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.
The Role: You’ll be responsible for trading across the Singapore middle distillates complex, combining market making with proprietary risk.
Key Experience:
- 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 counterparties are highly advantageous
- Experience working across both London and Singapore trading hours is beneficial
Culture: 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
Ideal backgrounds:
- Asian oil traders now based in London
- London-based traders covering Singapore products
- Traders from commodity houses with strong Asian middle distillates exposure
