Agribusiness and commodities have been at the centre of our Singapore practice for years, and more of these roles are based in Singapore itself than in any other sector we cover. We search for plantation and palm oil groups, grain and oilseed businesses, fertiliser producers and traders, edible oil and food ingredient companies, and trading houses dealing in soft and hard commodities.
The roles run from the top of the business to the trading desk: chief executives, deputy managing directors and country general managers; senior traders and desk heads; risk, trade execution and operations leaders; heads of sustainability; mill and plant managers; and chief financial officers and finance heads.
Our clients trade and operate from Singapore, Dubai, Indonesia, China, Vietnam, Africa and Latin America, so many of our searches cross borders. We know which people have run an origin, a desk or an estate in difficult markets, and we approach them in confidence.
