, and being able to work autonomously.

At times, support for the broader forecasting team (including electricity forecasting) is required to ensure delivery of customer requirements in the markets we currently trade in.

**What we need from you**

We are keen to speak to professionals with the following:

- A tertiary qualification (Bachelor or higher degree) Mathematics, Statistics, Accounting, Business, Finance or equivalent
- Experience in Python, VBA, SQL, programming languages and PowerBI (highly regarded)
- Industry experience or knowledge of AEMO’s Wholesale and Retail Gas Markets, and the National Electricity Market (NEM)
- Thorough knowledge of Microsoft Excel & proficiency in all other Microsoft packages
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, high level of accuracy and attention to detail
- Excellent organizational and time management skills, ability to work under pressure and meet tight timeframes
- Good communications skills both written and oral
