Opportunity Overview & Quick Facts
Key Responsibilities & Operational Scope
- You'll work alongside senior originators across all aspects of commodities financing — identifying opportunities along the commodity supply chain, executing structured transactions, and building bespoke solutions for clients.
- Day-to-day, this includes monitoring market and credit exposures, reconciling P&L, funding costs and regulatory capital, and handling ad hoc requests in close collaboration with risk, trading, and logistics teams.
- On new transactions, you'll prepare client presentations and term sheets, build and review cashflow models, conduct due diligence, draft internal approval memos, and manage stakeholder engagement through to closing.
- Over time, the expectation is you will take on increasing responsibility for originating, structuring, and executing transactions.

- Skills in financial analysis and modelling, structuring, legal documentation, and execution of financing, credit or investment transactions – preferrable.
- Highly detail-oriented and an excellent standard of work with the ability to build strong working partnerships with stakeholders and clients.
- Excellent presentation and communication skills.
- Organizational skills, project management ability, and the capability to manage multiple priorities effectively.
