Additionally, you will keep abreast of commodity market and technology trends, identify and leverage new opportunities aligned with strategic goals, and build strong relationships with senior stakeholders across the business, risk, and operations teams.

What you offer

• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, comfortable interacting with and influencing senior internal and external stakeholders.
