Job Description:

Seize this opportunity with Hitachi Energy as a Senior Advisory Consultant within our Enterprise Software Solutions team. You’ll represent our award-winning service as a credible, trusted expert in your field. You’ll be supported by our broad team of experienced energy market advisors, software solution experts, Project Managers, as well as our technical IT support team.  You’ll be equipped with ongoing training to build on your proven expertise in the power utility/energy sector. You’ll be proactive and have a genuine thirst for knowledge - continually staying ahead of market changes, absorbing all the relevant facts, and liaising with our customers in close consultation.  You will create compelling customer proposals relative to our tailored software and energy market advisory services, and gain an in-depth understanding of customer needs and objectives. You will work in close collaboration with both internal and external parties flexibly to support and achieve the end goal and provide true value to the Hitachi Energy client base.

The Advisory Consultant will function as a regional and subject matter expert on Hitachi Energy’s Power Reference Case Reports (i.e., country-specific energy market outlook reports) and proprietary energy market modelling solutions. The role involves implementing Hitachi Energy’s industry-leading market analysis models for in-house analysis through validating model inputs, assumptions and results, updating Power Reference Case reports and bespoke advisory work for clients. It requires strong analytic skills, particularly in quantitative analysis and problem-solving, and implementation of optimization software for electricity market analysis. In addition to these technical responsibilities, the consultant will also play a key role in supporting product marketing and sales activities. This dual focus on technical expertise and business development will not only contribute to the growth of our customer base in the EMEA region and further afield, but to personal development as well.
