We’re always looking for people who can bring new talents and experience to our team.

Who You Are

  • Undergraduate degree in Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Mathematics, or a related field is required
  • Master’s degree in business, Applied Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related quantitative discipline considered an asset
  • Professional designations such as CRM, CFA, or FRM are considered an asset
  • Comprehensive knowledge of financial instruments, capital markets, derivatives, and commodity risk management — including hedge strategy development, accounting considerations, and valuation
  • Advanced quantitative and analytical skills with the ability to build and maintain risk models (VaR, Greeks, scenario analysis, stress testing)
  • Exceptional communication skills with the ability to translate complex risk data into clear, actionable narratives for executive and non‑technical audiences
  • Collaborative, team‑oriented working style with the ability to influence strategy across functions without direct authority
  • Strong ownership mindset — comfortable taking accountability for the direction and quality of the company’s risk and hedging management efforts
  • Decisive under uncertainty, with the ability to make timely recommendations while anticipating internal and external implications
  • Intellectually adaptable — adjusts approaches based on new market information, contrary evidence, or changing business conditions
  • Technologically fluent with a proven early‑adopter mindset — comfortable leveraging AI‑assisted analytics, automation tools, and emerging platforms to improve risk visibility, reporting efficiency, and decision‑making; this is essential

Your Experience Should Include

  • 5+ years of relevant experience in commodity market risk management, commodity trading, risk modeling, and analytics
  • Demonstrated hands‑on expertise in agricultural and energy commodities — specifically corn, ethanol, and natural gas — including deep familiarity with the physical and derivative markets that govern their pricing
  • Proven track record executing derivative transactions (futures, options, OTC) and managing hedge programs in a commodities environment
  • Experience managing implementation projects for risk and/or financial processes is an asset; hands‑on involvement in the configuration of commodity risk and trading functionality within DycoTrade (Microsoft D365) will be a key near‑term priority for this role
