Regular Credit Operations, specifically system updates and Credit Advice.

Monitor and assess counterparties on an ad hoc basis as requested by the relevant global underwriting team.

Dimensions

The Shell Trading Network is fast moving and growing rapidly. The Trading & Supply business is becoming increasingly complex with a changing macro-environment and with a shift in global supply-demand Shell Trading & Supply is seeking to do business in riskier Emerging Market countries and with entities that have questionable Credit Quality. This coupled with a generally Credit adverse macro environment makes it increasingly important that we review counterparties with a critical eye and provide robust and thorough Credit Assessments to justify decisions made.

Transactions being entered into are also of increasing number, complexity and tenor. The recent past has seen a strong rise in the number of derivative transactions. Furthermore, asset based trading strategies are also growing strongly, employing more working capital and introducing increased levels of risk and resource consumption.

All of which lead to the need for strong controls and an Operations team that is resilient, nimble and detail oriented

The role will support the following regions and primarily these respective Shell Trading Network companies:


North America: STUSCO and SENA/C
Europe: STASCO and SEEL
Asia: SIETCO
