  • Coordinate physical logistics, including shipping, freight, storage, inventory management, and delivery processes.
  • Oversee trade documentation, including contracts, invoices, bills of lading, insurance certificates, and inspection reports.
  • Ensure timely and accurate settlements, reconciliations, and cash management activities.
  • Monitor and mitigate operational risks while maintaining strong controls and governance.
  • Partner closely with Front Office teams, providing operational expertise and support for business growth initiatives.
  • Manage relationships with key external service providers, including warehouses, inspectors, surveyors, and freight partners.
  • Drive continuous improvement of operational processes, systems, and controls.
  • Support regulatory, compliance, AML, sanctions, and audit requirements.



What we're looking for

  • Proven experience within Commodities Operations, ideally supporting physical commodity transactions.
  • Strong understanding of the operational aspects of physical commodity trading, including logistics, settlements, documentation, and inventory management.
  • Experience within a banking or financial markets environment.
  • Exposure to Metals and/or Energy products is highly desirable.
  • Understanding of trade finance processes and documentation would be advantageous.
  • Strong risk and control mindset with exceptional attention to detail.
  • Ability to build relationships and collaborate effectively across multiple stakeholders.
  • A proactive approach with a passion for improving processes and driving operational excellence.
  • Comfortable working across multiple systems and platforms in a fast-paced environment.



Why consider this opportunity?

  • Work closely with senior stakeholders and Front Office teams.
  • Gain exposure to a broad range of physical commodity products and transactions.
  • Play a key role in shaping and enhancing operational processes and controls.
  • Be part of a collaborative, high-performing environment where your expertise will have a direct impact on business success.
