Shape the Future of Global Energy Transactions

Scotiabank's Energy Investment Banking team is expanding its presence across EMEA, and we are looking for an experienced Reservoir Engineering professional to play a pivotal role in building our growing franchise.

This is a unique opportunity to combine deep technical expertise with high-profile transaction execution, working alongside investment bankers, corporate finance professionals, private capital providers, national oil companies, and international energy companies on some of the sector's most complex and strategic transactions.

You will be at the centre of acquisitions, divestitures, financings and strategic advisory mandates, providing critical technical insight that drives investment decisions and creates value for our clients across the global energy landscape.

Why Join Us?

• Join a growing Energy Investment Banking platform with significant ambition and momentum.
• Work on high-impact international transactions across upstream oil & gas markets.
• Partner directly with senior decision-makers, investors, corporates and national oil companies.
• Influence both transaction outcomes and broader client strategy.
• Be part of an entrepreneurial team where your expertise will have a visible impact.
• Collaborate across technical and financial disciplines in a truly integrated advisory environment.

The Role

As Associate Director, Reservoir Engineering, you will lead the technical evaluation of upstream oil and gas assets, supporting transaction execution and business development across a broad range of international mandates.

You will serve as a trusted technical advisor to clients while working closely with investment banking colleagues to deliver best-in-class advisory services across acquisitions, divestitures, valuations, strategic reviews and capital raising assignments.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead technical evaluations of upstream oil & gas assets, including reserves estimation, production forecasting, facilities, risk assessment and development planning.
• Lead reservoir engineering workstreams across buy-side and sell-side transactions, providing technical insight to support valuation and execution.
• Review and validate technical marketing materials, management presentations and data room content.
• Present technical analyses and recommendations to clients, investors and prospective buyers.
• Support business development initiatives, client pitches and origination activities across the Energy sector.
• Screen and evaluate acquisition and divestiture opportunities, identifying key risks and value drivers.
• Partner with Investment Banking and Corporate Finance teams to deliver high-quality technical and strategic advice to clients.

What Success Looks Like

You are a technically respected reservoir engineer who enjoys applying your expertise in a strategic, commercial environment. You are equally comfortable evaluating a reservoir model, presenting insights to a client boardroom, or partnering with investment bankers to help execute a transformational transaction.

Most importantly, you are excited by the opportunity to help build a growing energy franchise and make a tangible impact on the future of the business.
