I lead a team in delivering RtMI’s digital initiatives involving CTRM and trading related applications as well as projects relating to analytics and business intelligence. I work closely with stakeholders involved in the trade lifecycle – Trading, Market Risk, Credit, Operations, Accounting. More than just a buzzword, digital transformation is being embraced increasingly by trading houses as means of gaining a competitive advantage. I would like to think that my team is making a difference to RtMI by bringing continuous improvements with technology and we do so by acting as the bridge between the business and the technical solutions. Having an appreciation of technology, the commodities trading business, good communication, people skills as well as plenty of stamina is essential! There is a saying “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” At RtMI, it is always about going far together.
I worked on the full spectrum of dry bulk shipping operations focusing mainly on ferrous raw materials such as iron ore, coal, and bauxite. I have always look forward to work in a dynamic organization where I can contribute to its growth and explore new opportunities and work experiences. RtMI has given me the opportunity to be involved in the setting up of a new bulk shipping freight function where I have always been keen to learn and explore. As a young organization, the growth opportunities in RtMI are limitless as long as you possess the burning desire and enthusiasm to learn and achieve that career high. Possessing a positive mindset and attitude and be always ready to engage and acquire new knowledge is certainly one of the attributes to join this vibrant and cohesive organisation!
My main role is to execute timely quantitative and qualitative risk assessment for all counterparties and financial institutions and sanctioning appropriate credit limits to each party. I also support the team by monitoring and reporting on credit exposure and utilisation. We work closely with almost all functions in the company such as the Trading Desks and Trade Operation department. The business is fast paced and dynamic, so it is essential to be able to work independently. Likewise, having good interpersonal skills to establish connections and manage different stakeholders both internally and externally, being meticulous and detail-oriented is necessary for this role. Open communication within the organisation has enabled me to collaborate better, and the trust and autonomy gives me flexibility to initiate work efficiency changes and take lead in projects.
As a base metal trader, my job centers on the trading of industrial metals like copper and zinc. These metals are essential for a wide range of industries, from construction to electronics and renewable energy, making them critical components of the global economy. The trading environment is fast-paced and constantly evolving. Macroeconomic and geopolitical events can influence demand-supply and pricing dynamics so it is important to stay informed to manage risks and capture new business opportunities. My responsibilities also extend to support in counterparty onboarding, contract management and budgeting. It's a rewarding yet challenging field, so efficient multi-tasking, being disciplined and continuous learning are essential to success.
My role involves supporting the traders in their day-to-day operations and decision-making process. These responsibilities include gathering and analysing market data and information, compiling them into clear and concise presentations and reports for better visualisation, and identifying any significant changes and trends. I am given the opportunity to take initiative and make suggestions for improvements which has developed my decision-making skills. The mentorship and guidance provided have been invaluable in my growth and development as a professional. The commodity trading industry is challenging yet highly rewarding and the internship has been an incredible learning experience. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a talented, dedicated, and dynamic team.
