You'll analyze current Commodities configurations and trading processes to recommend optimizations and support the design of solutions that improve trader productivity and risk management. You'll conduct impact assessments for system changes, validate that implementations meet business needs, and support testing and user acceptance activities. You'll also document processes, create training materials for end-users and support teams, and maintain clear communication with management on project status and risks.
