• Identify new supply opportunities, logistics pathways, and risk mitigation strategies to protect supply continuity and enhance feedstock value.
• Collaborate closely with trading, operations, legal, finance, and logistics counterparts to manage contractual commitments, operational constraints, and execution alignment.

REQUIRED EDUCATION/EXPERIENCES:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Business, Engineering, Economics, Energy, or a related discipline.
