Our Geneva office is the trading arm of a wider industrial and financial group employing over 1,300 people, with more than fifteen years of operational experience in the sector. Our ambition is to grow from a regional leader into a pan-European champion in biofuels, and to build a profitable business at the forefront of the energy transition.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Execute methanol trading and sourcing strategies across the ARA hub and in Eastern Europe, including sourcing of third-party methanol on term contract and spot basis. Build, develop and manage a methanol trading book from an early stage, growing third-party traded volumes, while operating within approved risk limits. Analyse global methanol fundamentals: supply and demand balances, storage, shipping, weather, geopolitical developments and pricing dynamics. Identify arbitrage opportunities across the ARA hub and in Eastern Europe. Optimise physical cargo movements, including storage tank planning, vessel planning and freight optimisation, in close collaboration with the Shipping and Operations teams. Build and maintain
