About Marex

Marex Group plc is a diversified global financial services platform, providing essential liquidity, market access, and infrastructure services to clients in the energy, commodities, and financial markets. It was listed on Nasdaq Global Select Market in April 2024. With more than 35 offices in Europe, the US, and APAC, it has unique access across markets with significant share globally both on and off exchange. The depth of knowledge amongst its teams and divisions provides its customers with a clear advantage, and its technology-led service provides access to all major exchanges, order-flow management via screen, voice, and DMA, plus award-winning data, insights, and analytics.

CSC specializes in global commodity derivatives with a breadth of expertise in crude oil, refined products, and freight, trading across all exchanges.

Established in 2013, CSC Commodities has established a reputation and reach in the energy markets, making markets for all hedgers from producers and refiners to end users including shipping companies, airlines, and petchem giants. Specializing in tailor-made derivatives, CSC Commodities allows the client to pick exactly the product specifications they require, with direct access to a dedicated trading team all the way through the barrel.

CSC Commodities was acquired by Marex in January 2019 to expand energy sector market-making capabilities.

This role covers the Energy Derivatives products for CSC Commodities.

Role Summary

To produce written and verbal commentaries on the energy markets for the firm’s sales-trading teams and their trading counterparties, and to produce intelligence on market fundamentals and trends.
