Business Developer & Trade Analyst Rotterdam • &deBlauw

You take the lead in analysis of Oxbow's existing products and markets, as well as future developments. One of the focal commodities is the petcoke market which is served out of the Terneuzen terminal. Your analytical skills are triggered by position management, supply, and demand. Your operational skills add value to supply chain optimisation and product quality.

You understand commodity flows and supply chain characteristics and feel very comfortable in a business development role. Developing value propositions, expanding your network, and connecting people gives you energy. You are a loyal and result oriented candidate that shows flexibility, and you are an easy-going team player.

In this role you are responsible to investigate markets that could potentially become a new business for Oxbow. Subsequently, you will develop new products and services that are related to and match with Oxbow’s existing business and network in industry and the energy sector. These products and services do not have to be dry bulk related. Apart from energy transition, the raw material transition offers many opportunities, such as steel recycling.

You will join a company with a no-nonsense culture. Although the Rotterdam entity is part of an international multibillion-dollar company, you will experience a pleasant atmosphere like that in a family-owned company. You are surrounded by international colleagues and given the liberty to orchestrate your own role and career within the company. The company organises a monthly complementary team lunch.
