Business Change Manager – Global Physical Oil Trading Business

Oil Trading Business Change Manager - £60-90k basic + 30-40% Bonus

One of the world's leading commodity trading houses seeks a Business Change Manager to join their Central London Oil Trading Risk business.

THE ROLE:
Based from Central London, but with a global coverage, the successful Business Change Manager will report into the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) for Oil Trading but will also report into the Global Head of Business Change (both are based in London).

As an Oil Business Change Manager you will be the voice of the oil trading business in ensuring the successful design, rollout and implementation of project based activities for the Risk / Middle Office department globally. You will drive the implementation of any products aimed at continually improving the Global Oil Group, ensuring any changes to the business are delivered smoothly and with a positive impact across their London and other global offices.

Your role is thus to lead and implement business change projects which have a low IT footprint, so this is not an IT led role, hence why this role reports into the CRO. You will proactively probe for continuous improvement opportunities in systems and processes and work with the business and IT colleagues to make necessary changes. As this is a Global role, you will ensure Global representation for Risk / Middle Office in project activity to drive increased standardization and associated efficiency improvements.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE:

• This role is looking for a superstar who is wants to fasttrack their career, so you don't need 10 years experience, but you do need a minimum of 2-3 years Business Change / Change Management experience.
• It is ESSENTIAL that you have 2 years energy / commodity trading experience and ideally some oil trading related experience. This could be working in a Business Change role or as a Business Analyst etc working for either a rival commodity trading house or for a management consultancy working onsite at commodity trading houses.
• This is not an IT role although someone could have ETRM / CTRM or other energy trading IT experience as well as more business orientated experience and be keen to move into more of a pure Business Change Manager role.
• This role sits in the Risk function, reporting into the CRO, so you'll need a good understanding of Risk Management and the impact on PnL. You could have had experience working as a Risk Analyst or Product Control Analyst etc, but you do need business change experience as well.
• Strong academics including at least a strong Bachelors degree from a leading UK or Global university.
• British or other EU passport, or hold a visa allowing you to live and work in the UK without any restriction as my client will NOT sponsor or transfer visas.
• This role is looking for a superstar so you'll need to display success throughout your CV including promotions and progression. This role is looking for a very proactive, driven and resilient person.

Salary: very flexible as they are looking for a superstar but circa £60-90k basic + 30-40% bonus + benefits
