To make sure you build up a broad awareness of the business, at least one of your rotations will be in a non-trading function. Other than that, you get to choose which areas of the business you work in. These could include:

• Proprietary trading of energy commodities (power, coal, gas, oil, LNG, metals, carbon)
• Freight Trading & Operations (Shipping)
• Commercial Asset Optimisation
• Sales & Origination
• Commercial Analysis
• Analytical functions such as Structuring & Valuation, Risk Management or Data Science
• ...and much more

We are especially interested to hear from candidates who would choose to do a rotation in Data Science,
and who are interested in applying their coding and Python skills to fields including quantitative analysis and
machine learning.
