Oliver Schön is a risk manager with five years’ experience translating advanced quantitative skills from a PhD in theoretical astrophysics into pragmatic energy-market risk strategies for municipal utilities. Based in Tübingen, he models volatile, geopolitically driven markets to support executive decision-making and embed risk-aware processes across organizations. Previously he taught applied mathematics and AI to diverse audiences, led international science-communication workshops, and developed forecasting and scenario models bridging research rigor with operational needs. Colleagues know him for finding opportunities within risks—designing resilient procurement strategies rather than just hedges—and for communicating complex models clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
