Commercial Analyst Stream

  • Joined: 2021
  • Stream: Commercial Analyst
  • Studied: Chemical Engineering at University of Manchester
  • Current Placement: Demand Side Response and Smart Energy Analyst

Why I chose Centrica: Centrica plays a significant role in our day-to-day life and it will have a significant role in our future, specifically in achieving our national net zero targets and averting the climate crisis. This is something that I am very passionate about.

What I enjoy most about my stream: The Commercial Analyst stream is very broad. Not just in terms of the areas of the business that you get exposure to but in terms of the job description. Depending on your preferences you can gain a wide variety of skills both technical and non-technical and I believe that it provides a great platform for future careers in different areas and specialties.

Some of the highlights of the graduate scheme so far: There have been lots: leading my first project which involved sizing and pricing a 14 MW commercial solar project, winning a project that I led on and which provided direct value in revenue to the business, being involved with development of a new business function within British Gas, successfully bidding for and developing large scale hospital renewable infrastructure projects, writing and developing a brief to HM treasury to lobby for increased support for renewable energy development, as well as the various graduate events during the year - specifically the Sandhurst team building event where we all got together at Sandhurst Military Academy for some really interesting development days. 

My one piece of advice to applicants: The best advice I can give is quite simple really - be curious and never be afraid to ask questions. It’s worked for me so far!
