What Role You Will Play In Our Team

If successful, you will be an integral part of our Global Trading organization, supporting commercial and trading activities across European biofuels and global renewable fuels markets. We are seeking a highly motivated analyst with strong market fundamentals, analytical capabilities, and regulatory expertise to develop market insights, supply and demand assessments, and forward-looking market views that support trading, risk management, and commercial decision-making.

In this role, you will work closely with traders, commercial teams, policy specialists, and other market analysts to evaluate market fundamentals, regulatory developments, feedstock dynamics, and emerging trends across the biofuels value chain. You will contribute to the development of actionable market intelligence that enables trading strategies, identifies commercial opportunities, and supports growth across ExxonMobil's renewable fuels business.

What You Will Do

  • Monitor and analyze European biofuels, feedstocks, renewable fuels, and low-carbon energy markets to identify market trends, commercial opportunities, and key risks.
  • Develop and maintain supply, demand, trade flow, and pricing forecasts to support trading strategies, portfolio management, and risk assessment activities.
  • Analyze market fundamentals, production economics, feedstock availability, and value chain dynamics across biodiesel, renewable diesel, SAF, ethanol, and other renewable fuel markets.
  • Assess the impact of European and national regulatory frameworks, including RED III, FuelEU Maritime, ReFuelEU Aviation, ETS II, and other emerging decarbonization policies.
  • Monitor legislative, policy, and regulatory developments affecting renewable fuels, compliance markets, sustainability requirements, and certification schemes.
  • Evaluate the commercial implications of evolving regulations and provide timely insights on market impacts, opportunities, and risks.
  • Partner closely with traders to develop market views, identify trading opportunities, and support strategy development through fundamental market analysis.
  • Deliver short-, medium-, and long-term market outlooks supporting trading, commercial positioning, and portfolio decision-making.
  • Produce regular market reports, presentations, and commentary that communicate complex market developments in a clear and actionable manner.
  • Track competitor activity, industry developments, infrastructure expansions, and emerging market trends impacting biofuels and renewable fuels markets.
  • Collaborate with trading, analytics, policy, and commercial teams to ensure alignment between market intelligence and business objectives.
  • Build and maintain relationships with internal stakeholders and external market participants to enhance market understanding and intelligence gathering.
  • Support ad hoc commercial analysis, strategic assessments, and special projects as required by the trading organization.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
