End of the Bear

Dear Subscriber,

In the commodity world, many see all the bearish elements now priced in the market.

For grains and oilseeds, the present campaign is half over and traders are looking at the new crop scenarios. Will Mother Nature turn nasty? Oil production has been supported by growth and dollar, the barrel is more than double the lows of earlier this year. The Fed seems to be set to raise the interest rates in December. Nevertheless, political changes (Brexit, Trump, French and German elections) and Third Party Risk continue to cause headaches for the trading companies.

As a result, all this volatility and uncertainties can be a big advantage to companies with skilled employees and these, VR-People pride themselves in finding for their clients.

Please find below the most recent candidates we have interviewed and who are potentially open to change.

  1. Senior Executive
  2. Structured Trade Finance Risk
  3. Financial Accounting and Reporting Manager
  4. Experienced Trade Operations
  5. Agribusiness Development Lawyer
  6. Junior Commodity Trader
  7. Junior Agricultural Analyst

Decision Time

Dear Subscriber,

We may be in the AgriBusiness and know the market influences but at the same time we need to watch the influences out of the box – political risk is certainly one of the most important:

Brexit – what will it mean for UK farmers and inter-EU/UK trade?
US Elections – does it matter who wins? The important question is, will the Fed raise the interest rate and when?

We, at VR-People, have seen a firm pick up in recruitment activity recently and expect more around the Global Grain Geneva. We look forward to seeing many friends and at the conference and if any would like to book in advance a meeting please let us know (peter@vr-people.com).

Please find below the most recent candidates we have interviewed and who are potentially open to change. Any interest from your side?

Plenty of Work – VR-People

Dear Subscriber,

United Kingdom democracy has played an interesting turn on voting to leave the EU. First Article 50 has to be triggered and then bi-lateral agreements made, hopefully amicably but may take years. Greenland left in 1985, taking two years to negotiate with a population of 55’000, and only one product: fish.

Too early to know what it means for employment contacts but we feel sure all parties still want the best people in the best place!

In the meantime here below are the most recent candidates we have interviewed and who are potentially open to change. Any interest from your side?

Who’s in this Perusal:

  1. Trading Manager Grains
  2. Country Manager / Controller
  3. Talented Young Trader
  4. Trade Finance Manager APAC
  5. Sugar Analyst and Futures Trader
  6. Trade Operations, Execution, and Planning
  7. Trade Execution Operator
