Job Details
Our client, a commodity trading/mining firm that is very active in the global metals and minerals markets, is looking to hire a full-time Business Analyst within Information Systems. This will be fully onsite out of their Greenwich, CT location.
You will report to the Information Systems Manager and have a direct dotted line into the COO! It's a very dynamic role with the ability to wear many hats. You will have tons of capability, autonomy, visibility, all within a very entrepreneurial environment.
You will be supporting both local and global initiatives. This role will be 99% internal (less external-facing interaction). You will help bridge the gap between the business processes & technical side.
Responsibilities will also encompass administration such as data entry, data setup, training, testing, documenting.
Ideal Considerations:
- BA of business processes with some technical application/approach + business ops experience
- BA in software development
- Relevant commodity trading industry experience, working across a variety of commodities and/or using multiple systems
Accounting or financial markets experience is a plus, and of course any commodities experience is a home run.
Either way, you should be interested in Systems/Commodities (although they are agnostic to the industries you've worked in).
