- Assist in managing short-term inventory positions and exchange-related activity, where relevant to supply access and deal execution
- Assess pricing, substitutability, and delivery risk across credit types and vintages

Market Insight
- Track developments across VCM, CORSIA, Article 6, and carbon tax markets
- Identify where supply sits and how it can be accessed or structured
- Provide market insight to support pricing and client engagement
Ideal candidate:
