Senior Singapore Middle Distillates Trader

I'm working with an established oil trading business looking to hire a Senior Singapore Middle Distillates Trader to join their London desk.

This is an opportunity for an experienced trader with strong exposure to the Singapore middle distillates market to step into a well-capitalised trading environment where you'll have the freedom to develop and execute your own ideas.

You’ll join a well-established oil trading firm active across the barrel, with multiple partner desks providing market intelligence and cross-product collaboration. The business combines market making with proprietary trading, giving traders the infrastructure, capital and autonomy to build and execute their own strategies.

You’ll be responsible for trading across the Singapore middle distillates complex, combining market making with proprietary risk.

• Strong track record trading Singapore middle distillates markets
• Product coverage across gasoil, diesel, jet fuel and kerosene
• Market making experience is essential
• Experience across Singapore swaps, derivatives and physical-linked markets
• Strong understanding of Asian supply and demand, refinery economics and regional trade flows
• Demonstrable PnL generation and proprietary idea development
• Existing relationships across Asian counter parties are highly advantageous
• Experience working across both London and Singapore trading hours is beneficial

This is a team of fewer than 20 people, so cultural fit matters just as much as trading ability.

They’re looking for someone who is:

• Commercially minded and ambitious
• Collaborative and easy to work with
• Happy to challenge ideas while remaining a team player
• High performing without the ego

• Asian oil traders now based in London
• London-based traders covering Singapore products
• Traders from commodity houses with strong Asian middle distillates exposure
