  • European certificate schemes;
  • Emerging renewable molecule markets;
  • Structured and cross-commodity opportunities.

This is a role with real responsibility, autonomy and growth potential.

What you’ll do

  • Develop and execute proprietary trading strategies in European environmental markets;
  • Identify structural inefficiencies and translate them into actionable positions;
  • Build analytical frameworks and pricing models;
  • Manage positions dynamically in response to regulatory and market developments;
  • Collaborate with Business Development on origination and new market flows.

Is this about you?

  • 5+ years trading experience in commodities and/or environmental certificates;
  • Demonstrated track record in strategy development and performance delivery;
  • Strong commercial instinct and entrepreneurial mindset;
  • Quantitative understanding and risk awareness;
  • Ability to operate independently in fast-moving markets;
  • Based in the Netherlands or willing to relocate.

You’ll be responsible for

  • End-to-end strategy ownership and P&L performance;
  • Risk management within defined trading limits;
  • Capital allocation decisions within your mandate;
  • Scaling profitable strategies and growing the certificates franchise;
  • Maintaining disciplined execution and compliance standards.

This is where you’ll work
