We work with clients across many different commodity types and across the value chain. From metals traders and miners, through oil majors, freight and shipping specialists to asset backed energy traders.

We collaborate with our clients on some of their most strategic programmes as they seek to adapt to the changing environment, monetise new value pools and remain competitive. We help them to translate strategy into action, to enter new markets, build new capabilities, and to revolutionise their trading businesses and IT landscapes. We’re looking for people to join our growing team who have a passion for commodity and energy trading and for collaborating with clients face to face to help solve their key challenges.
