**Job Description**:
This role will serve as part of Wood Mackenzie’s Scenarios & Technologies research team, in the Multi-Commodity Research (MCR) division. This is an excellent opportunity to join a strong, global team and make a major contribution to the energy transition at a global scale.

The MCR division is the nexus of Wood Mackenzie’s Energy Transition research, drawing upon multiple commodity areas. The group’s work helps our clients understand market trends across the critical technologies enabling the energy transition. Coverage spans emissions, carbon markets, abatement technologies, scenario modelling, materials of the energy transition, the circular economy and institutional investor support.

MCR and the Scenarios & Technologies team are both growing quickly as we help to drive the pace and scale of the energy transition and to serve different customer segments with integrated analysis.

In the Scenarios & Technologies team, we model full energy and non-energy balances for markets across all fuels, technologies, and sectors. We interpret policies, assess new technologies and build deployment forecasts marrying up the growth versus traditional fuels in all sectors (power, transport, industrial, residential commercial and agriculture). We provide alternate forecasts such as our proprietary 2 and 1.5-degree pathways where the country-level modelling reflects country pathways on the journey towards net-zero emissions.

Key internal collaborations within Wood Mackenzie are with our expert groups on upstream, gas/LNG, oil/refining, petrochemicals, steel, metals, power, renewables, hydrogen and CCUS teams.

**Role Purpose**

Working together with our other global Scenarios & Technologies team members, this role will be responsible for building and maintaining emerging market coverage in Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America.
