Dimensions

The Shell Trading Network is fast moving and growing rapidly. The Trading & Supply business is becoming increasingly complex with a changing macro-environment and with a shift in global supply-demand Shell Trading & Supply is seeking to do business in riskier Emerging Market countries and with entities that have questionable Credit Quality. This coupled with a generally Credit adverse macro environment makes it increasingly important that we review counterparties with a critical eye and provide robust and thorough Credit Assessments to justify decisions made.

Transactions being entered into are also of increasing number, complexity and tenor. The recent past has seen a strong rise in the number of derivative transactions. Furthermore, asset based trading strategies are also growing strongly, employing more working capital and introducing increased levels of risk and resource consumption.

All of which lead to the need for strong controls and an Operations team that is resilient, nimble and detail oriented

Special Challenges

  • This role creates the opportunity to further define the Global Trading Credit Organisation particularly in the new Trading & Supply world while we look to continually innovate and define best credit solutions to support the dynamic and fast-paced Trading and Supply business
  • Maintain good, long-term relationships with counter-parties and other external financial institutions to ensure Shell Trading maintains the right external image and engagements with these bodies' results in positive outcomes.
  • Willingness to learn or currently have ability to navigate through various end use trading systems
  • Demonstrate a firm grasp of the key commercial considerations, as well as an ability to weigh up and decide on the risks of each activity. The ability to know when to escalate is essential.
  • Keep connected with the other teams within Credit, KYC and Trade Finance in all three core locations, to ensure the team understands emerging challenges the location-based teams are facing and can re-prioritize effort as required.
  • Give enthusiastic and vocal support to the Global Trading Credit organisational changes, the benefits of which will in many cases be felt in the longer term, while continuing to meet the ongoing needs to the global Trading and Supply businesses in the immediate term.
  • Maintain the ability, notwithstanding the transition to a global organisation, to respond immediately and decisively in the event of the known unknowns in the external environment. There will inevitably be peaks and troughs in the workload over the course of the year.
  • Work effectively with other parts of finance, especially the Trading and Supply receivables team to demonstrate end to end knowledge.

Experiences & Qualifications

  • Ideally, would have relevant finance experience with specific focus in Credit or prior work experience in the corporate sector, especially within a Trading or Credit team.
  • Strong financial acumen - comfortable working with and assessing counterparties Financials i.e. Income statement, Balance Sheet and cash Flow Statement
  • Strong commercial understanding, especially the ability to balance speed, cost benefit and long-term relationship management
