Full Job Posting

Who We Are

  • FGE NexantECA is a global energy and chemicals intelligence business helping energy companies, traders, investors, and governments make better decisions.
  • We combine deep market expertise with rigorous data driven analysis across oil, gas, LNG, chemicals, and the energy transition.
  • We are launching Lumen, a next generation intelligence platform.

The Role

  • Analyst role focused on Middle Eastern downstream markets.
  • Develop expertise in refined product markets including refinery operations, supply/demand, trade flows, pricing, and regional market structure.
  • Work closely with specialists across upstream, refining, crude and products trading, and macroeconomics.

What You'll Do Market Analysis & Modelling

  • Collect, clean, and analyse refined product data across the Middle East — supply, demand, trade, and pricing.
  • Build and maintain downstream supply and demand models by product and country.
  • Analyse refinery operations and configurations, including throughput, yields, outages, and new capacity additions.
  • Assess product trade flows, export destinations, import requirements, and arbitrage dynamics.
  • Analyse pricing structures, including regional benchmarks, netbacks, and linkages to crude and global product markets.
  • Develop short and long term downstream market forecasts.

Market Intelligence & Research

  • Monitor policy, subsidy, specification, and regulatory developments affecting Middle Eastern product markets.
  • Translate data and market developments into clear, forward looking insight.
  • Prepare client facing presentations, charts, and written analysis.
  • Contribute to client deliverables including briefings, reports, and workshops.
  • Support senior analysts and consultants on cross barrel and cross regional projects.

Data & Tools

  • Work with large, often imperfect datasets and bring structure and clarity to ambiguous situations.
  • Contribute to how analysis is integrated into Lumen as the platform evolves.
  • Use AI and data tools where relevant to accelerate research and improve how insight is communicated.

What We're Looking For

  • Open to candidates with up to 3 years of relevant experience, as well as strong graduates.
  • Background in energy, engineering, economics, chemistry, mathematics, finance, or related field.
  • Prior downstream or oil market experience not required; training provided.
  • Genuinely curious about refined product markets, trade economics, and regional market structure.
  • Highly numerate and comfortable working with large, complex datasets.
  • Can build and interpret product balance and refinery models.
  • Think critically about market balances, pricing, refinery behaviour, and trade dynamics.
  • Communicate clearly in writing, charts, and conversation.
  • Comfortable managing multiple tasks in a deadline driven environment.
  • Eager to learn, develop, and take on increasing ownership.
  • Exploring how AI and modern data tools can support analytical work.
  • Advanced Excel with strong modelling aptitude essential; Python or SQL is a meaningful plus.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary based on experience and ability.
  • Private health insurance.
  • Annual performance related bonus.
  • Supportive, collaborative team with real investment in your development.
  • Strong long term career progression opportunities.
  • Right to work in the UAE required, or eligibility for a visa.

Why Dubai — and Why Now

  • Dubai is a centre for energy markets, at the intersection of global crude flows, major refining capacity, and significant producers and traders.
  • Dubai offers exceptional quality of life, international environment, and thriving energy sector community.
  • Joining now means being part of a business in transformation, contributing to building something new.
