Operations - Commodities

Most commodities ops seats give you one slice of the trade. This one gives you all of it.

Riva Recruiting is partnering with a global investment firm that is scaling its commodities business and adding to its Houston operations team. This team sits at the center of the trade: futures, options, OTC and physical, from capture to settlement.

What you'll own

• The full post-trade lifecycle: validation, affirmation, settlement and reconciliation across listed, OTC and physical
• Daily position and cash recs, plus same-day exception management
• Option exercises, assignments and expiries
• Onboarding new counterparties and exchanges as the business grows
• Process and system improvements. You'll be expected to make things better, not just keep them running.

What you bring

• 3-8 years in commodities middle office, trade support or operations
• Hands-on experience with exchange-traded and OTC commodities. Exposure to physical, warehouse or environmental products is a big plus.
• Comfort with the math behind the products you support
• A clear communicator who wants a team, not a silo

Why this seat

• A growing business, so there's real room to take on more
• Broad product exposure that's hard to find elsewhere
• Lean team, multiple hats, stretch projects from day one
• A culture people stay in. Tenure is long for a reason.
