Trading challenge 2024
Trading challenge is a unique opportunity to learn the basic principles of trading first hand from real trading and analytics experts, and to feel the adrenalin that every trader feels on a daily basis.
Trading at GEN-I
Trading is one of most important pillars of GEN-I’s business. We trade on international markets in 24 countries, and currently control 23 subsidiaries – which makes us one of the leading energy companies in the region. We traded over 88 TWh of power in 2023 – approximately six times the entire consumption of electricity in Slovenia.
Trading is closely linked to advanced analytics and to the innovative analytical tools that we are constantly developing and upgrading. We are constantly adding to our team of traders and analysts, providing them expert training and mentoring.
We would like to showcase our engagement with the challenges of international markets and the advancement of our analytics in this presentation film.
How does Trading challenge work?
This six-week challenge features lectures and a chance to try your hand at trading under the watchful eye of our experienced traders, and to work with data, analyses and forecasting models with the support of our analysts. The challenge is divided into trading and analytics, meaning that you can choose the field that interests you the most.
At the end of the programme we will offer the best participants the chance of employment in trading or analytics, or a scholarship.
The challenge will take place entirely online, so you can join it from wherever you are. It will start on 21 October 2024, with lectures held twice a week in the afternoons. The challenge will finish on 2 December 2024, when we will organise a small group meeting.
Who can apply?
The challenge is open to anyone who enjoys and is interested in trading and analytics. If you like observing market shifts and following global news, our Trading challenge is made for you. Join the competition and show us your skills. The Trading challenge will take place in English.
What will you learn?
Through daily lectures you’ll get to know the basic principles of trading, and learn how to establish strategies and scrutinise events on the market – what’s more, you’ll get the opportunity to trade in energy in an entirely financial risk-free environment.
You’ll have access to the latest trading tools throughout the challenge – the very same tools that our employees use themselves.
Applications
The application process is open until 15 October 2024. Places are available for 120 of the most suitable candidates. If you are selected, you will receive further information on the challenge by email.
