Our two year graduate development programme is designed to provide you with a structured series of rotations across our core trading business, in areas such as Deals Desk, Operations, Trade Finance and Analysis. You will have the opportunity to complete three 8 month rotations, all based in Singapore, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the business and opening up a future of unlimited opportunities within the Trafigura group.
The programme encourages an entrepreneurial attitude, ensures high visibility across different departments and countries, and allows you to build opportunities for yourself through exponential performance and networking. As with all our people, opportunities for outstanding talent are unlimited, and we ensure you are equipped with the knowledge, business development skills and cultural awareness required for a long term, successful career with us.
It is worth noting that this is not a trading programme: Those looking to enter a commercial (‘front line trading/ business development’’) role should expect to spend several years within a department after completing the programme, ‘mastering’ the product specific techniques and skills that will ensure their long term career, be it management or commercial, is enhanced to guarantee their full career potential.
A minimum requirement of a 2:1 / 3.4 GPA (or equivalent) in any discipline and fluent English is essential.
