Requisition Number : 46875

At Bunge, Trade Finance Solution is far more than transaction processing. It is a critical function that supports financing of global commodity flows, business growth, and protects the organization from financial and operational risk.

As our Trade Finance Solutions (TFS) business continues to grow, we are looking for an experienced Trade Finance Solutions Operations Expert to join our team. Acting as a key control layer between commercial teams, banking partners, and operational execution, you will help ensure that complex Trade Finance transactions are appropriately structured, documented, risk-assessed, and executed in line with internal policies and international Trade Finance standards.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Commodity Trade Finance Operations professional who enjoys solving complex challenges, influencing critical business decisions, being closed to the execution of the Trade Finance instruments and working at the intersection of banking, risk management, and global trade.

As a subject matter expert within the Trade Finance Solutions team, you will provide oversight, risk control, and advisory support for complex Commodity Trade Finance transactions.

Working closely with Commercial, Treasury, Legal, Accounting, Operations, and international banking partners, you will help ensure transactions are structured correctly, risks are understood and mitigated, and controls are maintained throughout the transaction lifecycle.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Reviewing, structuring, and validating Structured Letters of Credit and Trade Finance documentation.
• Providing expert advice on transaction structures, Letter of credit wording, risk mitigation, and compliance requirements.
• Assessing and approving complex and non-standard transactions, including multi-bank and cross-border financing structures.
• Acting as a key control layer between commercial structuring and operational execution.
• Supporting and guiding global execution teams on complex transactions, exceptions, and best practices.
• Collaborating with banks, clients, and internal stakeholders throughout the transaction lifecycle.
• Monitoring transaction accuracy, financial flows, and operational controls by ensuring timely, precise and efficient execution.
• Driving operational excellence through strong governance, stakeholder management, and continuous improvement.

This is not a traditional Trade Finance Operations role.

The team serves as Bunge's center of expertise for complex and Structured Trade Finance transactions. While standardized operational activities are performed by global execution teams, your focus will be on transaction oversight, risk assessment, decision-making, advisory support, and control effectiveness.

You will have the opportunity to:

• Work on sophisticated Trade Finance structures supporting global commodity trading activities.
• Partner directly with leading international banks and financial institutions.
• Influence business decisions on high-value and strategically important transactions.
• Act as a trusted advisor and recognized Trade Finance expert across the organization.
• Contribute to the continued growth of a global Trade Finance Solutions business.

We're seeking an experienced Trade Finance professional who combines deep technical expertise with commercial awareness, sound judgment, and a strong control mindset.

• 6+ years of experience in Trade Finance within a bank, commodity trading company, or international trade environment.
• Experience in Commodity Trade Finance.
• Expertise in Letters of Credit, Stand-by LC and guarantees
• Deep knowledge in ICC rules and their application (UCP 600, ISBP, ISP
  98, URC 522, Incoterms)
• Experience reviewing and validating complex banking and Trade Finance documentation.
• Strong analytical, risk assessment, and decision-making capabilities.
• Experience working with multiple stakeholders across locations, functions,…
