Not that I am looking to exit before taking on the offer, I am only checking if I'm signing myself into a one way trip.

Electricity is very different from energy trading like oil & gas, even the remuneration is very different as the equivalent of an entry level energy trader is maybe 2-3x your offer.
Whether the offer is good or not really depends on your expectations. Electricity traders tend to move around within the utilities provider space and because it’s a niche skill, pay progression is quite standard compare to most jobs, should have no problem getting employment. However if you are thinking this is going to be a stepping stone to being a gas trader for big oil or some of the niche trading houses, then no it is very unlikely to happen.
