The MMU operates independently from SPP and its stakeholders to help ensure a high degree of objectivity in its evaluation of and reporting on market operations and potential issues. The MMU has a unique role where it provides both an independent and objective opinion on market design, operation, and related issues, as well as recommendations to improve market efficiency and equity across all participants. These opinions extend to existing and proposed rule changes and/or new policies that impact SPP’s market design or reliability. The surveillance team investigates potential issues that may arise in the day-to-day activities of the market and its operation. The analytics team analyses existing and proposed market design elements and represents the MMU at stakeholder meetings.


We are seeking a Market Monitor who will actively contribute to the oversight and analysis of the market, ensuring its efficiency and effectiveness while safeguarding against market power abuse, manipulation, and gaming of market rules. This role offers the opportunity to make an impact through independent evaluation, objective reporting, and strategic recommendations to improve market efficiency and equity across participants.

Presentations & Reports: Prepare and present MMU analysis and resulting opinions at stakeholder meetings.
Formal Documentation: Write formal comments on proposed rule changes, MMU recommendations, and FERC filings.
Data Monitoring: Analyze and review market data, identifying potential market power abuse, manipulation, and gaming. Provide support for ad hoc analysis and routine reports.
Special Projects: Lead and contribute to special projects of varying scope and length.
Team Collaboration: Work effectively within a multi-disciplinary team, supporting the development of metrics, analysis, reports, and responses to inquiries.
On-Call Responsibility: Participate in rotating on-call duties with other team members for real-time operations monitoring.


Additional Responsibilities:

Engage with SPP internal departments, senior management, regulatory staff, and market participants while maintaining MMU’s independence.
Support committees, working groups, and external members as part of the MMU’s market monitoring obligations.
Manage your individual work effort, supporting team efforts and contributing to new and unique analysis as you progress in your role.

If you are passionate about the energy sector, market integrity, and regulatory compliance, we invite you to apply and join our team in ensuring that the SPP market remains efficient, transparent, and fair.
