SOC 3531 is an eligible occupation, but we classified this role with low confidence (37% match). If the code is right — and Crédit Agricole CIB is a licensed sponsor — it should qualify, but double-check the occupation eligibility rules against the actual role.
About the role
We are looking for an experienced and commercially driven Energy Sector Lead to join our Global Trade & Commodities team. This is a senior origination role with end-to-end ownership of Trade Finance, Receivables and Supply Chain Finance, Inventory Finance and Structured Commodity Finance transactions across our Energy portfolio. If you are a relationship-driven professional with deep expertise in commodity and trade finance, and a passion for structuring complex deals, this is an exceptional opportunity to make a significant impact within a leading global bank.

- Lead the full sales cycle — from origination and structuring through to documentation and execution — for new transactions across the Energy portfolio
- Drive inbound and outbound business development with Corporates, working closely with the CA-CIB global network
- Actively promote and grow utilisation of established facilities through regular client engagement
- Cross-sell across ITB and broader Crédit Agricole Group product lines

- Advise Coverage teams on proposed participation levels and transaction structuring
- Assess transactions across structure, reputation, technical and operational dimensions
- Ensure timely communication to the Credit Department of any changes in deal quality
Relationship Management
