- Skills:
- Strong experience with PXF/prepay, borrowing base, RBL, inventory monetisation, offtake-backed, and tolling structures.
- Proven experience with physical crude and refined products and an understanding of the underlying trade flows.
- Strong financial modelling, cash-flow analysis, collateral valuation, and stress-testing skills.
- Excellent credit and risk judgement across producers, refiners, NOCs, traders, and logistics providers.
- Good understanding of KYC/AML, sanctions, security, and trade documentation.
- Comfortable with physical trade mechanics including storage, shipping, logistics, and Incoterms.
- Strong relationship-management skills and the ability to work across multiple internal and external stakeholders.
- Comfortable managing several complex transactions simultaneously and working to tight deadlines.
