What you’ll be doing

Digital Trading is about working with data and helping the business to make better trading decisions based on strategies which arise from the data. Whether it’s data science, quant research, algorithmic trading or data engineers those on our Digital Trading Team are responsible for systemic trading strategies – decisions that makes us competitive, even in quickly evolving market conditions.

As part of our Digital Trading Graduate Scheme, you’ll work across the Digital Trading Team to learn the ins and outs of the key disciplines within the field. This means you’ll have the ability to see what your strengths are, giving every graduate the chance to grow and develop over the course of our 2-year scheme.

The kind of person we’re looking for…

Whether your ambitions are to become a Trader or to build a career developing your data analytical skills within a trading environment, you will have direct exposure to the commercial teams and will be trusted with individual responsibility from day one.  Entrepreneurial abilities, accuracy, and strong communication skills are the key ingredients for a successful career in trading at SEFE. In addition we look for;

  • A 2:1 degree – or the equivalent ideally in a STEM subject
  • Ability to work with large data
  • Strong analytical skills
  • Ability to collaborate with others
  • Good verbal and written communication skills

In addition, we look for people cultural awareness as diversity is integral to our business.

What we will give you…

Our Digital Trading Graduate Scheme is a 2-year programme. During this time you will have exposure to Algo Trading, Data Science and Quant Research to understand how using analytics helps the business make confident and quick trading decisions based on data.

As a graduate you will get involved in analysis of data and making informed decisions which then you need to explain to traders and get them to understand and implement your trading ideas. You will be given support to develop your own ideas as well as working with others to use data to support their ideas.

What it’s like working at SEFE M&T

SM&T’s mission is to secure energy supply for Europe and help drive the transition towards renewable energy that the future needs. It’s a big ambition and one that wouldn’t be possible without the extraordinary people that we work with.

SM&T is a place where warmth and positivity are as important as learning and growing. As a grad, you’ll be supported in everything you do. Your ideas will be listened to. You’ll have the scope to find what you love, and then do more of it. More importantly, it’s somewhere that you’ll enjoy coming to work each and every day.

About Us

Securing Energy for Europe – it’s a simple statement, with a bold ambition. SEFE is not just our name, but also encompasses everything that drives us. To accomplish this, we’re taking immediate action to secure gas supply  – but also looking forward, to explore our role in the European energy transformation and how we can contribute to a stable and sustainable future.

As a fully-integrated energy company, we serve our customers with an end-to-end energy value chain – from sourcing and trading to transport, storage and sales. Together, we ensure the security of gas supply in Germany and Europe and drive the green energy transformation. Our international teams work across locations in Europe, Asia, and North America. We’re passionate about energy and the important role it can play in shaping a better future.

Join SEFE and help us secure energy supply across Europe and shape a better, more sustainable tomorrow.

Rural-Remote Machine Learning Jobs: Finding Balance Beyond the Big Cities

Over the past decade, machine learning (ML) has transformed from a niche research domain into a pervasive technology underpinning everything from recommendation systems and voice assistants to financial forecasting and autonomous vehicles. Historically, the UK’s major tech hubs—particularly London—have been magnets for top ML talent and corporate headquarters. However, remote work has become mainstream, and many ML professionals are realising they can excel in their field while living far beyond the city limits. At MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, we’ve observed a growing interest in positions that allow for a rural lifestyle or a coastal environment, often reflected in search terms like “ML remote countryside” or “tech jobs by the sea.” This surge is no coincidence. Flexible work policies, better rural broadband, and the nature of machine learning tasks—much of which can be done through cloud platforms—are bringing new opportunities to those who wish to swap urban hustle for fresh air and scenic views. Whether you’re a data scientist, ML engineer, researcher, or product manager, a rural or seaside move could reinvigorate your work-life balance. In this article, we’ll unpack why rural-remote ML jobs are on the rise, how you can navigate the challenges of leaving the city, and what you need to do to thrive in a machine learning career beyond the M25. If you’ve dreamt of looking up from your laptop to rolling fields or ocean waves, keep reading—your rural ML role might be closer than you think.

Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning—Propelling AI into the Next Frontier

Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised how we interpret data, build predictive models, and create intelligent applications. From recommendation engines and self-driving cars to advanced genomics and natural language processing, ML solutions are integral to nearly every corner of modern life. However, as data complexity and model size continue to skyrocket, the computational demands placed on ML systems grow in tandem—often pushing even high-performance classical computers to their limits. In recent years, quantum computing has emerged as a tantalising solution to these challenges. Unlike traditional digital systems, quantum computers exploit quantum mechanics—superposition and entanglement—to process information in ways that defy conventional logic. As these machines mature, they promise exponential speed-ups for certain tasks, potentially reshaping how we approach AI and data-intensive challenges. What does this mean for machine learning? Enter quantum-enhanced ML, a new frontier where quantum processors and classical ML frameworks unite to accelerate model training, tackle high-dimensional data, and solve complex optimisation tasks more efficiently. In this article, we will: Unpack the current state of machine learning, highlighting key bottlenecks. Provide a concise overview of quantum computing—why it’s radical and how it differs from classical technology. Examine potential breakthroughs in quantum-enhanced ML, including real-world use cases and technical approaches. Explore the roles and skill sets that will define this quantum-AI era, with guidance on how to prepare. Discuss the roadblocks (like hardware maturity and ethical concerns) and how they might be addressed in the years to come. If you’re a machine learning engineer, data scientist, or simply an AI enthusiast fascinated by the next wave of computational innovation, read on—quantum computing could become an integral part of your future toolkit, opening up job opportunities and reimagining what ML can achieve.
