We are seeking an exceptional President — a globally experienced executive with strategic vision, operational leadership, and systems thinking — to join the founding team.
This is a rare opportunity to become a strategic partner in building a lean, modern, and high-impact energy trading enterprise.

• Shape the vision, structure, and direction of the company — from day one through international growth.
• Build and operate a next-generation trading platform grounded in differentiated geo-commercial positioning and digital infrastructure.
• Collaborate with an experienced founding team committed to excellence, partnership, and speed.
• Step into a true leadership role — not just as a senior executive, but as a long-term strategic partner in value creation.

• Oversee international operations including trade execution, risk management, compliance, and governance.
• Develop and manage key relationships with commercial partners, regulators, financial stakeholders, and infrastructure providers.

• 15+ years in senior executive roles in global energy, trading, or complex commercial environments.
